Pancreas. Nutrition for pancreatitis

When a person learns that he has chronic pancreatitis, he is very upset. Even more disappointed if a neighbor pours oil on the fire, stating that the disease is not treatable and that the pancreas can not be operated since it can not survive without it. In fact, everything is not so. The operations are also carried out to remove it. Later, of course, if the diet and recommendations of the treating physician are observed, such patients normally live. In most cases, a person is not treated until he is taken away by an ambulance with an attack of acute pancreatitis. During treatment and after returning home will have to follow a certain diet, because now the "affected" pancreas does not tolerate food. At least half a year or a year will have to limit itself to eating.

Diet with pancreas should be presented mainly vegetarian soups, boiled meat without veins, dishes from home fresh cottage cheese, porridge, juice from berries, puddings, fruits. Going to bed, it is necessary to drink curdled milk or kefir, juice from beets or carrots.

When the pancreas is sick, the diet prohibits the use of any alcoholic beverages, baking, fatty meat and fish, fat, canned foods, smoked, garlic, radish, onions, radish, pickles, sour cream and cream. Broths can only be bony, secondary.

The patient's health is 90% dependent on nutrition in the dietary period. The pancreas does not forgive food with the slightest inaccuracies. Any violation can provoke another attack.

If all the same acute pancreatitis has passed into a chronic form, what should I do? Remember that treatment is always carried out in a complex: medicines and nutrition. Without diet therapy, there can be no question of treating the patient, either in the remission phase or in the acute stage.

In order to restore the pancreas, human nutrition should contain a lot of protein component. Protein should be 120-130 grams per day, and 60-70 percent of it should be a protein of animal origin, and vegetable - the rest 40-30 percent. It is allowed to eat rabbit meat, chicken, turkey, lean pork, beef. Under the ban are geese, ducks, game, fat pork. And the meat can only be cooked or cooked for a couple, preferably pre-chopped, than chunks.

Fish, too, can only eat boiled or cooked steamed. In chronic pancreatitis, it is very important that lean fish and meat have a lipotropic effect, that is, they prevent fatty degeneration of the liver.

The same property has and home non-acidic cottage cheese. Contraindicated cottage cheese from the store. From it you can cook pudding for a couple or rub with milk and sugar. You can not drink a lot of fresh milk (not more than 1/2 cup), it is better to cook soups, cereals, jelly.

In the daily diet as an additive can include eggs, omelets steam, dishes from whipped proteins.

Proteins of vegetable origin must enter the body together with porridges, pasta, yesterday's bread from white flour. Beans and dishes from them are prohibited.

How will the pancreas respond to the carbohydrate diet? Nutrition with their increased presence strains the insular apparatus and can trigger the onset of diabetes mellitus. Therefore, the amount of carbohydrates should not exceed 350 grams per day and more covered by the use of honey, jam, sugar or syrup.

Of the carbohydrate products are already mentioned bread and cereals, as well as zucchini, pumpkin, carrots, beets, potatoes. Vegetables must be cooked for a couple, as the decoction of them increases the function of the pancreas, which in this case is undesirable. Apples are baked, other fruits and berries, except for sour, you can eat a little, one kind per day.

The volume of food eaten per day should also be reduced from 3-3.5 kg to 2-2.5 kg.

Diet for diseases of this kind should be gentle chemically, mechanically and thermally.
