Milk is a widely recognized nutritious drink, and we basically drink it every day, but I don’t know if it is good for stomach cancer patients to drink milk for recovery? I believe many people would like to know, right? Then let’s take a look at the specific explanation from relevant experts. We hope more patients can use it for reference.
Usually, cancer patients’ sense of taste will be diminished, their appetite will be reduced and their digestive function is very poor. Small amount and multiple meals should be adopted, with thin rice and pasta as the main food. The total daily calorie intake from food for cancer patients should be no less than the minimum requirement for normal people, and should be mainly high quality protein, such as eggs, milk, meat and soybean products.
Cancer patients are a special group of people because on the one hand, they have to resist cancer cells and their body needs a lot of energy, on the other hand, there are many dietary taboos, so many patients do not know how to eat.
Stomach cancer: eat more fish, drink less milk Can stomach cancer patients drink milk? This question is asked by many patients’ family members.
Gastric cancer patients should not drink milk in the early stage after gastric resection because it may cause diarrhea, and in the late stage, they should drink less milk. Diet should be based on strengthening the spleen and stomach, meat can be pork and duck, but not chicken in general, and beef and mutton should be eaten sparingly. Rabbit meat should be stewed, not braised. You should eat more fish with scales, such as grass carp, carp, yellow croaker, silver carp, etc., and less fish without scales, such as eel, etc.
Stomach cancer is most “close” to these types of people
1.People with unhealthy life
For example, people who eat irregular meals, overeat, often eat heavy food such as pickled, moldy, smoked and baked, smoke and drink for a long time;
Do not like to exercise, overweight or obese;
Love to sulk, poor mood.
2.People with history of gastric disease
Especially those who have precancerous lesions of stomach cancer, such as chronic atrophic gastritis, chronic gastric ulcer, intestinal polyp and those who have part of their stomach removed.
3.People who are infected with Helicobacter pylori
4.People with family history of gastric cancer or esophageal cancer
For example, mom and dad are gastric cancer patients.
5.People over 40 years old, especially men
Early gastric cancer is like gastritis, how to detect it?
Among the common cancers in China, stomach cancer ranks second.
What’s more frightening is that the latest data from the 2017 International Stomach Cancer Conference shows that there are about 680,000 new cases of stomach cancer in China every year, accounting for about half of the world!
Stomach cancer is raging, and most patients are already in the middle and late stages when they are diagnosed.
This is because the symptoms of stomach cancer in the early stage are not typical and similar to many common stomach diseases.
However, if you are vigilant, you can still find some “clues” of early gastric cancer –
1. Abdominal discomfort that cannot be relieved, including
Stuffy stomach, loss of appetite, indigestion with acidity, and most of them have no causative factors and oral medication is not effective;
2, weight loss in a short period of time, such as a sudden weight loss of 5 kg in a month, should be alerted to whether it is stomach cancer or other malignant tumors. Along with weight loss, there is also fatigue and weakness.
3.Blood in stool or obvious darkening of stool.
4.Unexplained anemia. Stomach cancer can cause bleeding in the stomach, so anemia may also be one of the early symptoms of stomach cancer.
Of course, as mentioned above, it is still difficult to determine stomach cancer just by looking at the symptoms. Therefore, to determine whether the stomach disease is benign or malignant, it is recommended that high-risk groups and people with the above-mentioned physical problems are better to detect early gastric cancer through regular gastroscopy.
