Can people with myocardial infarction eat meat?

People with myocardial infarction can eat meat, but should avoid fatty meats and instead consume lean meats that are high in quality protein and low in cholesterol, such as lean pork, lamb, beef, duck, and rabbit. These foods contain high-quality protein and are lower in cholesterol. During recovery, myocardial repair also requires high-quality protein. However, it is important not to consume too much meat to avoid indigestion. Additionally, it is beneficial to eat more fruits and vegetables that are rich in vitamins and trace elements.
