Dietary considerations for malignant melanoma

I believe that most people don’t know what melanoma is when they hear about it, but I want to tell you that it is very troublesome to have melanoma. Not only is the treatment process long, but it also causes great harm to the body. So, as a melanoma patient, what should we pay attention to in our diet?

1. Eat less fat

Although fat is the main source of calories for the human body, it should not be consumed in excess. Long-term high-fat diet can easily lead to melanoma, colorectal cancer, and breast cancer.

2. Protein intake should not be excessive and the diet should be diversified

A high-protein diet will increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, weaken the gastrointestinal digestion and absorption function, and is not conducive to the treatment of tumors.

3. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables

Fresh fruits and vegetables have antioxidant effects, can scavenge free radicals, block the synthesis of carcinogens such as nitrosamines, inhibit the degeneration of squamous epithelial cells and the occurrence of cancer cells, and also have the effects of enhancing the body's immune function and promoting ulcer healing.

4. Drink tea in moderation

Tests have shown that some ingredients in tea have anti-cancer effects and can inhibit cancer cells in the diseased body. Tea can also act as a diuretic, which helps eliminate edema; it can also reduce radiation damage and has an anti-radiation effect.

5. Avoid smoking and drinking

Alcohol, nicotine, tar, etc. are related to the incidence of certain cancers. Quitting the habit of smoking and drinking in time is beneficial to the treatment and recovery of cancer patients.

The above are all matters that everyone needs to pay attention to. I hope that patients can learn from the above content and take good care of their diet so that the condition can be alleviated and then improved. Finally, if you still want to know, you can check the information on our website.
