I believe it is important to eat foods that are as high in nutrition as possible as well as making sure you have a balanced diet. Over time, you will probably want to vary your diet by being creative with various sauces and small amounts of spices to change things up.

Here are a list of nutritious foods to work into your diet:
- fresh or dried fruit and fruit juices
- fresh vegetables
- dairy products - cottage cheese, milk, eggnog, milkshakes
- soups
- drink lots of fluids
- try different types of meat with various sauces

You may want to avoid the following foods:
- spicy or hot foods
- acidic foods - oranges, tomatos
- hot liquids such as coffee or tea
- course foods like chips, raw vegetables, crackers, and nuts (you may soak some of these in liquid to soften)
