Women over the age of 40 gradually discover gynecological diseases such as uterine fibroids. This is because for young women, their physical defense and self-regulation abilities are poor, and the probability of illness is also increased. However, we found that many people with uterine fibroids feel particularly pessimistic because they believe that it is an incurable disease.
Is uterine fibroids severe?
Uterine fibroids are common benign tumors in women, which do not induce death and are asymptomatic and do not require treatment. If there are symptoms of uterine fibroids, patients can immediately remove the fibroids through surgery, completely eliminating the damage caused by the disease. However, people who have undergone surgery for uterine fibroids may still experience recurrence of the disease. However, uterine fibroids also have a certain probability of deterioration, and regular follow-up is necessary. If the rate of cancer transformation cannot be controlled, the disease can worsen into uterine cancer, and the patient may die. Therefore, patients should collect more anti cancer methods, such as starting from diet.
What should patients with uterine fibroids pay attention to in their diet?
1. Eat more anti-cancer foods
Uterine fibroids have a risk of cancer transformation, and patients can eat more anti-cancer foods in their daily lives. Like fish oil, the eicosapentaenoic acid in fish oil has an anticancer effect on beef. Beef contains substances that inhibit cancer, so it also has an anticancer effect on sheep fetuses. The liver cells in sheep fetuses contain anticancer substances, but this type of food is small and difficult to obtain. Garlic is very rich in anticancer substances, and eating more helps digestion.
2. Stay away from alcohol
According to relevant investigations, the growth rate of uterine fibroids is significantly accelerated under the action of alcohol. Therefore, patients with uterine fibroids must stay away from alcohol. The highest alcohol content is Baijiu, of course, beer, wine, cocktail, table wine, wine, etc. The alcohol content is not high, but patients had better not drink it.
3. Eat more soy products
White tofu, dried tofu, bean skin, bean sprouts and other soy products are very beneficial foods for patients with uterine fibroids. This food has a high protein content and can provide more energy for the patient's self-regulation system.
Warm reminder, the incidence of malignant uterine fibroids is lower than that of benign ones, and patients should not have too much psychological burden. However, regardless of the type of uterine fibroids, patients need to carefully adjust their dietary habits in daily life, and learn to distinguish which types of food are beneficial for their disease recovery and which ones have inhibitory effects.
