After a period of time, the patients are switched to soft food or ordinary diet in turn to supplement a large amount of protein and vitamins. In order to promote patients' early recovery or receive other treatments as soon as possible, postoperative patients should be given nutritious meals with high protein, high calorie and high vitamins, such as beef and mutton, lean pork, chicken, fish, shrimp, eggs, fried pork, bean products, etc., and they can drink more milk, lotus root starch, fresh juice and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits.
