Diet Precautions After Laparoscopy

1. Avoid greasy: Because the concentrating function of the gallbladder is weakened after the operation, the bile secreted by the liver is continuously discharged into the duodenum like a trickle. If you eat a lot of greasy food, it is impossible for the liver to release a large amount of bile to help digestion at one time, and the bile will be relatively deficient, and the fat in the food will not be fully digested, which is prone to diarrhea.

2. Try to avoid fried foods (french fries, fried meat, etc.), sweets (cakes, chocolate, cream, etc.), high cholesterol foods (eggs, liver and shrimp, etc.) and green vegetables (lettuce, pods, etc.). After that, the previous eating habits can be gradually restored, but it is recommended that patients should focus on soft food in their daily diet, reduce the intake of calories and refined carbohydrates, and reduce the intake of fat and cholesterol while also taking more dietary fiber.

3. The patient can enter a small amount of warm boiled water 6-8 hours after the anesthesia is awake. On the first day after the operation, the patient is encouraged to get out of bed. After the intestinal function is restored, a sugar-free and dairy-free liquid diet can be eaten: such as porridge, egg flower, etc. Gradually transition to semi-liquid, general food. Fasting of gas-producing food for 1 week after surgery. After 1 week, eat low-fat, moderate protein, vitamin- and fiber-rich foods.
