Five principles of diet conditioning for chronic pancreatitis
1. Chronic pancreatitis generally adopts a high-protein, low-fat semi-liquid or high-protein and low-fat diet. A great feature of patients with chronic pancreatitis is that they will have diarrhea after eating a little oily meat. This is because pancreatic lipase is secreted by the pancreas. Once they get pancreatitis, especially chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic lipase secretion decreases and fat digestion is blocked. At this time, if the patient still consumes too much fat, the pancreatic function will inevitably decline further, so the intake of fatty foods should be strictly restricted when suffering from pancreatitis. Fat intake should be limited to less than 20 grams per day; Protein can be as high as 70 grams per day. If you have diabetes, you should also properly control the intake of carbohydrates.
2. Choose foods rich in vitamins A, B and C, and eat more green leafy vegetables and fruits. Vegetables can eat more spinach, broccoli, broccoli, radish and so on. But it must be cooked to prevent excessive fiber from aggravating diarrhea. Choose fruits without sour taste, such as peaches, apples and bananas. Eat less foods that are prone to flatulence and bloating, such as fried soybeans, broad beans, peas and sweet potatoes. Because chronic pancreatitis eating a little greasy meat will cause diarrhea, leading to the lack of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K, which will cause malabsorption syndrome such as night blindness, rough skin, hand and foot convulsions, muscle weakness and bleeding tendency. Therefore, vitamin preparations can also be supplemented appropriately according to the situation.
3. Eat in small quantities. Regularly quantify, chew slowly, and don't wolf down. Suitable for frying, frying, baking, etc. Less, more steaming, stewing, boiling, burning, in order to facilitate digestion and absorption, to avoid excessive burden on the pancreas.
4. Avoid irritating food. Irritating food should be avoided as far as possible to reduce the secretion of gastric acid and pancreatic juice and prevent the acute attack or aggravation of the disease. Condiments should not be too sour and spicy, so as not to increase gastric juice secretion and increase the burden on the pancreas.
5. Give up drinking and eat less salt. Alcoholism is a major cause of pancreatitis, which will lead to excessive secretion of pancreas. Protein precipitation often occurs in pancreatic juice of patients with chronic alcoholism, which forms protein embolus to block the pancreatic duct and cause pancreatic juice excretion disorder. Patients eat less salt, and more salt will aggravate pancreatic congestion and edema.
In addition, patients with chronic pancreatitis and chronic gastroenteritis should eat less coarse grains so as not to increase the burden on the pancreas and stimulate the development of the disease. Pay attention to your daily diet-
1. The course of chronic pancreatitis is prolonged, and patients must be nursed back to health for a long time, which is difficult to cure in a short time. Patients should establish confidence in overcoming the disease, actively cooperate with the treatment and persevere.
2. If you have an acute attack, you should go to the hospital in time for further treatment according to acute pancreatitis. If there is no acute attack, go to the hospital regularly.
3. People with diabetes should control their diet and use hypoglycemic drugs under the guidance of doctors. People with diarrhea should adopt a diet with high sugar, high protein and low fat, or add drugs such as pancreatin tablets, and do not abuse antibacterial drugs. If there is biliary tract disease, it should be treated actively to facilitate the recovery of pancreatic disease. In addition, drinking and smoking must be prohibited. Avoid overeating to avoid further damage to pancreatic function.
4. The acute attack of chronic pancreatitis should be fasted. Because chyme and gastric acid enter the duodenum, it can stimulate the duodenum to secrete pancreatic enzyme, which will increase the secretion of pancreatic enzyme, which is not conducive to the recovery of pancreatitis and even aggravate the condition.
