Dietitian Cheng Hanyu once pointed out that cancer cachexia is a serious comorbidity. According to the literature, the incidence of cancer cachexia ranges from 40% at the time of cancer diagnosis to 70% at the advanced stage, and the average survival time is reduced by as much as 30%. Among patients with solid tumors, cancer cachexia accounts for 20-25% of the main cause of death.
Cheng Hanyu said that the basal metabolic rate of patients with cancer cachexia continues to increase, but due to loss of appetite, oral mucositis, dysgeusia, nausea, dysphagia or constipation, etc., resulting in insufficient calorie and nutrient intake, abnormal body metabolism and continuous inflammation, resulting in Quality of life is low. Therefore, once diagnosed with cancer, it is particularly important to improve appetite, even if you can’t eat enough, to avoid cancer cachexia.
2 Foods That Increase Anti-Cancer Power
Food is very important to fight cancer; Cheng Hanyu provides 2 major foods that have been proven by research to increase cancer resistance:
Probiotics have a variety of anti-cancer effects, including: mutagen or carcinogen inactivation, lowering intestinal pH, immune regulation, intestinal flora regulation, regulation of apoptosis and cell differentiation, and inhibition of tyrosine kinase pathways . Studies have found that the gut microbiota can be transformed into non-carcinogenic microbiota during the onset and progression of colorectal cancer, which is important for the prevention of cancer and is currently used as an adjuvant therapy for colorectal cancer.
Polyphenols are found in natural foods including: vegetables, fruits, beans, nuts, whole grains, corn, oats, rice, wheat, and oilseeds such as rapeseed, rapeseed, flaxseed, olive seed, and Tea and coffee also contain antioxidant polyphenols, such as phenolic acids, anthocyanins, and flavonoids, which have powerful antioxidant capacity and can reduce the risk of cancer.
