Hi and thank you so much for this query.
Please, there is no point in watching your meals after a typhoid infection. Typhoid is waterborne and this means your meals and water should be well handled and fro trusted sources to avoid re-infection. Feel free to eat everything that you wish and have. What I must insist on is to make sure is is clean through thorough washing and proper handling to avoid infections. Also, get drinking water from a trusted source.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarification if need be.
