Many of the foods we eat in life are not good for patients with tumor disease, so what is good to eat in the advanced stage of lung tumor? Here is the introduction of how to take care of lung tumor in advanced stage? Once lung tumor patients reach the advanced stage, life is very short for advanced patients, and it is especially cherished, so the dietary supplement for advanced lung tumor patients is very important at this time. Here experts from Shanghai Yuanda Cardiothoracic Hospital suggest that patients with advanced lung tumor should have reasonable dietary regulation, which is helpful to prolong the survival of patients. There are two requirements for the diet of patients with advanced lung tumor: firstly, the diet should be appropriately increased; secondly, the appropriate diet should be given according to different treatment methods. The consumption and poor appetite of lung tumor patients due to lung tumor cause the objective indicator of whether the need and calorie intake are sufficient. Weight standard can be determined according to age, gender and height. Experts from Shanghai Yuanda Cardiothoracic Hospital introduce that a more common convenient method is to compare oneself before and after the disease, before and after the treatment. If the weight loss indicates that the income is not enough, it is necessary to increase the diet. Late stage of lung tumor can affect the risk of lung tumor. Nutritional research shows that among smokers, those who consume more fruits and vegetables have a reduced risk of lung tumor, but in these foods, no certain nutrient is found to have a deliberate check statistics found that when lung tumor patients lose more than 6% of their body weight, after applying anti-tumor drugs, attention should be paid to strengthening nutrition, and 50% of patients can get efficacy, if only anti-tumor drugs are used, only 20% of patients get therapeutic effect. The diet of lung tumor in advanced stage should be increased appropriately, because lung tumor patients consume a lot, therefore, the protein and calories should be increased 20% more than the need of normal people. If malnutrition has developed, more protein can be supplemented. The protein intake should preferably be vegetable protein and some animal protein. In addition, attention should be paid to choosing low-fat, low-salt and vitamin-rich and mineral foods, which are beneficial to the treatment and recovery of lung tumor patients. To arrange the diet for advanced lung tumor, besides considering the above nutritional factors. Attention should also be paid to make full use of the anti-giving factors in food. Certain foods can induce tumor, while others can be anti-tumor, lung tumor patients should try to avoid eating tumor-inducing foods. Patients with lung tumor should avoid eating tumor-inducing foods and eat more anti-tumor foods. According to research, common anti-tumor foods include cruciferous vegetables (such as cabbage and cauliflower, etc.), radish, garlic, sour plum, soybean, beef, etc. The diet of advanced lung tumor should not only focus on its content, but also consider its hobbies and eating environment. Experts from Shanghai Yuanda Cardiothoracic Hospital emphasize that eating one’s favorite food can increase the secretion of gastric juice, which can promote appetite and improve the absorption and utilization of food. In addition, the eating environment can also affect the appetite of patients, so a pleasant eating environment should be created for patients. Due to the different treatments that lung tumor patients receive, the diet of advanced lung tumor patients should be appropriate according to the specific treatment methods. For example, patients who receive radiotherapy and chemotherapy often have abnormal taste and anorexia, and everything they eat becomes bitter or tastes wrong. The way to deal with: eat more high-protein, high-nutrition food and fresh fruits, vegetables, etc.; in the food to increase the seasoning; do more color, flavor and shape of the food to cause appetite; before the meal
Drink a small glass of acidic beverage before meal. Food is the material basis for the recovery of tumor patients, patients should pay attention to the diet of advanced lung tumor and provide reasonable and sufficient nutrition, which can enhance the resistance of the body, improve the patient’s tolerance to treatment, ensure the smooth completion of the treatment plan and promote recovery.
It can enhance the body resistance, improve the patient’s tolerance to treatment, ensure the smooth completion of treatment plan and promote recovery. Because many people lack scientific knowledge of nutrition, there are often some incorrect ideas and practices in nutrition for tumors. For example, they worry that eating more or being more nutritious will provide more nutrients for the growth of lung tumor, and some people even starve the patient, trying to starve the lung tumor cells to death, which are not scientifically based. On the contrary, many facts show that malnutrition is extremely detrimental to patients’ treatment and recovery, such as patients’ slow recovery after surgery, poor tolerance to traditional radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and leads to low immune function, causing infection and even deterioration of failure. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to food nutrition for lung tumor patients.
