5 Wrong beliefs, which "cancer slang" food is true?

👉 When someone in their home or someone close to suffers from "cancer," the first thing that usually follows is not just a doctor's treatment plan, but a large series of 🤔 "forbidden foods" shared on social media, listening to them tell each other, until the patient finally has almost nothing to eat but boiled vegetables and empty rice! 😱

👉 You know that...Many times the body cannot fight cancer, not because of bad medicine, but because the body is "malnourished" until it is exhausted from the first day 😱. Today, we will come to "unlock" five beliefs about slang food that are deeply rooted in Thai society.

(1) "Sugar is the cancer diet. Cut it over...Don't eat! "🤔

🔴 belief: If we starve of sugar, the cancer cells will starve and die. Truth: Cancer cells are even worse! If they don't have sugar to eat, they will steal the energy from our muscles and fat instead. The result is that the patient will become thin, weak, and unable to accept chemo. Is the cancer still alive?

✅ Middle Way: Don't stop 100%, but avoid "brown" or dessert to control weight and insulin levels.

(2) "Red meat (cow / pig) Do not touch, and the necrosis will grow." 🤔

🔴 Belief: Eat big meat and cancer will like to spread more quickly. Truth: During the treatment phase, the body needs a huge amount of "protein and iron" to make leukocytes against disease. If there is a lack of meat, the leukocytes will be so low that the doctor has to stop the treatment (which is more scary than eating meat!)

✅ Middle Way: Eat the right amount, avoid a lot of lean parts, and the important thing is "100% cooked."

(3) "Eggs and chickens...Mother's slang! "🤔

🔴 belief: Eat eggs and sores, eat chicken and cancer spread because of hormones. Truth: Egg whites are the cheapest and easiest to digest "premium grade protein" for patients. Hormones in chickens. Currently, the standard farm system is so strict that there is almost no residue.

✅ Middle Way: Boiled eggs are real friends of cancer patients. You can eat them without personal allergies.

(4) "Coconut water and soy milk...There are dangerous hormones. "🤔

🔴 belief: Women have breast or uterine cancer. Drinking is absolutely prohibited because they have estrogen. Truth: Plant hormones (Phytoestrogen) are many times weaker than the hormones in us. Research around the world confirms that drinking normal amounts of soy milk is "safe" and may even reduce the likelihood of repetition.

✅ Middle Way: Drink 1-2 glasses a day as usual. Refreshing and getting protein supplements.

(5.) "Of the sea / of the fermented, eaten, inflamed wound." 🤔

🔴: The word "slang" is always associated with seafood. Truth: In medicine, there is no slang food, only the word "cleanliness." Seafood has a very high omega-3, but to be careful is "raw" and "germs" that may be contaminated.

✅ Middle Way: Eat shrimp, shellfish, crabs, fish, but must be recooked and clean. The fertilizer is recommended to avoid it because of the risk of infection in the bloodstream.

✨ summary, "edible" is not equal to "good to eat." ✨

👉 The most important goal of eating during cancer treatment is to make the body "strong enough to take medicine." Don't let apocryphal beliefs take energy away from patients. 😍
