Can I drink green tea if I have residual gastric cancer?

Gastric stump cancer refers to gastric cancer that occurs after surgery for non-cancerous lesions. The incidence of gastric stump cancer is generally very low, but it is 6 times more likely to occur than in the general population. What should you pay attention to in your diet? Can you drink green tea if you have gastric stump cancer? Then you should beware of the following if you have gastric stump cancer:

1. Patients with residual gastric cancer should not drink too much green tea. Experts suggest: Green tea clears away heat and detoxifies, and is cold in nature, so eat less. Give a diet that is easy to digest and nutritious, and give low-fat, high-vitamin, high-protein, and high-fiber foods. Eat more fish, milk, honey, nuts, starch, fresh fruits and vegetables to nourish the body and improve immunity. Food should be warm and soft. Avoid frying, raw, cold, greasy, spicy, and irritating foods.
2. Patients must build confidence and cooperate well with their physicians in treatment, so that residual gastric cancer can be cured.
3. Patients should maintain a reasonable lifestyle, get enough sleep and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits (such as apples, grapes, carrots, celery, etc.) to help the recovery of residual gastric cancer.
4. Patients should avoid eating smoked and pickled products (such as sausages, canned fish, pickles, salted fish, etc.) as they can easily irritate the mucosa of the residual stomach and cause chronic inflammation, thereby aggravating the symptoms of residual stomach cancer.
5. If the fecal occult blood test is positive, a gastroscopy and exfoliated cell examination should be performed in time, which will help in the early diagnosis of residual gastric cancer.
