What drugs should be used for nasopharyngeal cancer? What fruits can be eaten in the diet?

There are many types of drugs used in the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, but not many of them are effective. The author introduces which drugs should be used for nasopharyngeal carcinoma? What fruits can be eaten?

Drug treatments for nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be divided into two types: chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine. Chemotherapy drugs have a more direct inhibitory effect on cancer, but they also have stronger toxic side effects, which can damage the body's immune function and produce a series of complications, which are not conducive to treatment.

Currently, Chinese medicine is often combined with clinical treatment to enhance the patient's immune function and thereby improve resistance to tumors. In addition, Chinese medicine can also reduce the toxic and side effects of chemotherapy, allowing the treatment to proceed smoothly.

Treatment with traditional Chinese medicine can alleviate the toxic side effects of chemotherapy and improve the effect of chemotherapy. It can be used synergistically with chemotherapy drugs to improve the effect of treatment. It can also alleviate some of the toxic side effects of chemotherapy, stabilize the number of white blood cells, and increase the patient's appetite. It is a good auxiliary treatment product.

During treatment, nasopharyngeal cancer patients should also pay attention to their diet, so what fruits can they eat?

Watermelon is cold in nature. Nasopharyngeal cancer patients have weak constitutions and weak yang energy. Eating it, especially eating too much, will make the cold worse. Therefore, it is recommended not to eat it. The following fruits are edible: apples, kiwis, oranges, hawthorns, cherries, grapes, and monk fruit.

Strawberries are also one of the fruits that nasopharyngeal cancer patients can eat: 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 symptoms in patients with nasopharyngeal cancer, lung cancer, and laryngeal cancer. Figs are also good. Fig flesh contains anti-tumor ingredients that can inhibit the synthesis of cancer cell proteins.

I hope everyone can detect and treat it early, and I wish you all a speedy recovery.
