How to manage pituitary tumors in daily life
Disease description:
My close friend's mother was diagnosed with a pituitary tumor. We're not sure how to manage it in daily life. May I ask how a pituitary tumor should be managed on a regular basis?

Dr. Guan Yanlei
Pituitary tumor patients should include foods rich in phospholipids such as egg yolks, fish, shrimp, walnuts, and peanuts in their daily diet to promote brain health. Meals should be taken regularly, avoiding overeating or binge eating. Patients are advised to consume more foods rich in vitamin A, carotene, and vitamin B2. Increase intake of fruits, vegetables, and high-fiber foods, and drink plenty of water. Consciously include eye-protective foods such as eggs, animal liver, swamp cabbage (kong xin cai), and goji berries in the diet.
