Unlike gastrointestinal surgery, a normal diet can be resumed on the first day after lung cancer surgery. According to the size of surgery and recovery status of each patient, you can drink water 8 hours after waking up from anesthesia and eat liquid food 12 hours after surgery. Breakfast on the first day after surgery can be a semi-liquid diet, of course, light and thin rice or thin vegetable porridge is better, such as noodle soup, thin vegetable porridge or egg soup. It is especially important to remind the family that the recipe must be determined according to the patient’s perennial eating habits, especially the patient’s breakfast habits developed over the years. Never start taking nourishing thick meat soup or thick chicken soup on the first day after surgery! The diet for 8-24 hours after surgery is mainly to restore the function of digestive tract, and it is better not to take milk and fruit juices as the former is likely to cause bloating, and the latter is also likely to lead to diarrhea if not fresh or improperly preserved. No matter what, lung cancer patients should start with clear flow after surgery, and food should be light, fine and soft, easy to digest and absorb mainly, because surgical trauma will cause dysfunction of digestive system, so don’t rush in food selection and supplementation. Modern lung cancer surgery is different from traditional lung cancer surgery. Most hospitals adopt minimally invasive lung cancer surgery in thoracic surgery, and patients can get out of bed on the second day and have their chest drains removed on the 24th-48th hours after surgery according to the chest drainage. Therefore, the patient can resume normal diet (general diet) on the first day after surgery with Chinese food and dinner, but must focus on light food. Modern minimally invasive surgery for lung cancer, especially thoracoscopic lobectomy, is a minimally invasive surgery, which can be completed in 1-2 hours and can be discharged from hospital in 4-6 days after surgery. Therefore, there is no special requirement for postoperative diet, and it is very important to resume normal diet as soon as possible. It is not necessary to emphasize nourishment, but only to seek normal diet. The need for chemotherapy or molecular targeted therapy is decided according to the postoperative pathology report and clinical stage. For patients who need chemotherapy we emphasize the combination of Chinese and Western medicine, and these patients should pay attention to dietary adjustment under the guidance of a nutritionist. If adjuvant chemotherapy is not needed according to the postoperative genetic test results, but only targeted therapy is needed, there is no special requirement for diet. In autumn, it is advisable to eat more foods that produce fluid and moisten the lungs, nourish Yin and clear dryness, such as sesame, silver fungus, lotus root, pear, banana, apple, olive, longan, loquat, honey, duck and fresh vegetables. All of the big spicy hot, spicy frying and other hot and dry food should not eat more. Autumn is the peak season for the production of potatoes. Potato food has a strong body, which is rich in B vitamins and potassium, magnesium and other minerals. Traditionally, it is believed that potato foods can supplement the middle energy, and modern research also believes that they are good for preventing obesity and many chronic diseases when eaten as a staple food. Eating yams, sweet potatoes, taro and potatoes regularly as a replacement for refined white rice and noodles is a very good health measure.
