Your Diet and Recovery
Protein. Your body needs more of it than usual after your operation. It needs it to repair cells, fight infection, and heal
incisions. Here's what you can do to get more:
Add protein powder or dry milk to meals.
Add grated cheese to vegetables, potatoes, rice, and salads.
Eat high-protein snacks such as almonds, peanuts, and cheese.
Right after surgery, boost your protein without worrying about calories. It will help you heal and get your strength back. If you need to lose weight, you can focus on that late
Phytochemicals are nutrients in plants. Some have been studied for their cancer-fighting benefits and their ability to keep cancer from coming back.
Soy. Soybeans contain phytoestrogens. These are nutrients similar to the estrogen in your body. Sources of them include soybeans (edamame), tofu, soy milk, and miso soup. Some researchers think they can help protect against the kind of breast cancer that needs estrogen for its growth, but others don't. Ask your doctor whether eating one to three servings of soy a day would help you. It's possible it may interfere with
hormone therapy or some other treatment.
Antioxidants . Many vegetables, fruits, nuts, and other foods have them. Good choices include broccoli, liver, carrots, blueberries, and mangoes. Antioxidants protect your cells from damage. Dietitians say you should eat a balanced diet with a variety of fresh foods to get them. It’s better for you than taking supplements.
Lycopene. This is one type of antioxidant. It puts the red in tomatoes and the pink in pink grapefruit. It might help fight breast cancer.
Beta-carotene. Carrots, apricots, yams, and other vegetables and fruits get their orange color from beta-carotene. Eating foods that have a lot of it may lower the risk of breast cancer returning, some studies suggest.
