A Simple Nutrition Plan for Stroke Survivors: The 800-gram Challenge

from Stroke Recovery Rehab · host Blair Ames

After stroke, just the thought of planning a meal, cooking it, and cleaning all the dishes felt overwhelming for me.It seemed impossible that I could do all of that in a timely manner.As I was stuck at home with little energy to cook and no ability to go to the grocery store alone, I was reminded of the 800-gram challenge, a simple nutritional framework that encourages you to eat more fruits and vegetables.In this episode, I share my experiences with this simple diet challenge, which became the nutritional plan that I leaned on in the earliest weeks and months of recovery.For more information on nutritional strategies for stroke survivors, such as the 800-gram challenge, be sure to review the links and resources that I’ve included in this article: https://strokerecoveryrehab.com/2023/07/01/a-simple-nutrition-plan-for-stroke-recovery-the-800-gram-challenge/For more stroke recovery resources, read the free newsletter at https://strokerecoveryrehab.substack.com/ This is a public episode.
