“I just had surgery, so I can’t eat chicken, mutton, or mutton, so that the wound won’t heal.”

“Just discharged from the hospital, these meat and eggs are all raw You can’t eat anything, it will relapse.”

We often hear “fat” in the mouths of the older generation, ranging from cancer, surgery, small When it comes to colds and broken skins, when these situations occur, the elders will especially tell the “hair objects” not to eat. What is this mysterious-sounding “hair thing”? Can cancer patients need a taboo? What foods should you avoid?

1. Can’t eat mutton and chili with cancer?

Fish, shrimp and chicken are regarded as hair products in the eyes of many people. The concept of hair is not clear, it does not exist in nutrition, it can only be found in a few books on food and herbal medicine in traditional Chinese medicine Some clues.

Then why are so many people talking about this hair product? It may be related to the ancients. For example, it was difficult for the ancients to eat meat frequently, and the thermic effect of protein-rich fish, shrimp, and meat would be relatively high, so some changes in the body may have occurred. Or eat mutton and other foods with a mutton taste, which has a strong taste stimulation. In addition, it may be that you are allergic to these foods, or you cannot ensure food hygiene because of backward cooking methods, etc. These situations may allow the saying of “fat things” to spread.

In fact,there is no scientific basis for the relationship between hair growth and tumor, Beijing Wu Tao, a nutritionist from the Nutrition Department of Tongren Hospital, reminded us that we must treat hair products dialectically.

Crabs, fish, seafood and other aquatic products rich in protein are prone to allergic reactions such as asthma and urticaria, especially those with allergies should pay attention.

The occurrence of chronic diseases is related to inappropriate dietary structure, bad eating habits, indiscriminate supplementation and other reasons, so although there is no necessary connection between hair and certain diseases, but

span>Whether healthy people or patients with diseases should ensure a fresh, balanced and reasonable and varied diet.

Worrying about eating nutritious food will make the tumor grow faster is also wrong. In fact, until the person dies, the cancer cells are compete with normal cells for nutrients. Even if the patient doesn’t eat,cancer cells cannot starve to death.

In addition, some people worry about whether they can’t eat spicy food after they have cancer? In fact, cancer patients can eat spicy food. Spicy is just a human body’s taste sensation, which is not very different from other tastes. Moreover,there is no evidence to show that eating spicy food can lead to accelerated tumor growth. It may make the patient more loss of appetite and affect the patient’s recovery.

Second, how do you view the “taboo” problem of cancer?

About cancer taboos, many people choose to go vegetarian or avoid so-called hair products.

The study by Xian Guomin and others found that in a survey of 170 cancer patients, it was found that the recurrence rate of cancer patients with more dietary taboos was significantly higher than that of those with less dietary taboos. Or patients without contraindications.

In fact, if the intake of high-quality protein is not guaranteed, it is more likely to increase the risk of malnutrition and infection. Some cancer patients die of malnutrition. US registered dietitian Sun Lingxiaexplains that cancer is a metabolic disease that easily changes the body’s metabolism, accelerates the decomposition of fat and protein, and reduces their synthesis, resulting in weight loss in patients.

Secondly, cancer patients are prone to nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and other side effects during treatment, which increases the consumption of the body. Therefore, during treatment, we cannot rely solely on surgery and drug treatment.Nutrition therapy is also important.

Lu Yao of the Fourth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital believes that if there is no oral digestive tract anal Surgery, or suffering from metabolic diseases, diabetes and other diseases, you can eat what you can eat before surgery or after surgery.

There are many factors that affect the wound healing of patients, such as age, local blood supply of the wound, inflammation, infection, nutrition, and mood, so < span>Can’t just focus on the fasting aspect. There is currently no exact definition of hair, and “hair” is more of an over-magnified pseudo-concept.

Third, what should really pay attention to are these 6 types of food

< span>It is true that cancer patients need to be more careful about their diet during their illness, but it does not mean that all foods should be banned, but they should be treated differently according to the disease.

The first category is high-fat, high-sugar, high-starch foods, which are prone to cause overweight or Obesity, being overweight or obese is not only associated with many types of cancer, but also increases the chance of tumor recurrence and death.

The second category is food containing carcinogens, which is identified by the World Health Organization as < strong>Class 1 carcinogens food or medicine. Although eating a bite of carcinogenic food does not necessarily lead to cancer, long-term consumption may still affect your health, so it is recommended to avoid it.

The third category is garlic, ginger, angelica, If the patient uses anticoagulant drugs, it is not recommended to eat. These foods or drugs can enhance the anticoagulant effect of anticoagulants and increase the chance of bleeding. Moreover, the blood of cancer patients is often in a hypercoagulable state, which may increase the risk of thrombosis.

The fourth category is ginseng, ginkgo biloba, milk thistle, it is recommended to avoid it during chemotherapy. The metabolism of these foods can affect the activity of CYP2D6 enzymes in the body and affect the efficacy of drugs.

The fifth category is grapefruit, star fruit, pomegranate, in It is recommended to avoid taking targeted drugs or chemotherapy. These fruits can affect the activity of CYP3A enzymes in the body during metabolism, thereby affecting drug metabolism and efficacy.

The sixth category is royal jelly, royal jelly, bird’s nest, snow clams, purple river carts, these foods contain relatively Polyestrogens, and sex hormones are closely related to the occurrence and development of breast cancer, so breast cancer patients should avoid eating such foods.

We have to look at hair products dialectically, and during the disease Ensure adequate nutritional intake, and try to achieve a balanced and reasonable diet.
