Seven types of foods that patients with colorectal cancer should avoid.

  Seven types of foods that patients with colorectal cancer should avoid. According to the 2007 Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA) 298(7):754).  "Conclusions: Higher intake of a Western dietary pattern may be associated with a higher risk of recurrence and mortality among patients with stage III colon cancer treated with surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy. Further studies are needed to delineate which components of such a diet show the strongest association." The early treatment rate of colorectal cancer is very high. If it does not recur within 5 years, it means that the cancer has a chance to be cured. Therefore, patients with colorectal cancer should pay more attention to their daily diet to avoid deterioration of the disease. Seven types of foods to avoid: 1.

New study: Antihypertensive drugs will not increase the risk of COVID-19 infection

A new study provides reliable evidence for global hypertension patients. Some experts worry that treatment of hypertension drugs may increase the risk of COVID-19, but it will not happen in fact.

The research team of the New York University School of Medicine analyzed 12,594 people who were screened for COVID-19; 5,894 (46.8%) of them tested positive, and of the 4,357 patients with a history of hypertension, 2,573 ( 59.1%) were positive. However, after excluding age and other factors, the analysis of patients' medication showed that there is no substantial correlation between a single drug and the positive rate and the probability of severe illness.

Under normal circumstances, when the blood pressure drops, the human body will trigger a series of mechanisms to increase blood pressure through RAAS, including angiotensin I which is converted into angiotensin II by ACE, which further raises blood pressure.

Harmony Reynolds, deputy director of the New York University School of Medicine's Center for Cardiovascular Research, who led the study, said the study pointed out that taking blood pressure lowering drugs does not increase the risk of COVID-19 infection.

  Can people with diabetes eat chocolate? Eating  dark chocolate every day can help stabilize blood sugar. Studies have found that diabetes patients who take 25 grams of dark chocolate daily can reduce glycosylated hemoglobin, promote insulin secretion, and reduce the incidence of diabetes by 30%. Dark chocolate is rich in minerals such as iron, magnesium and zinc. The cocoa in dark chocolate also contains antioxidants called flavonoids, which may have some health benefits. Anti-oxidation Dark chocolate contains several compounds with antioxidant properties, such as flavanols and polyphenols. Antioxidants can neutralize free radicals and prevent oxidative stress. Oxidative stress refers to the damage caused by excessive free radicals to body cells and tissues. Oxidative stress promotes the natural aging process.
