In the presence of such a disease as acute pancreatitis, especially at the time of its exacerbation, developing a diet for the patient should pay special attention to creating the most sparing regimen for the pancreas. After all, with acute pancreatitis it is in an inflamed condition. Therefore, as a rule, at the initial stage of treatment, the patient is categorically prohibited from eating, only non-carbonated mineral water, such as Borjomi, can be taken, so as not to strain his pancreas too much. Water should be taken only in a warm form.
After a few days, after the onset of exacerbation of this disease, with a mild disease of the pancreas, eating can be somewhat varied and expand the diet. The basis of nutrition for such patients is carbohydrate food, which includes porridge prepared on the water, vegetable soups( without meat), pore from potatoes and carrots. Also, as nutrition to patients, during an exacerbation of the inflammatory process and impaired functioning of the pancreas, you can use a semi-liquid consistency jelly, such a drink has a calming effect on the pancreas, especially useful oatmeal. Further in the diet of the patient acute form of pancreatitis, during periods of exacerbation you can include jelly, prepared from non-acidic juices and not strong tea, with a small amount of sugar. Such products do not provoke pancreas activity very much.
Proper nutrition, as important in the treatment of pancreatitis and the restoration of normal functioning of the pancreas, as well as taking medications. With mild forms of such a disease already from the third day, you can start to eat little by little in a sparing regimen, and a week later appoint a standard diet number 5, for patients with acute pancreatitis. This diet has a very gentle effect on the digestive organs and pancreas. In this diet is clearly balanced content of proteins, fats and carbohydrates in the patient's food undergoing treatment, as well as indicated the thermal treatment of all types of products. The use of food products that are not stipulated by the diet of patients with acute form of pancreatitis, especially during periods of exacerbation of the disease is strictly prohibited. First, the daily diet uses dishes made from pureed products, which most gently act on the pancreas( an erased version of the diet).And then they transfer the patient to the unread menu.
A careful attitude to the pancreas is very important not only in the treatment of exacerbation, but also after the completion of the course of drug therapy. Restrictions in nutrition for a similar patient can last from six to twelve months, depending on the severity of the aggravation of the inflammatory process.
