How can patients with gastric cancer eat more scientifically

Because the lesions of gastric cancer are in the stomach, the impact of diet on gastric cancer is relatively large. In order to avoid the adverse effects of diet and promote the treatment of gastric cancer, we should have a scientific eating habit that can ensure nutrition while minimizing damage to the stomach.

First of all, we must ensure the intake of nutrition, mainly protein. Poultry eggs, milk, lean meat, fish and soy products can be selected according to the patient's digestive ability. At the same time, carbohydrates that provide energy should also be supplemented. Pay attention to eating more fresh fruits and vegetables to ensure the body's needs for vitamins and trace elements. It is best to cook the food well before eating to minimize the content of crude vitamins in the food. Liquid feeding or fruit juice can also be used.

For those with anorexia, you can choose to eat small meals frequently, choose some concentrated high-quality protein, and pay attention to the allocation of food to increase the patient's appetite. For those with severe anorexia or inability to eat, nasogastric or intravenous nutrition can be used to supplement nutrition, and at the same time, pay attention to the cleanliness and comfort of the eating environment.

In order to avoid gastric mucosal damage, patients should avoid high-salt, hard, hot foods, overeating, and eating small meals frequently at regular times. Food should be fresh and generally light.

The above is some introduction on how patients with gastric cancer can eat scientifically and rationally. Dietary adjustment can change the patient's appetite and enhance the patient's nutrition, thereby enhancing the patient's body resistance and bravely fighting against gastric cancer.
