What to eat for lacunar infarct.
Lacunar stroke is a type of cerebral infarction caused by small vessel disease that leads to the occlusion of cerebral vessels. Therefore, the dietary recommendations for lacunar stroke are similar to those for general stroke. For patients who are overweight, it is important to control body weight. It is recommended to reduce the intake of animal liver and other organ meats, as well as foods high in cholesterol or fat. It is advisable to consume high-quality proteins such as milk, duck, fish, and soy products. The intake of pork, beef, and lamb, especially fatty cuts, should be minimized and lean meats should be emphasized. Additionally, it is beneficial to consume more vitamin-rich foods such as tomatoes and fruits, and to increase the intake of vegetables. Diets should be light and avoid excessive salt intake to prevent hypertension, which can also lead to lacunar stroke.
