What are the dietary taboos for cervical precancerous lesions? Dietary care methods for cervical cancer

Cervical cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women, and its cause is still unclear. Women who marry early, give birth prematurely, have multiple births, and have sexual dysfunction have a higher incidence of the disease. There are no symptoms in the early stages, but vaginal bleeding is abnormal in the later stages. Currently, surgery and radiotherapy are the main treatment options, and a combination of Chinese and Western medicine can also be used, but the cure rate for patients in the middle and late stages is very low. Women should keep themselves clean, strengthen their health care, pay attention to regular gynecological examinations, and seek medical attention in a timely manner when symptoms or signs are found.

Dietary taboos for cervical precancerous lesions

1. Eat more soybeans and their products

(1) Vegetables such as tofu, soy milk, dried tofu, broccoli, edamame, celery, sweet peas, etc. Since these foods can supplement phytoestrogens, the isoflavones and lignin contained in phytoestrogens are believed by scientists to have antioxidant effects.

(2) Phytoestrogens can inhibit the growth of cervical adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, inhibit cell division, and effectively prevent the invasion or metastasis of cancer cells.

2. Vitamin C Supplement

(1) Experts say that there are more and more cases of cancer caused by viruses. C It is very important to inhibit the damage caused by viruses.

(2) Vitamin C is also related to the incidence of cervical cancer. Surveys show that when vitamin C intake increases, the risk of cervical cancer decreases.

3. Supplement trace elements zinc and selenium

Zinc and selenium play extremely important roles in the production and function of immune cells.

4. Supplement beta-carotene

β-carotene is converted into vitamin A, which helps protect the immune system from attacks by free radical molecules and enhances immunity.

6 points to pay attention to during cervical cancer treatment

1. Cervical cancer (i.e. uterine cervical cancer) generally has little effect on the digestive tract function in the early stage. The main purpose is to enhance the patient's disease resistance and improve the immune function. Nutrients should be supplemented as much as possible. Protein, sugar, fat, vitamins, etc. can be reasonably consumed. When the patient has a lot of vaginal bleeding, some blood-tonifying, hemostatic, and anti-cancer foods should be taken, such as lotus root, coix seed, hawthorn, black fungus, and ebony. When the patient's leucorrhea is watery, it is advisable to take nourishing foods, such as turtle, pigeon eggs, and chicken. When the patient's leucorrhea is sticky and smelly, it is advisable to eat light and damp-removing foods, such as coix seed, red bean, and white imperata root.

3. During chemotherapy, the diet should mainly include yam powder, barley porridge, animal liver, placenta, donkey-hide gelatin, turtle, fungus, wolfberry, lotus root, banana, etc. When gastrointestinal reactions, nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite occur, the diet should be adjusted to strengthen the spleen and stomach, such as sugarcane juice, ginger juice, black plum, banana, kumquat, etc.

4. During radiotherapy, the diet should focus on nourishing blood and yin. Beef, pork liver, lotus root, fungus, spinach, celery, pomegranate, water chestnut, etc. can be eaten. If radiotherapy causes radiation cystitis and radiation proctitis, a diet that clears heat and dampness, nourishes yin and detoxifies should be given, such as watermelon, coix seed, red bean, water chestnut, lotus root, spinach, etc.

5. Patients with advanced cervical cancer should choose high-protein, high-calorie foods, such as milk, eggs, beef, turtle, red beans, mung beans, fresh lotus root, spinach, winter melon, apples, etc.
