Parkinson’s disease patients should avoid spicy, stimulating food, tobacco and alcohol.
Parkinson’s disease, also known as tremor paralysis, is a common neurodegenerative disease in middle-aged and old age, clinically manifested as resting tremor, bradykinesia, myotonia and postural balance disorders.
The diet of Parkinson’s disease patients should be adjusted in conjunction with the changes in their condition, with high-quality protein, high-calorie, easy-to-absorb diet as the principle. Patients with this disease try to avoid spicy and stimulating food, and should quit smoking and drinking at the same time. For patients with constipation or chewing and digestive dysfunction should be given the appropriate diet.
1. For patients with constipation, they should replenish water in time, and eat more vegetables and fruits and other foods rich in fiber to keep the stools smooth, in order to relieve bloating and constipation.
2. For patients with chewing ability and digestive dysfunction, easy-to-digest and easy-to-chew semi-liquid should be given priority, according to the principle of eating less and more meals.
When patients are diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, they should go to regular hospitals, receive standardized treatment under the guidance of professional doctors, and be given appropriate life and diet care to reduce the adverse effects of the disease.
