In the eyes of many people, unfortunately, I finally died of cancer because of cancer and I think it is incurable. But in fact, this is not the case. Many patients suffer from severe malnutrition rather than cancer itself. Previous studies have found that about 40% of patients die from malnutrition.
Why are many cancer patients prone to malnutrition? Which one they are most likely to lack, and how should they supplement it? Nutrition is very important to the general population and more important to patients with malignant tumors. Today I will talk to you about this article. After reading it, I hope you will get out of the misunderstanding and make a correct and reasonable supplement.
Why are many cancers prone to malnutrition?
found that there are tumors in the body and during the treatment process, their bodies consume more nutrients. consumes a lot, and is prone to lack. The metabolites of the tumor are also prone to cause discomforts such as anorexia in the body. For patients with chemotherapy, they are also prone to a series of adverse reactions such as nausea, which will affect the patient's appetite and immunity. If you eat less, is consumed less , which is also prone to disorders.
In addition to this, the reason why many patients appear may be related to the following misunderstandings they have entered:
Some patients are worried that eating too much will make the tumor grow more crazier , so they eat less or even fast, feeling that it has no nutritional supply and cannot continue to grow. But it is not that simple. You should know that it exists in the human body. If you do this, it will still attract nutrition. The patient's physical condition is weaker than that of ordinary people. In this way, it will be easier to get worse and have a greater chance of malnutrition. In the end, it will be your own body.
Some patients also have are afraid that eating hair products will aggravate the condition . They dare not eat a lot of food, so they eat less, and over time they will easily become malnutrition. But in fact, it is hard to say that a certain food is a food under any physical condition. It is relatively speaking, and its scope should not be expanded at will. If you give up on food due to choking, it is not advisable. Some of them can actually be eaten, and it can also help nourish the body and strengthen the body, such as fish.
is nutritious and has a good physique to better fight tumors. However, if has a long-term malnutrition, the impact of is multifaceted. It is not only easy to increase complications and infection risks of , but also affect the therapeutic effect of . It may be difficult for patients to complete later, and may eventually affect their lifespan.
So, what nutrients are most likely to be lacking in cancer patients?
Research in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that
cancer patients generally lack vitamin D.
In addition, there have been other studies that have found other associations between it and cancer. Research in the JAMA sub-issue found that those who supplement it, The risk of cancer development to advanced stage reduces , which suggests that it may reduce the lethality of tumors. Previous studies have also found that the lack of it has some association with some cancers, and supplementation is beneficial to reduce risks.
It is of great importance to human health. It is the nutrition needed by the body and can also regulate the body's absorption of some nutrients. If it is lacking, it is also related to many other health problems, such as Diabetes , Osteoporosis . For children, lack of it for a long time can easily increase the risk of rickets .
can be supplemented in time through the following methods:
Getting from food is a better method. Eat some fish, egg and other foods appropriately.Cancer patients may have more physical needs than the general population. If this is the case, it is difficult to meet the standards. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can use the supplement supplement to scientifically and reasonably, follow the doctor's advice to avoid the adverse effects of excessive supplementation.
In addition, reasonably sunbathing is also a good way. For cancer patients, in addition to helping promote its synthesis, there is another advantage, which is that it helps regulate emotions and reduce negative psychology, which is very helpful for treatment. It should be noted that you should not over-sun to avoid backfire.
From the above we have learned that cancer patients are prone to lack of vitamin D and know how to supplement it. In addition, comprehensive and balanced nutrition is also essential. In addition to this, the following ones also need to be supplemented reasonably, strengthen physical fitness, improve resistance, and defeat the tumor to have a greater chance of winning.
Protein and lipid also need to be supplemented reasonably. Don’t beat fat to death with one stick. It can also be divided into good or bad, such as the one in olive oil is good.
carbohydrate is also needed by the human body. It can bring energy to the human body. It is recommended that patients can eat some high-quality carbohydrate foods, such as some whole grains and fruits. For cancer patients, some people may experience abdominal discomfort after chemotherapy, and eating some of these foods can also help defecate.
Finally, in terms of supplementing nutrition, I would like to remind everyone not to supplement at will. should not blindly believe in the effects of some products or health products. If is not suitable for you, but tonic yourself, it will easily bring additional burden to the body, which is not conducive to physical recovery, and may even cause other problems.
To sum up, some cancers are actually not scary. Many people are not defeated by themselves, but have long-term malnutrition, reminding everyone to get out of the misunderstanding. Cancer patients are prone to lack of vitamin D. The supplement method has been mentioned above. You can reasonably choose scientific supplements according to your own situation. In addition, you should also pay attention to reasonably supplementing other nutrients to maintain balance.
