Thanks for your question on HCM.
Follow these diet plan for stage 111B colon cancer patients (operated).
1. Avoid oily food. Avoid spicy food.
2. Avoid partially cooked or uncooked food. As chances of gut infection is high with these kind of foods. So better to avoid them.
3. Eat healthy, fresh food. Eat properly, completely cooked food.
4. Avoid garlic in food if possible otherwise colostomy will have foul smell.
5. Drink plenty of water and fruit juices.
