Diet for rectal cancer

Diet for colorectal cancer is one of the most important cogs in the complex mechanism of recovery.

Cancer is a disease of modern society. Most often it affects the population living in highly industrialized countries and huge megacities. And the number of patients is increasing every year. Rapidly increasing and mortality from cancer of the rectum. With every decade, this indicator increases by 20 percent, and the main problem is that often the disease is diagnosed at later stages, when it is almost impossible to help a patient. But if this "infection" was recognized on time. There are all chances to return a person to a normal life. Physicians in modern conditions are coping effectively with this disease. Not the last role in the period of treatment and subsequent rehabilitation is played by the food that the patient uses.

What is the diet for rectal cancer?

In the process of resection of a malignant tumor, the surgeon, at the first stage of the operation, artificially forms the anus - bone. Subsequently, the patient undergoes repeated surgical intervention to restore the natural course of the rectum, or the patient remains with the bone before the end of life. But in any case, the patient has to suffer also radiation and chemotherapy.

To the body of the patient, and so weakened by the disease, could normally cope with such stresses. He needs to get a full set of nutritional elements, that is, adhere to a diet for cancer of the rectum, so it is worth reviewing and adjusting your daily diet. Recent studies have shown that a minimum percentage of cancer patients is observed in Asian countries, where people eat mainly rice that is not heat-treated with vegetables, seafood, fish, raw fruits and minimizes consumption of animal fatty foods.

In the pre-operative period, a diet for colorectal cancer contributes to the maintenance of the body's immune system, and helps prevent cancer of the tumor. Diet in this case should be based on some principles:

• The first is all the patient's food must be fresh and quality. Food should be easily absorbed. 
• It is necessary to completely stop the consumption of animal fats: fat, fatty meat, margarine and butter, smoked products, mayonnaise and fried foods ... 
• To the maximum enter into the diet of the patient food, containing an element such as selenium. This element is able to actively fight with cancer cells. It is very unfortunate that this chemical element occurs only in small amounts in the ground and water of our latitudes. To products selenium-containing, nevertheless, it is possible to carry: 
  • Seafood and sea fish; 
  • Beef and pork liver; 
  • Eggs; 
  • Cereals (especially rice not processed, wheat); 
  • Broccoli, parsnips and parsley; 
  • Almost all legumes; 
  • Dried fruits, nuts, seeds; 
• It is necessary to minimize the consumption of sweet foods. Sugar is an excellent medium for a more rapid metastasis of cells. 
• Remove products that have in their composition all kinds of chemical impurities and additives, various dyes, stabilizers and preservatives.

The postoperative period is a matter of nutrition

Do not forget that the artificial anus created by the surgeon deprives the patient of the opportunity to control, it would seem, such a natural process of going to the toilet. This nuance gives the patient very much discomfort. If possible, this problem is solved by using a calorimeter. Not the last word in this situation remains for food. A rationally selected diet for rectal cancer will allow to form and fix the necessary reflexes.

The patient who underwent the operation, the correction of nutrition is prescribed without fail. Its main goal is a gentle attitude to the intestines, minimizing the processes of fermentation, diarrhea.

The first postoperative day the patient spends without eating - fasting. Food begins to receive from the second day, little by little. Postoperative food is poor for vitamins and trace elements, this defect in the first ten days compensate for medication. The daily weight of food products should not exceed 2 kg, and the amount of consumed liquid is not more than one and a half liters. The food is fractional - four to six times a day.
