Dietary considerations for brain tumor patients after surgery

Brain cancer patients must pay attention to diet during postoperative recovery to avoid worsening of the disease. Brain tumor patients should pay attention to the following diet after surgery:

1. After the operation, brain tumor patients often experience nausea and vomiting due to intracranial hypertension. For nausea and vomiting of brain tumor patients, in addition to drug treatment, they should also be supplemented with certain dietary therapy, such as corn silk, red beans, walnut kernels, seaweed, carp, duck meat, Ulva, kelp, crab, and clams for patients with intracranial hypertension. They should also eat some foods that protect intracranial blood vessels, such as celery, shepherd's purse, chrysanthemum brain, wild rice stem, sunflower seeds, kelp, jellyfish, oysters, and clams.

2. Eat more high-protein and high-calorie foods. High-protein can be obtained from beans, meat, poultry, animal offal, aquatic products, eggs and other foods; while high-calorie foods can be obtained from high-fat foods such as sesame and day lily, as well as sugars, cakes and other foods.

3. Brain tumor patients should pay attention to a balanced diet after surgery: no partiality, no taboos, a combination of meat and vegetables, and a fine mix of food. The more food varieties you eat every day, the more nutrients you can get. Avoid stimulating beverages such as coffee, be careful not to eat spicy and irritating foods, and don't eat moldy food.
