Patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma have been diagnosed, which has a great psychological and physical impact on the patients. Resulting in varying degrees of nutritional disorders and nutrient imbalance, coupled with radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgical treatment will appear adverse reactions, aggravating nutritional disorders. Rehabilitation through diet will help to correct and improve nutritional deficiencies and help prevent cancer recurrence. Dietary rehabilitation prescriptions are as follows:
(1) to carry out dietary rehabilitation as soon as possible to analyze the effect of nasopharyngeal carcinoma on the body and gastrointestinal tract, the effect of anticancer therapy and the psychological state of the patients. To formulate a reasonable diet rehabilitation plan, diet rehabilitation is an important part of the second treatment plan for nasopharyngeal carcinoma, which can not only improve the whole body condition, but also enhance the anti-cancer ability.
(2) protecting gastrointestinal function, nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients often have symptoms of loss of appetite and loss of taste. It is strictly forbidden to eat foods containing cancerous substances, such as salted fish, pickles, barbecue, canned vegetables, stale vegetables, etc. However, take more health products, nutrition and unnecessary drugs, so as not to increase gastrointestinal burden and adverse reactions.
(3) strive to increase appetite and pay attention to the stimulation of the aroma, color, taste and shape of food to the sensory organs of the human body, so as to enhance the appetite of patients. As long as it is beneficial to rehabilitation and treatment, patients can eat whatever they want, but do not overeat, prevent them from eating a single food day after day, or the "old three" always retain a "traditional diet", let alone avoid eating. It is necessary to enliven the atmosphere of eating. Patients should not eat "small stoves" alone, but should eat together with their families, children and parents. When eating, they should be happy, relaxed and happy, which will help to increase the food intake of patients. To increase the intake of foods rich in protein and low in fat, such as chicken, fish and shrimp, beef, rabbit, eggs, bean products, etc., the fat intake should be appropriately reduced to no more than 50 grams per day. Staple food should be a combination of coarse and fine grains, and food should be diversified.
(4) adequate intake of vegetables and fruits studies have shown that eating 400 grams of vegetables and fruits a day can reduce the carcinogenic rate by 30% to 40%. Eating enough vegetables and fruits during rehabilitation can help prevent the recurrence of nasopharyngeal cancer. The study also shows that the darker the color of anti-cancer vegetables, the better the anti-cancer effect. The sweeter the anti-cancer fruit is, the greater the anti-cancer effect is. The more vegetables and fruits you eat, the better the cancer prevention effect will be.
(5) it is strictly forbidden to eat mildew spoiled food and moldy grain not to eat crops such as food additives, pesticides, pesticides, vegetables and fruits contaminated by poisonous and harmful water, and grain.
