In the early and middle stages of the disease, it is advisable to eat foods with warming channels, dispelling cold and dampness, dilating blood vessels and warm food; But to avoid cold food. It is advisable to eat food with the function of nourishing yin and clearing heat in the later stage; Instead, we should avoid warm, fragrant and dry foods, as well as spicy and irritating foods, tobacco and alcohol.
Food therapy for thromboangiitis obliterans,
The following foods are suitable for patients with thromboangiitis obliterans in the early and middle stages due to yang deficiency and cold coagulation.
1, mutton:
Mutton is warm and sweet, and has the effects of warming qi and blood and warming yang. Patients with thromboangiitis obliterans due to yang deficiency and cold coagulation should eat mutton. You can follow the famous recipe in the synopsis of the golden chamber-angelica and ginger mutton soup, simmer mutton with ginger and angelica, eat meat and drink soup, which is still quite beneficial.
2. Pepper:
Pepper is hot and pungent, and has the effect of dispelling cold pathogens in gastrointestinal tract. However, eating pepper at the early stage of feeling cold pathogen exogenous can also play a role in preventing angiitis obliterans. For example, "Compendium of Materia Medica" said: "Those with cold phlegm accumulation and limbs like ice are really important products."
3. Ginger:
It is warm in nature and pungent in taste, and has the effect of dispelling cold and warming meridians. Modern medicine believes that gingerol, the main component of ginger, can stimulate blood vessels, which can make the heart beat faster, blood vessels dilate and blood flow faster, thus making the whole body feel warm. At the same time, the increase of blood flow to the skin can promote the opening of pores on the body surface, and sweat oozing from pores can excrete some harmful substances. This is exactly what Chinese medicine calls "sweating to relieve exterior syndrome, expelling cold and evil", which has the effect of warming meridians and dredging collaterals for patients with thromboangiitis obliterans invaded by cold and dampness.
4, scallion:
It is warm in nature and pungent in taste, and has the effect of dispelling cold and warming meridians. Therefore, it is most appropriate for patients with thromboangiitis obliterans to eat scallion at the beginning of a cold. For example, "Bielu" contains: "Scallion is used to treat typhoid bone pain." "Medicine Heart Method" also has: "Activating Yang Qi and Dispelling Wind." Li Shizhen thinks it can "relieve rheumatism, pain and paralysis". Zhang also said: "The scallion stems are mainly divergent, so as to connect the upper and lower yang."
5. Pepper:
It is warm in nature and pungent in taste, and has the effect of dispelling cold and warming. As early as Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica, it was recorded that "treating wind and evil spirits, except cold arthralgia, disjointed muscle killing and cold-dampness arthralgia." "Bielu" also said: "In addition to the cold of six fu organs, open phlegm, dredge blood vessels and adjust joints."
Therefore, people who feel cold, especially those who are wet and cold, are most suitable for eating at the early stage of cold and dampness invasion, which can prevent thromboangiitis obliterans. You can use 60 grams of Zanthoxylum bungeanum, add a bowl and a half of water, fry to half a bowl, take it after heating, and then cover it with sweat to dispel the evil of cold and dampness.
In addition, patients with thromboangiitis obliterans should eat more high-quality protein foods and warm fruits, such as peaches, cherries, bean products, animal livers, beef, chicken, loach, herring, crucian carp, lean meat, eggs, milk, silver carp, kumquat and chestnuts, in order to supplement the body's nutrition, ensure adequate calorie intake, and enhance disease resistance, which is conducive to the recovery of the disease.
In the late stage of thromboangiitis obliterans, when there is yin injury and heat toxicity, you should eat auricularia, tremella, lotus seeds, peanuts, carrots, turtles, silky fowl, lean meat, eggs, milk, white lentils, broad beans, red beans, black beans, Chinese cabbage, yam, coix seed, beef, cauliflower, cowpea, potato and taro.
Dietotherapy can play an auxiliary role in the treatment of diseases, regulate people's physique and help drugs play a greater role. But when the condition is serious, you still need to seek medical treatment. In terms of eating habits, food can be divided into cold, hot and cold. It is necessary to combine different diseases, different constitutions and other factors for "diet therapy" and not be too casual.
