Liver cancer patients consume a lot of energy and must ensure that they have enough nutrition.
Low fat in the diet
Pay attention to low fat in the diet, which can reduce the symptoms of nausea, vomiting, abdominal distension, etc.
Liver cancer patients have poor appetite and eat less food. They should increase the calories of the diet and eat fats and sweets that are easy to digest and absorb, such as honey, sucrose, vegetable oil, cream, etc.
Protein-rich foods
Liver cancer patients should eat more protein-rich foods, especially high-quality protein, such as lean meat, eggs, beans, milk, etc., to prevent albumin reduction. However, in the late stage of liver cancer, when liver function is not good, protein intake should be controlled to avoid excessive protein intake that induces hepatic encephalopathy.
Vitamins
Vitamins A, C, E, K, etc. have certain auxiliary anti-tumor effects. Therefore, liver cancer patients should eat more animal livers, and at the same time, they should eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, such as radish, pumpkin, bamboo shoots, asparagus, apples, black plums, kiwis, etc.
Trace elements
Liver cancer patients should eat more foods containing trace elements with anti-cancer effects, such as corn, seaweed, kelp, laver, beans, whole wheat noodles, nuts, etc.
Chinese Traditional Medicine
Patients with liver cancer after surgery often suffer from general fatigue, sore limbs, poor appetite and spontaneous sweating due to damage to qi and blood.
