Postoperative diet of esophageal cancer has always been a matter of great concern to patients and their families. Although this website has talked about something similar, Bian Xiao felt it necessary to send another message about the postoperative diet of esophageal cancer. According to experts' explanation, patients after vagotomy often don't feel saturated and hungry, so they should eat in small quantities, don't wait until they are hungry, and it is appropriate to eat 6-7 times a day. Because the nerve is cut off and the posture changes, the emptying function of the patient's stomach may be poor after operation, so take a proper walk after meals to promote digestion and emptying. During the operation, the normal gastroesophageal anti-reflux mechanism is destroyed, and the gastric contents are easy to reflux, which is easy to cause stomatitis and anastomotic bleeding. In severe cases, pneumonia or even suffocation may be caused by inhalation reflux. Therefore, take a walk after meals to avoid staying in bed; Sleep for 2 hours at night, and fast. When sleeping, try to raise the bedside 15 degrees to avoid reflux of stomach contents. The postoperative recovery is smooth, and you can gradually transition to a normal diet in about three weeks. Anastomotic stenosis may occur after operation, but eating solid food will expand the anastomosis to a certain extent, so don't eat semi-liquid food for a long time after operation. Esophageal cancer is different from other tumors, but it is difficult to swallow, so it can't be eaten, causing consumption to the body. Therefore, we should eat as much food as possible that can enter the esophagus, such as semi-liquid food and total liquid food, pay attention to the quality of semi-liquid food and total liquid food, do not limit calories, be nutritious, soft and easy to digest and absorb. If necessary, we can make homogeneous meals, essence meals and mixed milk. Homogenated diet is a kind of diet which is made of normal human bones and then stirred into paste by high-speed tissue masher. The nutrients contained in it are similar to those in normal diet, but it is easy to digest and absorb after crushing in vitro, which can avoid long-term single diet and prevent constipation. Diet treatment of esophageal cancer focuses on prevention. Pay attention to prevent grain from becoming moldy, harvest autumn grain quickly, strengthen storage, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and change traditional bad eating habits. It is necessary to treat drinking water with bleaching powder to reduce the nitrite content in water, and often take vitamin C to reduce the formation of nitrosamines in the stomach. In addition, in order to avoid nitrite accumulation when fertilizing vegetables, molybdenum fertilizer can be applied. Riboflavin should be given to patients with moderate or severe hyperplasia of esophageal epithelial cells to correct vitamin A deficiency, and early examination, early diagnosis and early treatment should be done as much as possible. The principle of postoperative diet for esophageal cancer is to help patients recover after operation, prevent postoperative complications, and play an auxiliary role after operation, so we must be cautious. In terms of diet, you can consult a doctor and eat properly according to the doctor's advice. Bian Xiao suggests that you keep your food fresh and don't eat moldy and spoiled food. Make up your mind to give up harmful tobacco and alcohol hobbies. In order to keep the stool unobstructed, constipation patients should eat foods rich in cellulose and drink some honey every day. Regular and quantitative diet is more suitable for patients with digestive tract cancer. Eat more foods containing vitamins A, C and E, and eat more green vegetables and fruits. Adhere to a low-fat diet and often eat lean meat, eggs and yogurt. Do not eat salty, smoked, roasted or fried food, especially burnt tokens. Often eat nutritious dried fruit seeds, such as sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, watermelon seeds, peanuts, walnuts, dried apricots, almonds, raisins and so on. Often eat foods that can inhibit cancer, such as kohlrabi, cabbage, carrots, rape, garlic, vegetable oil, fish and so on. Eat more coarse grains, such as coarse rice, corn and whole grains, and eat less polished rice and refined noodles. Patients with esophageal cancer generally have difficulty swallowing after operation, so we should pay attention to the way of eating slowly and with both meat and vegetables, and correct bad habits such as eating too fast, overheating, being too hard and too thick. Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits to ensure the supply of vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin A and trace elements such as molybdenum, zinc and copper; Do not eat food contaminated by mold and moldy and rotten food; Quit smoking and drinking.
