Hello and thanks for your query.
I shall make an effort to provide you with good professional recommendations specific to your questions.
Yes, you are right.Protein intake is necessary for fighting TB infection.
Egg white is fine as much as milk in the presence of elevated cholesterol levels for your mother. Only the egg yolk has cholesterol and should be avoided.
Pyridoxine is prophylactically given to counter the side effects of Isoniazid. So, a generous intake of XXXXXXX leafy vegetables is good. A balanced diet is all that is necessary more than anything else.
Yet again, I duly appreciate your query to me, I do hope that you have found something useful to help you and I shall be glad to answer any further apprehensions.
Sincerely,
