What should be the diet mindset of cancer patients in recovery

After standardized treatment, cancer patients have to pay attention to the diet and living during the recovery period. For this reason, patients should pay attention to the following matters during the recovery period. One is to avoid excessive taboos and blind tonic. The diet during the recovery period should have the following functions: to help patients successfully complete further treatments and reduce side effects; to support the essence of the body and improve the immunity of the body; to nourish the blood and restore the blood picture and increase the number of white blood cells; to appetite and strengthen the spleen, improve appetite and adjust the function of the stomach and intestines. But do not go to extremes – excessive taboos and blind tonicity. Diversify your diet and choose plant-based meals rich in vitamin-rich vegetables and fruits and legumes of all kinds. To maintain adequate protein intake to enhance the immunity of the body. If the patient is averse to greasy meat and fishy food, he can switch to some protein-rich non-meat foods, such as bean foods. Roughly processed foods should be consumed as much as possible. Avoid excessive consumption of fish, meat and greasy food. If you have dry mouth and nausea, you should avoid stimulating food. For meat, you can choose lean meat, chicken, rabbit and fresh fish, fresh shrimp and fresh eggs and other high-protein foods according to your taste. In order to enhance the immune function of the body, you can use yam, mushroom, mushroom, silver fungus, lily, asparagus and other foods. Second, is to maintain a good state of mind. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that “tranquility and emptiness, the true essence of the storage. If the spirit is kept within, the disease will come from there”. After cancer diagnosis, patients should try to maintain a stable and calm state of mind. Patients should learn some methods of self-psychological adjustment, such as choosing their favorite sports and cultural activities, so that they can be relieved and released in recreational activities. You can also create a good living environment, such as arranging flowers, listening to relaxing music, etc., so that patients feel warm and quiet, relaxed and happy, can be in a comfortable atmosphere at ease, conducive to early recovery. Third, is the exercise to moderate. Exercise can help to harmonize qi and blood, smooth the meridians, and cultivate and mobilize one’s own anti-cancer ability. Exercise in moderation is beneficial to the recovery of cancer patients and can prevent the deterioration of the disease; however, appropriate exercise should be arranged according to one’s condition, and not excessive exercise.
