How to eat for ascites caused by ovarian cancer

There is no good treatment for ovarian cancer patients yet, but patients can still prevent it based on the high-risk causes of ovarian cancer. Among them, ovarian cancer patients should pay special attention to their diet, both in terms of food diversity and types. Only in this way can the best treatment be achieved.

1. Food Diversification

Pay attention to food diversity, with plant-based foods as the main focus, which should account for more than 2/3 of each meal. A plant-based diet should contain fresh vegetables, fruits, beans and whole grains.

2. Control your weight

Avoid being overweight or underweight. After adulthood, limit weight gain to no more than 5kg. Being overweight or obese can easily lead to an increased risk of endometrial cancer, kidney cancer, and colorectal cancer.

3. Don’t eat burnt food

When grilling fish or meat, avoid burning the juices. Fish, meat, and bacon grilled directly over the fire should only be eaten occasionally. It is best to boil, steam, or fry food.

4. Eat more starchy foods

Eat 600-800g of various cereals, beans, and plant roots every day. The less processed, the better. Limit the intake of refined sugar. The starch in food can prevent colon and rectal cancer. A high-fiber diet may prevent the occurrence of colon, rectal, breast, and pancreatic cancers.

5. Eat more fruits and vegetables

Eating 400-800g of various vegetables and fruits every day can reduce the risk of cancer by 20%. Eating 5 or more kinds of vegetables and fruits every day can reduce the risk of cancer by 20%.

Patients should not only pay attention to treatment, but also pay more attention to the maintenance of ovarian cancer. Only in this way can patients get relief as soon as possible. Only by paying attention to diet, paying more attention to their food choices, and paying more attention to physical health exercise, can the best treatment be carried out.
