The prominent symptom of esophageal cancer patients is dysphagia, which is also a serious problem for esophageal cancer patients in terms of diet. Most esophageal cancer patients’ dysphagia occurs gradually and is progressively aggravated. At the beginning, patients only have choking sensation when eating dry food, which is gradually aggravated and even develops to the point that they have difficulty in eating soft food and semi-fluid food, and eventually they have complete difficulty in drinking and eating, which makes the nutritional status of patients worse and worse, and finally leads to malignant fluid. From this, it can be seen that difficulty in feeding is a very serious problem for esophageal cancer patients. For diagnosed early and middle stage esophageal cancer patients, they should seize the opportunity to increase nutrition comprehensively, give them soft food or semi-fluid food containing high protein and high vitamin, and utilize their gastrointestinal absorption function as much as possible to replenish nutrition, so as to make the patients have a better physical condition. In order to make chemotherapy go on smoothly, rich nutritious food should be provided in conjunction with drug treatment, so as to improve the body’s tolerance to the toxic side effects of anticancer drugs. During chemotherapy, patient’s diet should be mainly high-calorie and high-protein, such as chicken, duck, fish, shrimp, lean meat, eggs, etc., so as to play an auxiliary therapeutic role. Diet should be diversified and attention should be paid to dietary matching, with a view to complementing each other with various nutrients and improving the body’s immunity. If you have five heart heat, Yin deficiency symptoms, should eat silver fungus porridge or with American ginseng 0.15 grams steeped as tea. If economic conditions permit, turtle soup can be stewed. Cooking should pay attention to color, aroma and taste, preferably steamed, boiled and stewed, no or less smoked, fried and baked food, less pickled food, no smoking, no alcohol, alcohol can activate many carcinogens and reduce immune function. The staple food of chemotherapy patients can be chosen according to their dietary habits and tastes, such as buns, dumplings, wontons, noodles, etc. Patients with poor appetite can eat less food. Patients with poor appetite can eat less and more meals. Esophageal cancer is different from other tumors, it is not poor appetite, but difficulty in swallowing and inability to eat, which causes the consumption of the organism, so it should try to eat more diets that can enter the esophagus, such as semi-fluid and full-fluid, pay attention to the quality of semi-fluid and full-fluid, don’t restrict the calorie, and make the diets of rich nutrients, soft and delicate meals, easy to be digested and absorbed, and make the diets of homogenized meal, elemental meal and mixed milk, etc., if necessary. Homogenized diet is the normal human diet after removing thorns and bones, with high-speed tissue masher stirred into paste, containing nutrients similar to the normal diet, but in vitro has been crushed, very easy to digest and absorb, can avoid long-term single diet, and can prevent constipation.
