Can patients with thyroid cancer not eat mangosteen?

Patients with thyroid cancer can eat mangosteen. Mangosteen is rich in vitamins and has certain benefits for the health of patients with thyroid cancer, but it should not be consumed in excess, and patients with thyroid cancer should actively receive treatment.

1. Rich in vitamins: Thyroid cancer patients usually have hyperthyroidism, which consumes a lot of energy, so they need to supplement with high-quality protein and multiple vitamins. Mangosteen meets these requirements, so thyroid cancer patients can eat mangosteen in moderation;

2. Rich in cellulose: Mangosteen is rich in dietary fiber, which has a certain effect of promoting gastrointestinal motility and can relieve the symptoms of constipation in patients with thyroid cancer;

3. Others: Mangosteen contains a certain amount of minerals, such as calcium, iron, etc. Moderate consumption is good for the body and can supplement minerals for thyroid cancer patients.

However, it is not recommended for thyroid cancer patients to eat too much mangosteen, because mangosteen is a cool fruit after all, and excessive consumption may cause diarrhea and other symptoms. In addition, thyroid cancer patients should also eat more high-quality protein, such as chicken, beef, fish, etc., as well as more fresh vegetables and fruits, such as spinach, apples, etc. Pay attention to maintaining a good attitude and actively cooperate with doctors for treatment. Regularly check thyroid function after surgery, and take medications such as levothyroxine sodium tablets for a long time as prescribed by the doctor.
