How to take supplements for lung cancer patients

Q: Lung cancer patients have undergone surgery and chemotherapy and are now very weak. I really want to replenish my body, but I am afraid that if the nutrition is too good, the growth of cancer cells may be accelerated. How should patients with lung cancer take supplements?

Answer: When lung cancer patients gradually return to health and their systemic immune function and anti-cancer ability become stronger, they can in turn effectively inhibit the growth of cancer cells. From this perspective, increasing nutrition will not accelerate the growth of tumor cells. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes on treating symptoms according to symptoms. For example, if the patient's tongue coating is greasy, yellow or white, he should eat foods that strengthen the spleen and reduce dampness, such as rice kernels, lentils, etc. But turtles must not be eaten, so , the implementation of dietary therapy should be based on the specific situation of the patient.

Dietary conditioning for lung cancer patients

Lung cancer is a very common cancer, ranking second in the mortality rate of malignant tumors in my country. Generally, the systemic symptoms of lung cancer are not obvious. In the early stage, there may be symptoms such as cough, shortness of breath, and blood in the sputum, which are similar to tuberculosis. In the late stage, patients may have fever, weight loss, fatigue, and even cachexia.

The digestive system function of patients with early- to mid-stage lung cancer is sound. After clinical diagnosis, time should be taken to supplement the body with nutrients to improve physical fitness, enhance resistance, and prevent or delay the development of cachexia. Appear. If nutrients are fully replenished before clinical treatment, patients with better physical condition will have stronger tolerance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and the treatment effect will be better; similarly, patients with better physical condition will be more resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy than patients with poorer nutritional status. Accept surgical treatment and recover faster. Therefore, patients with early-stage lung cancer should supplement various nutrients, such as high-quality protein, carbohydrates, fats, inorganic salts and multivitamins as soon as possible as their digestion and absorption capacity allows.

For lung cancer patients with symptoms such as cough and hemoptysis, traditional Chinese medicine has many prescriptions and food prescriptions for nourishing yin and moistening the lungs, relieving cough and bleeding, and astringent. , water chestnuts, etc., while lotus root joints, lotus seeds, persimmons, pear, yam, lily, white fungus, etc. all have the effect of relieving cough, astringent and hemostasis.

According to folk prescriptions, lung cancer patients can also eat yin-nourishing foods such as geckos, turtle paste, turtle meat, and glutinous rice.

Compared with digestive tract tumors, the diet of lung cancer patients should be easier to solve. In addition to the above-mentioned nourishing foods of traditional Chinese medicine, lung cancer patients should choose milk, eggs, lean meat, animal liver, soy products, fresh vegetables and fruits, etc. The patient's food intake and frequency of food intake can be increased as much as possible. Note: lung cancer patients should avoid fishy and greasy foods, spicy and irritating foods such as tobacco and alcohol.

Patients after lung cancer surgery should take Qiqi tea

Astragalus, also known as Dugen, has the effect of delaying human aging and enhancing and regulating the body's immune function.

You can continue to boil it or drink it warmly. It is best to eat all the astragalus and wolfberry before going to bed at night. Take one dose a day and insist on taking it. The long-term effect will be better.

What should lung cancer patients pay attention to during recovery?

When lung cancer patients achieve complete remission or partial remission after undergoing surgical resection, radiotherapy, or traditional Chinese and Western medicine anti-cancer drugs, attention should be paid to promoting recovery.

The main things to do are:

(1) Smoking is completely prohibited. No matter when you quit, it's never too late.

(2) Do qigong exercises, especially qigong that enhances respiratory function, to improve lung function.

(3) Always pay attention to the fresh air in the environment, and go to the natural environment for exercise or activities.

(4) Do not go to public places with many people or polluted air to avoid external infections and respiratory infections.

(5) Eat less irritating foods and things that cause phlegm and damage the lungs, such as peppers, raw onions, garlic, fatty meats, etc.; eat more foods rich in vitamins A and C and foods that clear and moisturize the lungs. Such as carrots, grapes, lilies, arrowhead mushrooms, fried almonds, ginkgo, walnut kernels, asparagus, Luo Han Guo, lobarbs, pears, etc.

(6) Insist on regular re-examination and take traditional Chinese medicine that replenishes qi, nourishes the lungs, clears away heat and fights cancer for several years. If it is a partial remission, necessary comprehensive treatment of traditional Chinese and Western medicine should be carried out under close observation by a doctor to strive for long-term remission.

What is the importance of psychological rehabilitation?

In ancient my country, medical scientists have already noticed the role of mental factors in the occurrence and development of tumors and other diseases.

Excessive or insufficient levels of the seven emotions (happiness, anger, sadness, thought, sadness, fear, and surprise) can lead to disorders of the flow of qi and blood in the human body. For example, anger causes qi to rise, and thinking causes qi to rise. If you are knotted or fearful, your Qi will be low. Ancient medical scientists have long pointed out that the incidence of breast cancer is related to women's long-term emotional distress and depression; the choking disease is related to severe worry. Once the patient is diagnosed with cancer, he or she will suffer a huge psychological blow, and emotions such as fear, anger, and disappointment will arise one after another. During the entire treatment process, the treatment effect will be seriously affected.

In clinical work, we see that under the same medical conditions, some patients who "think openly" and have a strong will to fight the disease are often better than those patients who are frightened and overwhelmed by cancer. The treatment is much better. If you are mentally broken, even the best treatment will be in vain. Of course, correct and timely diagnosis and treatment, if effective, will in turn make patients confident in recovery and enhance their fighting spirit.

Emotions can both "cause cancer" and "cure cancer." Therefore, in addition to active clinical treatment, cancer patients should also pay attention to the patient's mental and psychological well-being as early as possible.
