Avoid eating tilt syndrome. Pay attention to diet after gastric cancer surgery.

Many patients with gastric cancer often have food dumping syndrome after operation, mainly because the stomach has been removed. If patients do not change their eating habits, symptoms such as colic, nausea, dizziness or diarrhea may occur after eating. Shi Xiaoting, a nutritionist at Changhua Christian Hospital, pointed out that after partial gastrectomy, the relative gastric capacity is reduced, and patients only need to eat a small amount, which will have an impact on nutrient absorption. In particular, postoperative adverse reactions may recur, and patients should establish new eating habits and maintain good nutritional intake to avoid food dumping syndrome and other reactions. Shi Xiaoting said that sugary foods such as sweets are more likely to aggravate symptoms. It is suggested that patients should be evaluated by a nutritionist, adjust their nutritional needs and help improve their symptoms. In order to relieve postoperative discomfort, patients should take a semi-sitting position when eating, and lie flat for 20 to 30 minutes immediately after meals, which is helpful to slow down the gastric emptying speed; Shi Xiaoting added that if you want to eat liquid food, you should also eat between meals to slow down the speed of food entering the small intestine. Patients can supplement nutritious food in a small amount of meals in time to avoid excessive weight loss. After surgery, the human body usually loses its vitality. Although food supplement can quickly replenish physical strength, we should be careful in diet because the body has not fully adapted after operation. Shi Xiaoting said that patients with gastric cancer surgery should especially master the dietary principles and gradually increase the sugar content in order to recover as soon as possible.
