This winter is not “cold” – a good remedy for GI tumor patients to spend winter Seasonal changes are a natural law, which happens year after year. It is because of the change of spring, summer, autumn and winter seasons that there is a bumper crop. Spring is born, summer is grown, autumn is harvested and winter is hidden; this is true for crops, and also for human beings. Cancer is not an infectious disease, and there is no seasonality in its attack. Unlike some infectious diseases which are seasonal and epidemic, such as respiratory tract infectious diseases in winter and spring, such as avian influenza which affects the whole world now, the government pays great attention to it and invests more to prevent and treat it; and digestive tract infectious diseases in summer. I am in the field of digestion, so today I will talk about the problem of digestive tract tumors. Gastrointestinal tumors account for the largest proportion of the cancer spectrum, including stomach cancer, esophageal cancer, liver cancer, intestinal cancer, pancreatic cancer, biliary tract cancer, etc. We often see and hear about them directly or insightfully. Their development is not related to the season, although some of them are detected in winter, in fact, the disease may not necessarily arise in winter, but may have already arisen in summer, but is only diagnosed in winter. Therefore, if you have digestive tract symptoms in winter, such as abdominal pain, abdominal rise, emaciation, jaundice, change in stool habit, mucus and blood stool, ascites, vomiting, and if you feel a lump in your sole ……, you should go to the hospital and do the necessary examinations to prevent the disease from happening, and in case a tumor is found, it can be treated early. My focus today is on what should be paid attention to in winter for digestive tract cancer. As we all know, winter is characterized by cold, long night and short day, a single branch of wax plum, more opportunities for family reunion, more food and good appetite ……, because nowadays, patients’ lives are prolonged or even cured due to better treatment, so they are bound to encounter winter. So there is still a relationship between digestive tract tumor patients and seasons, if not pay attention to protection, tumor patients suffer from other diseases that hit the immunity of the body, it will aggravate the tumor condition. So, how should digestive tumor patients spend the winter?1: Winter is cold first. This is good, wear more clothes, say air conditioning is popular, home air conditioning more open, outside the climate is cold, less go out. Now technology has progressed, living conditions have changed, do not have to be afraid of cold, winter has nothing to do. Here to go out less, because the winter is easy to respiratory infections, light is a cold, heavy is the flu virus infection, if there is SARS, you also have to worry about the transmission of SARS. Not only respiratory patients should beware of infections, even other diseases, such as cancer patients with low immunity, are also prone to infection. Respiratory tract infections are common because the respiratory tract is open, and always open, because we have to breathe, a breath of air breathing, airborne bacteria, viruses will easily enter the respiratory tract. Also in an environment, why are most people quite well? Because most of us have immunity, while tumor patients have low immunity in general and are prone to respiratory infections. Once infected, immunity will further decline and tumor recurrence and metastasis will be more frequent. What should be done? Go out less, go to less crowded public places. The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market. I remember watching a film of Mayor Chen Yi not long ago, which has a sentence “no money to fight meat to eat, sleep to raise the spirit. We now have money to eat meat, so sleep to nourish the spirit of the phrase is good. In modern science, sleep can improve immunity, tumor patients have poor immunity, so the long night and short day in winter is also beneficial, more sleep, of course, we do not advise people to sleep, I hope there are appropriate activities. Especially in winter when there is less sunshine and more cloudy days, people are not so uplifted and easily depressed, and some even commit suicide. The lack of sunlight in winter also affects the mood. I would like to advise cancer patients to be more careful because the mental stress is really great after having cancer. This disease is very serious and the treatment is also very difficult, but we should also see that some patients are in fact treated very well and many of them can be cured. The actual fact is that some patients can be cured. The elderly tend to see the moon is missing and the flowers are not very good emotionally. If it is a tumor patient, it is more likely to have a sad feeling, you see the flowers and leaves withered, trees also withered, and then think about how my disease how how. With the development of horticulture, there are many more flowers than just weeping plums. The prognosis of cancer is not good, but in fact there are many patients who can survive for a long time, some for three years, five years or longer. In fact, the five-year survival rate is not just five years, it cannot be interpreted literally, it is just a way to evaluate the treatment. There are significantly fewer recurrences and metastases after five years, but of course there are also recurrences after ten years. As science advances, as diagnosis advances, more and more can be cured. So although winter makes people feel sad, it is more important to think of the waxing plum alone. The prognosis of cancer is bad, but there are still many patients who survive for a long time, and many more are cured, and more and more. Don’t count another year, how about next year? It’s another year, and I’m fine! Must have a good mood.4: Wife and children are good to beat cancer. When the weather is cold, there are less activities outside, so there are more family reunions, especially for the elderly and patients with tumors. The couple is in harmony, love each other when they are young, and respect each other when they are old. In Western-style weddings, the minister or priest has a sentence, “Will you marry Mr. So-and-so, and will you marry Mr. So-and-so, and will you marry Mr. So-and-so? When I first heard it, I thought, “Why do people get married and say things that are bad luck, what with poverty and disease? After thinking about it, it makes sense. The couple should share the wealth and share the poverty together. If you have a disease, you should support each other and help each other. Respect and love between husband and wife is the foundation of family to overcome cancer. Of course, there are many foundations to overcome cancer, such as social foundation is to improve medical insurance, medical foundation is to improve the effectiveness of treatment, and so on. At the same time, it is the natural duty of children to respect their parents, which is also the foundation of family to overcome cancer. We human beings always pass on from generation to generation, and every person has parents and should be filial to them. Our country advocates the construction of spiritual civilization. If someone in a family suffers from cancer, if the husband and wife respect each other and the children respect their parents is the family foundation to overcome cancer.5: Increase nutrition to improve immunity. As mentioned earlier, we have a good appetite and eat a lot in winter, which is a good thing. Chinese medicine says that “the spleen and stomach are the basis of the afterlife”. The afterlife means that after birth, the growth and development process and the whole metabolism need a material basis, which is the digestion and absorption of food. 6: Some sayings are inaccurate, such as don’t eat too well, eat too well for cancer cells to absorb, and “starve cancer to death”, etc. Cancer cells absorb nutrients differently from normal cells, so we cannot have a “three-light” policy. In fact, cancer patients cannot keep up with nutrition in the late stage, so their immunity is poor and tumors grow fast. Medically speaking, to increase nutrition, we should eat more food with high quality protein such as milk, eggs, fish, etc., and more fresh vegetables and fruits (500g/day). A lot of people say that the meal is good, what fruit to eat, in fact, fruit is also very important, containing vitamins. Although there are also in vegetables, but once the vegetables are cooked vitamins are lost, the fruit original juice, the role is very good. Do not drink alcohol, alcohol has a cancer-promoting effect, not only liver tumors can not drink, other tumors can not drink, even beer can not drink. Of course, do not smoke, there are carcinogenic substances in the smoke, which is also bad for health. Some patients have poor appetite, what should they do? As long as the intestinal tract functions well and can be absorbed, nutrition should be strengthened, and food therapy is an important treasure. A philosopher once said, “Can spring be far away when winter arrives”? Friends, the beautiful spring of life is waiting for you. I wish you all a pleasant and fulfilling winter!
