Dietary principle
It is not advisable to blindly avoid eating.
It is often said that cancer patients should avoid eating chicken, eggs and seafood, which is actually unreasonable. Western medicine has no taboos for cancer patients, but only thinks that diet has a certain relationship with the onset of cancer, and foods that can cause cancer should naturally not be eaten. In fact, chicken can replenish vitality, and all tumor patients with weak body and insufficient vitality can eat it. Some people think seafood is "hairy" and dare not eat it. In fact, Shanghai fresh food is rich in protein and trace elements, and its nutritional value is superior to other meats. Many seafood products have the function of softening and resolving hard mass. For cancer patients, in principle, they can eat whatever they want, which can arouse their appetite and enhance their physique. If the patient wants to eat but can't eat, long-term nutritional deficiency will aggravate the condition.
Diet regulation of chemotherapy patients
Reasonable diet and nutrition can not only inhibit the development of cancer, but also reduce the side effects of drugs. Therefore, adjusting diet and increasing nutrition during chemotherapy is one of the important prerequisites. The principle of diet aftercare is high calorie, high protein, high vitamins and proper amount of inorganic salts. The intake of high-calorie foods, such as rice, flour and miscellaneous grains, can not only ensure the basic needs of the human body, but also promote the tissue repair of hair, mucosa and muscle after chemotherapy and increase the immune function of the body. It is generally believed that in the process of chemotherapy, patients need 25% ~ 30% more protein than ordinary people. In addition, fresh fruits and vegetables can provide more vitamins and inorganic salts, so patients should be encouraged to eat more fruits and vegetables.
