This question is especially important for stomach cancer patients. To drive away stomach cancer and restore a healthy body, you have to pay attention to daily diet recipes, which is also an important step in the treatment process. What to pay attention to in stomach cancer diet and what can and cannot be eaten? Many patients think that cancer patients cannot eat “hairy” food or it is best not to eat meat and vegetables, which is actually a misconception. The principle of stomach cancer diet is to use digestible food, food rich in protein and fat and cooked badly, and to minimize the content of crude fiber in food. It must be noted that indigestible rough food can aggravate the patient’s condition. Patients with stomach cancer should avoid eating too much or too much, both of which have bad effects on the condition of patients with stomach cancer. If you eat too much, it will lead to over-expansion of gastric sinus and increase of gastric acid, which will harm the stomach and aggravate the condition. Conversely, it will also cause damage to the stomach. Therefore, stomach cancer patients should try to avoid these two situations. Depending on their condition, stomach cancer patients can eat pastries and dried buns with less sugar content in addition to their regular three meals. Especially baked dried steamed bread, because almost all of its water evaporates and starch becomes easily digestible dextrin, which can neutralize stomach acid in stomach after patients fully chew and eat it, thus reducing stomach acid’s stimulation and corrosion on stomach, which is beneficial to stomach cancer treatment. Second, vegetables and meat should be selective. In the selection of vegetables and meat, it is necessary to eat foods that are easy to digest, contain enough heat but in small amount, contain protein, vitamin A, or vitamin B, or carotene. For example: thin rice, young noodles, soft rice, soy milk, mushrooms, etc. Avoid foods that are fried or deep-fried, and foods that contain a lot of coarse fiber, such as: leeks, bean sprouts, ham, bacon, dried fish, etc. It is important to avoid foods with high salt content and strong stimulation, such as: pickled foods, spicy foods, ginger, wine, etc. At the same time, also can not eat too hard, too hot, too cold food, these foods will have some damage to the stomach. Third, the food must be fresh If the food is to be placed for a longer period of time, it must be stored scientifically to avoid the patient to eat moldy food. In addition, patients should eat more fresh vegetables and fruits to increase the intake of protein, but do not eat too much to avoid causing indigestion of the stomach. The intake of high quality protein can enhance the immunity of patients and make them further resist stomach cancer. In order to avoid dry stools, it is also necessary to eat foods that can lax the bowels, such as agar, banana and honey. Because patients mostly have symptoms of fullness, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms of loss of appetite, patients should eat easily digestible food, so as to reduce the stomach’s burden and avoid damage to the stomach. Eat soft food, main food and side dishes should be selected nutritious, easy to digest food, avoid eating raw and cold, fried, sour and spicy food and other stimulating easy flatulence, patients should chew and swallow slowly, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, do not eat high-fat food, pickled products, appropriate amount of iron minerals and vitamins, five, pay attention to protect the gastric mucosa patients in the diet to protect the gastric mucosa, patients should avoid high salt content, food hard, high temperature food, and Can not binge drinking, overeating, pay attention to the regular diet, but also eat less and more meals.
