Hi welcome to Chat Doctor forum.  The causes of the dysarthria, and dysphagia, may be head injury, stroke, Parkinson disease, Lyme disease, myasthenia graves, intracranial pressure, and hypotension etc. You are concerned with the relief, and not the cause, anyhow you may need to have C.T. Scan of the brain and other tests for confirmation of the diagnosis.  Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and protein rich foods to support the recovery.  Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
