Both tobacco and alcohol are well-known carcinogens
.
No matter what kind of wine, even if you don't covet a cup, just one cup a day, it will increase the risk of
cancer.
After the treatment, I quit smoking and alcohol
.

Two noes: Do not rely on dietary supplements to prevent cancer recurrence

There is no reliable evidence that a combination of one or more health supplements or dietary supplements can prevent cancer, reduce cancer recurrence, or prevent secondary cancer
.
There is even evidence that consuming high doses of beta carotene from dietary supplements increases the risk
of lung cancer in smokers.
Although some studies have shown that calcium may reduce the risk of rectal cancer, consuming too much calcium from supplements may increase the risk
of prostate cancer.

Dietary supplements are used to supplement, not enough to eat or lack of body to supplement, can not rely on supplements to prevent cancer recurrence, especially should avoid blind use of high doses of supplements
.
A healthy and balanced diet is king, and getting nutrients from food is safe and effective
.

One maintenance: maintaining a healthy weight

A good diet can nourish the body, help with recovery, and exercise can also help us maintain a healthy weight
.
Being overweight also increases the risk of
cancer.
Patients with breast and prostate cancer are prone to weight gain after treatment, and they need to pay more attention to weight and maintain their weight within
a healthy range with healthy eating and regular exercise.

The healthy range of body weight can be simply measured by body mass index (BMI), which ranges from 18.
5-23.
9 kg/m2
for adults in our country.

BMI = square of body weight (kg) / height (m
).

For example, lao Li weighs 73 kg (146 kg) and is 1 meter 75 (175 cm) tall, and his body mass index (BMI) is equal to 73 ̧1.
752 = 23.
8 or 73 ̧1.
75 ̧1.
75 = 23.
8
.
Although within the range of healthy weight, but close to 23.
9, there is a risk of being overweight and requires more attention
.

Concentrate:

1.
This diet strategy is for pan-cancer patients, some cancer patients have special dietary attention after treatment, please follow the doctor's advice
.

2.
Remember that a healthy diet is a model, remember not to trust that eating a single superfood can be healthy, food diversity can achieve balanced and comprehensive nutrition, in order to bring a variety of nutrients that nourish the body, promote health
