It is not suitable to take large amounts of supplements just after surgery, and it is not suitable for the elderly to take large amounts of supplements. Not only will they not be absorbed, but they will burden the spleen and stomach, affect absorption and transportation, and be detrimental to the body.
After the operation, there will be a certain amount of damage to the vitality, which may cause Qi deficiency and blood deficiency. Therefore, supplements should be taken from these two aspects. We recommend several recipes to try:
1. I don’t need to say more about this porridge, as it is described in great detail in Zhongliba People’s “It’s Better to Seek Medical Treatment than to Seek Yourself”. It is most suitable for replenishing the spleen and stomach, and it is even better for people who have just had surgery. However. You can beat these three into powder and make a paste for breakfast, or you can make porridge and drink it. Remember to buy all three at the drug store.
2. Ginger, red dates and longan tea. Add appropriate amount of water to boil the three, then simmer for half an hour to make tea.
3. You can use plasters to warm and nourish the body. The biggest advantage of plasters is that they are slow-heated and can slowly regulate the body. Unlike some traditional Chinese medicines that are too strong and too hasty, the elderly may not be able to bear it, but this will take a long time. Among them, the most common one is Guyuan plaster (available in pharmacies). In addition, you can prepare a plaster according to your grandma’s specific situation or read the plasters introduced in Chinese Medicine to prepare your own.
4. In terms of food, vegetarian diets also have many nourishing foods. Remember that five grains are for nourishment and five fruits are for help.
Foods that nourish qi and blood include: glutinous rice, black rice, brown rice, poria, donkey hide gelatin, longan, red dates, black fungus, brown sugar, astragalus, dangshen, angelica, wolfberry, yam, black beans, etc. ,
In addition, eat more beans to supplement protein, and mushrooms such as shiitake mushrooms, hericium, tea tree mushrooms, etc. to improve immunity.
That’s all I can think of for now. If you need anything, please leave me a message.
I wish grandma a speedy recovery~
