What should prostate cancer patients eat

For prostate cancer patients, treatment should be combined with a reasonable diet to achieve good results, and it must be adjusted through diet. Therefore, the diet of prostate cancer patients is very important and we should pay attention to it. So, what should prostate cancer patients eat?

In the treatment of prostate cancer, radiotherapy is often used, which has certain side effects. The most obvious is the decrease in white blood cells. In order to effectively prevent the decrease in blood count, in the diet of late prostate cancer, patients should supplement high-protein diets, such as milk, soybeans, lean meat, pig's trotters, sea cucumbers, fish, animal livers, red dates, peanuts, walnuts, black fungus, carrots, red beans, etc. River crabs, black fish, beef, animal-made gelatin such as donkey hide gelatin (ejiao) and pig hide gelatin (roupi gelatin) can also help increase white blood cells.

During the recovery process of prostate cancer patients, what patients need to do is to actively undergo treatment and reexamination, and to maintain the nutrition needed by the body, it is necessary to pay attention to the diet of prostate cancer. It is very good for patients to eat more fruits, which can supplement a lot of vitamins.

There are many fruits suitable for prostate cancer patients, and most of them are common fruits in daily life and are very easy to get. For example, tomatoes. Tomatoes and carrots contain a lot of beta-carotene, which can help your body absorb lycopene in tomatoes and may reduce the risk of prostate cancer by 32%. Oranges contain tangerine, tartaric acid and vitamin C. Studies have found that a diet rich in vitamin C can reduce the risk of prostate cancer by 23%. Like tomatoes, watermelons also contain a lot of lycopene. A one-inch slice of watermelon contains the same lycopene as four tomatoes. If you don't like eating cabbage, you should listen to this research result. A study involving 1,200 men found that those who insisted on eating cabbage had a 41% lower risk of prostate cancer. Whole wheat tortillas contain selenium and a lot of fiber. Canadian researchers found that foods containing sufficient soluble fiber can reduce pSA levels in the body. pSA is a sign of prostate cancer.

Healthy people should also pay attention to their diet for prostate cancer, which is a common measure to prevent the disease. In addition, studies have shown that benign prostatic hyperplasia, excessive obesity, lack of exercise, smoking, radiation or sexually transmitted viruses may increase the incidence of prostate cancer. Older men with relevant risk factors need to be vigilant, give up bad eating and living habits, and exercise moderately, which may be meaningful for the prevention of prostate cancer.

These things about diet are what everyone should pay attention to, and they are also what we should understand during the treatment process. Sometimes, treatment is carried out through diet, because diet can regulate the patient's body well and can also regulate the patient's other organs. I hope these are useful to everyone.
