After the operation, people are often weak and it is best not to eat cold drinks and have a bad appetite, but the body needs enough nutrients to replenish energy and the skin needs nutrients to accelerate healing. So, what should they pay attention to in their diet? Ms. Jane Clark, a famous British nutritionist, answered this question in an article in the British Daily Mail on April 2 1. First of all, we should ensure adequate intake of protein, such as lean meat, chicken, fish, eggs and legumes, and at the same time, we should also take in some starchy substances, such as noodles, rice and potatoes. Protein and starch are important substances that generate energy and regenerate skin, muscles and bones. They can also help patients to strengthen their physique, stimulate the circulatory system and make the body's repair function work normally. Therefore, even if it is as simple as a bowl of noodles, a piece of cheese and a sandwich, it will be very effective as long as you ensure that each meal has the above two kinds of food. Fresh fruits and vegetables are also very beneficial things. They are rich in plant fiber, which is good for preventing constipation after operation. Vitamin C, beta-carotene and other essential nutrients also have a good effect on wound repair. If your appetite is really bad, you can try eating five meals a day. Eat fruit between meals, even if it is only half an apple, or add some vegetables at lunch or dinner. In the afternoon, you can also drink some homemade soups, such as Korean miso soup, assorted vegetable soup, mushroom and corn soup, etc., to replenish your strength between meals. Patients can also keep some chocolate and nuts, and eat a little at rest, which can also provide energy for the body. In addition, intake of mineral zinc will accelerate wound healing. Therefore, zinc sulfate or zinc gluconate should be supplemented1-3 times a day, 200-220 mg each time. At the same time, it is suggested to supplement 10 microgram of vitamin D, especially for the elderly with low vitamin D content in the body, which is also beneficial to wound healing. ▲
