What taboos does gastric cancer diet have

summary

Some time ago, my uncle always felt that he had a bad stomachache, so he went to the hospital for an examination. As a result, he was found to have gastric cancer. The doctor said some things to pay attention to, especially the diet. Now let me tell you what taboos there are in the diet for gastric cancer.

What taboos does gastric cancer diet have

First: eat less or no smoky or moldy food. Smoked food contains higher nitrite, which is a carcinogen. Moldy food contains mold, it is also easy to cause cancer. Therefore, these foods should be eaten less, especially salted fish, which not only contains high salinity, but also contains a large number of nitroso compounds and polycyclic hydrocarbons. The latter can directly cause cancer, while the former can synthesize carcinogenic nitrosamines under the action of low acid or bacteria. Moldy food and grain, especially Aspergillus versicolor pollution, may be one of the carcinogenic factors.

Second: do not eat stimulating food. Irritant food, such as spicy food, will cause great stimulation to the stomach and cause damage to the stomach. Gastric function of patients with gastric cancer is relatively poor, rough food will increase the load of the stomach, beyond a certain limit, it is also a serious damage to the stomach. Tobacco and alcohol can not only stimulate the stomach, but also contain harmful substances, especially for patients with gastric cancer. So gastric cancer patients should not eat spicy, coarse food.

Third: diet should not be too salty. Under normal circumstances, the stomach itself has a very strict and perfect self-protection mechanism, namely gastric mucosal barrier. High salt diet can increase the sensitivity of gastric epithelial cells to carcinogens, such as nitroso compounds. The incidence of gastric cancer is high in high salt diet areas, whether in Japan or in China. Therefore, one of the dietary taboos of gastric cancer patients is not to eat salty food.

matters needing attention

Gastric cancer patients usually had better eat some easy to digest food, in order to prevent huge pressure on the stomach, must not eat greasy stimulating food, there is another point is to control the intake of salt, usually the food should be low salt.
