Nutrition for acute pancreatic pancreatitis

Inflammation of the pancreas( pancreatitis) often occurs in chronic and virtuallyNot subject to complete cure. Only strict adherence to the recommendations of the doctor allows the patient to maintain a more or less familiar way of life, without significant disruptions in the functioning of the digestive system.

However, a sharp deviation from the established regime can cause an acute attack of inflammation of the pancreas, which requires an urgent visit to the doctor and the subsequent adherence to a strict diet.

Often, doctors recommend that during an exacerbation, one should observe absolute starvation during the first three days. At this time, you can only take liquid in the form of non-carbonated mineral water( Borjomi, Essentuki 4).

In case of positive dynamics, you can gradually introduce into the diet warm tea or herbal decoction. And with a sharp inflammation of the pancreas, fluid intake should be done only in small sips.

Follow-up food for acute pancreatitis should be frequent, regular and in minimal single doses. Moreover, you can eat only lean, unsalted and boiled.

The diet for exacerbation of pancreatitis is one of the methods of treatment of the disease. The most popular in the acute condition of the pancreas is diet 5, which has two options. The first - is applicable in the period of two to three weeks of acute pancreatitis. The second is after the onset of improvement.

General order of nutrition during the exacerbation

After compliance with the fasting regime, you can switch to dietary food at number 5( option 1).

So, during the exacerbation of the exacerbation, after lowering the level of enzymes, you can gradually begin to eat vegetable soups, cooked without the use of spices( salt very little).

In the general menu of diet number 5 on the third or fourth day, you can include the following dishes and products:

1. Mashed lenten porridges on water, which are recommended for breakfast or lunch only;

In general, a diet during an exacerbation of pancreatitis is carbohydrate in order to stimulate the secretion of the diseased organ.

This diet should be observed for six months if there is an exacerbation of pancreatitis. Only in this case, doctors can guarantee a sufficiently long remission in the disease of the pancreas.
