What food is good to eat if you have nasopharyngeal cancer

Diet therapy has always been an easier method of choice for patients with various diseases, because this treatment method is relatively easy for patients and their families, but what is a better diet for nasopharyngeal cancer? Or what foods are good for patients? Let's take a look.

1. Oranges. Citrus fruits such as oranges, grapefruits, oranges, lemons, kumquats, etc. are rich in vitamin C, which can prevent the formation of nitrosamines and are also suitable for patients with digestive tract, laryngeal and lung tumors.

2. Hawthorn. Hawthorn is often used to stimulate appetite and reduce blood lipids. It can also promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, eliminate stagnation and eliminate accumulation, inhibit the growth of cancer cells, and is rich in vitamin C. It is also suitable for patients with digestive tract and female reproductive system cancer.

3. Kiwi. Kiwi is a precious fruit. The vitamin C content of kiwi is 12 times that of oranges, 30 times that of apples, and 60 times that of grapes. Studies have shown that the substances it contains can block the formation of nitrosamines in the human body and have a good anti-cancer and anti-cancer effect.

4. Strawberries. Strawberries contain ellagic acid, which can protect the body from carcinogens and have a certain anti-cancer effect. Strawberries have the function of promoting body fluid and quenching thirst, relieving throat and moistening lungs, and are beneficial for relieving radiotherapy reactions and reducing symptoms in patients with nasopharyngeal cancer, lung cancer, and laryngeal cancer.

5. Red dates. They are rich in beta-carotene, vitamin C and B vitamins. They nourish the spleen and stomach and replenish qi and blood. The triterpenoid compounds they contain are effective anti-cancer ingredients. People eat red date porridge and stewed red dates with astragalus to strengthen their physical fitness and prevent cancer.

6. Bananas. Bananas can clear away heat and promote bowel movements. They are rich in magnesium and have anti-cancer effects. Studies have found that banana extract has a significant inhibitory effect on carcinogens such as aflatoxin, benzo(a)pyrene and nitroquinoline oxide.

7. Figs. Fig flesh contains anti-tumor ingredients that can inhibit the synthesis of cancer cell proteins.

We can see from the above findings that although nasopharyngeal carcinoma is cancer, it is not an incurable disease, and it can even be gradually alleviated through diet. However, as mentioned above, nasopharyngeal carcinoma requires a large amount of vitamin supplementation, so daily diet plays a very important role. Of course, diet is only part of it, and timely medical treatment is the most important thing.
