- Ask your father to lose weight gradually if he is above his ideal body weight.
- Emphasize on quality of fat rather than quantity. Include omega 3 fats in the diet; this can be done in the form of adding flaxseeds and fish in the diet.
- Avoid red meat, margarine, oily or fried foods, sweet preparations like cakes, pastries, margarine, carbonated drinks.
- Choose correct cooking methods opt for steamed or grilled fish rather than fried fish.
- Include foods high in magnesium such as broccoli, spinach, potatoes, tofu and wheat germ.
- Include at least 8-9 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables in a days diet.
- Avoid taking any kind of stress or strain may it be physical or psychological.
