Bhaktivedanta Hospital is a multispecialty hospital, situated
at Mira Road, Dist. Thane, India. Department of Dietetics and
Applied Nutrition is functional since 1998. The department provides
“Satvik Prasad” (Nutritious and Pious Diet) to all hospitalized
patients. According to Bhagavad Gita, food cooked has to be offered
to The Lord and then honored as Prasadam. In Bhaktivedanta Hospital
the food cooked for the patients is also offered to Lord Krishna to
nourish the Soul with the mercy of The Lord.
Personalized patient diet care is the prime concern of the
department. Different kinds of diets are prepared as per the
patient’s clinical condition.
● Food does not contain onion, garlic, meat, tea and
coffee.
● Food is prepared as per the seasonal availability of
different food items.
● We try to provide homely food to the patients.
● Even though we provide diet food, we take efforts to make it
delicious, which is also appreciated by the patients. We have a
valuable support from Shri Sadashiv Das of Shri Radha Govind
Caterers
● The dieticians specially prepare, taste and calculate the
nutritive value of the recipes provided on this website. (Nutritive
values are calculated according to the Indian Values. Source:
