juice of pomegranate, munaka soaked over night , dates soaked overnight, anjir soaked over night, beet root, any of these can be had if sugar is controlled or their dose can be adjusted, otherwise punarnava mandur is the drug of choice which will help in keeping createnine under control and also increase Hb.

your father has a diabetic nephropathy that too advanced
kidney functions of ur father are below 25%,75 have been lost
Erythopioten is not secreated by kidneys
UR father needs erythopioten with iron therapy
and probably blood transfusion
No diet can increase the HB of UR father
plz consult a nephrologist
take care
