Dietary Considerations for Breast Fibroadenoma
The dietary considerations for fibroadenoma of the breast mainly include the following aspects:
1. High-protein, low-fat diet: Patients should consume more high-protein foods such as dairy products, fish, legumes, and eggs to supplement amino acids, enhance nutrition, and boost immunity. At the same time, they should reduce intake of high-fat foods to prevent fat accumulation in the breast, which may worsen the condition.
2. Consume foods rich in vitamins: Fresh fruits and vegetables—such as carrots, leafy greens, celery, apples, and kiwis—are rich in vitamins and should be consumed regularly to meet the body's nutritional needs.
3. Limit foods high in estrogen: Since fibroadenoma is closely related to estrogen levels, patients should avoid foods containing high levels of estrogen, such as donkey-hide gelatin (ejiao) and royal jelly.
4. Avoid unhealthy eating habits: Patients should quit smoking, limit alcohol consumption, avoid stimulants such as coffee and strong tea, and refrain from eating fried, smoked, grilled, or pickled foods.
