Nowadays, people are more aware of their health. Many people go for regular physical examinations, which will find many small problems. Many people will find that they have nodules on their bodies, such as thyroid nodules and breast nodules. , pulmonary nodules, etc., when people know that there are nodules, people will be very worried, fearing that it will develop into cancer, and they do not know whether to undergo surgery to remove them.
Can a nodule become cancer? What is the nodule?
A nodule is actually a relatively small mass in the body. When it grows to a certain extent, it will be called a “mass”. Nodules may appear in any part of the body.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that nodules are mainly caused by liver qi stagnation, blood stasis and phlegm coagulation, but most nodules are benign, and the possibility of malignant transformation is extremely low, such as pulmonary nodules There is less than 2% possibility of malignant transformation, and thyroid nodule has only 1% probability of malignant transformation. If it is a breast nodule, the possibility of cancer transformation is even lower, so there is no need to panic too much when there is a nodule.
Generally benign nodules have two characteristics:
1. Growth of benign nodules The speed is very slow, and some nodules may be as large as one day for more than ten years, and the possibility of malignant transformation is extremely low. The growth rate of malignant nodules is usually very fast.
2. Benign nodules are soft to the touch and move when touched. Malignant nodules, on the other hand, are hard to the touch and have little activity.
Although nodules do not pose a threat to life safety, it will endanger life and health if left unchecked.
So many patients with nodules are very concerned about the dietary problems after suffering from nodules. Some people think that beef is a hair thing, and people with nodules cannot eat it. Is this true?
Is beef a “hair” of nodules?

These foods mainly contain a lot of nutrients. If they are eaten by people with certain diseases, it is easy to cause disease recurrence or induce some diseases. However, modern medical research has found that it is not so much the disease caused by these hairs that it is because the food contains some allergenic ingredients or is caused by improper processing, so it has little to do with the food itself.
Therefore, patients with nodules do not have to be taboo to eat beef. As long as you master the amount of consumption and take correct cooking methods, eating beef will not catalyze nodules. On the contrary, you can supplement the body with high-quality protein, balance nutrient intake.
