1) Most patients suffer from recurrent and persistent diarrhea and have weak digestive abilities, so they should be given food that is easily digestible and absorbable.

2) Most patients have blood in their stools, and patients in the late stage often have large amounts of blood in their stools, so they should eat less or no irritating and spicy food.

3) Patients with chronic diarrhea or patients in the late stage have long-term fever, sweating, and damage to body fluids, so they should drink more water or soup, and the staple food can be semi-liquid foods such as porridge and noodles.

4) Most patients experience symptoms such as loss of appetite, nausea, and even vomiting, so they should eat a light diet and avoid greasy food.

5) Late-stage patients suffer from chronic diarrhea, bloody stools, fever, and have lost a large amount of nutrients and water. They are emaciated, have lost weight, and have a deficiency of both qi and blood. They should take nutritious tonic medicinal foods.

6) After colorectal cancer surgery, some patients often feel poor appetite or bloating and other gastrointestinal discomfort. Drinking yogurt after surgery can relieve the above discomfort. Because after colorectal cancer surgery, the balance of beneficial intestinal flora is broken, and drinking yogurt in moderation can help the intestinal flora return to normal.
