TCM Treatment for stomach cancerIntroduction to Stomach Cancer

Stomach cancer is a disease strongly related with diet. One problem can be eating foods with nitrites like those found in processed / cured meats or fish which can contribute to the development of stomach cancer. Nitrates are converted to cancer causing nitrites by bacteria found in the stomach, like helicobacter pylon which is a bacterium closely linked to this problem. Stomach cancer is most common among people age 55 years or older, and is more common among African-Americans than other ethnic groups. The early symptoms of stomach cancer include: full feeling or discomfort after eating. Weakness, weight loss, indigestion, and vomiting after eating also may happen. Low level bleeding may cause anemia.

In less often cases, the person may vomit blood or pass black stools. As the cancer spreads it can affect the liver, causing jaundice and abdominal fluid accumulation problems. Because the early symptoms of stomach cancer are so difficult to determine and often mistaken for other digestive problems, this cancer often is not detected until it is has spread past the stomach into other body areas. Surgery will work better if the cancer is still contained within the stomach. If the cancer has spread, radiation therapy or chemotherapy may be used. Herbal medicine and nutritional supplementation should always be used as part of a medically directed overall treatment plan for stomach cancer.

Special Hints for Your Diet in TCM
Traditional Chinese medicine is a fantastic art of healing. TCM doctors use not only herbal medicines for treating diseases, but also they pay close attention to the patient's diet. In TCM, it's required that a patient should have a proper diet during the whole course of treatment. A perfect TCM prescription together with a proper diet can make you recover from the disease as soon as possible. Following is our suggestions on your diet.
Foods fit to eat
Be sure to include plenty of foods that contain quercetin in your diet. Quercetin is a bioflavonoid that has strong anti-cancer, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory properties and that is present in high concentration in red and yellow onions. Half an onion a day could reduce the risk of stomach cancer by 50%. In addition to yellow and red onions, good dietary sources of quercetin include apples, lovage, capers, broccoli, cherries, citrus fruits, red grapes, tea, and many berries, including lingonberries, raspberries, and cranberries.
Foods unfit to eat
Research discovered that one of the body's primary weapons against cancer is pancreatin. Pancreatin is essentially a mix of protein-digesting enzymes, but these enzymes also have another purpose: the eradication of cancer. Diets that are extremely rich in protein keep the pancreatic enzymes busy digesting protein, and as a result, little time is left for these enzymes to fight stomach cancer. Many nutritionists recommend a protein-free period of approximately 12 hours a day to prevent cancer.
