In recent years, the incidence rate of male prostate cancer has become higher and higher, and many patients do not understand why they suffer from this terrible disease. According to current medical evidence, prostate cancer is not an infectious disease, and will not transmit cancer cells from patients to others through some way. Even if a patient's prostate cancer cell tissue is implanted into someone else's body as a whole, it will be compromised by their strong immune ability. Now let's understand why the incidence rate of prostate cancer is high.
The reason for the high incidence rate of prostate cancer is mainly the following two aspects:
1. Life and dietary habits: Research has shown that the occurrence of any cancer is more or less related to lifestyle and diet, and prostate cancer is certainly the same. Research has found that a sedentary lifestyle and a high fat diet can both induce prostate cancer.
2. Genetic and racial factors: Medical data show that genetics and ethnicity can predetermine the probability of developing prostate cancer. If a father and brother have had prostate cancer, their risk of developing prostate cancer is higher than the average person. It is recommended that people with a family history begin regular physical examinations at the age of 40.
However, research has shown that if prostate cancer patients can eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, it is very beneficial for the recovery of the disease. Of course, in addition to vegetables, there should also be some other foods to eat. Understanding what prostate cancer patients eat is very important. Let's take a look.
1、 Eat more beans and vegetables
Westerners have never had the habit of eating soy products, but the soy products that Asians like to eat do contain the scourge of prostate cancer. The isoflavones in soybean can reduce the destructive effects of male hormones and inhibit and kill cancer cells. Westerners eat too little vegetables, and should eat as many vegetables as the Japanese and Chinese. In addition to Chinese cabbage, vegetables such as cauliflower and broccoli also have the effect of preventing prostate cancer. In addition, you can also eat some flaxseed and tomatoes every day. Tomatoes contain lycopene, which has a preventive effect on prostate cancer.
2、 Green tea should be drunk every day
Relevant research also shows that the habit of Asian people drinking green tea also plays a role in preventing and treating prostate diseases. As the amount and time of drinking tea increase, the effect of green tea becomes more apparent. Western men generally drink alcohol before and after eating, which can easily cause prostate congestion. German experts suggest that you can drink some tea while eating like Asians, and even if you drink alcohol, you can only drink some red wine with a lower alcohol content.
3、 Complementary elements for three meals should be comprehensive
For breakfast, drink a glass of tomato juice; For lunch, eat a bowl of salad or boiled vegetables with carrots, cabbage, or broccoli; At dinner, eat some beans or switch to brown rice; When you are hungry, eat some radishes and tomatoes at any time to prevent and treat prostate cancer without gaining weight.
For prostate cancer patients, it is best to have a balanced diet, which can comprehensively supplement the nutritional needs of the patient's body and enable the body to function better to resist the erosion of cancer cells.
