   From the health theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the principle of health during the recovery period of the disease is "Coldness and temperature, unrestrained emotions, diet, and avoid labor and rest". In more popular language, it can be summarized as the following four points:

  1 Appropriate cold temperature: That is to actively prevent the occurrence of common diseases. Since cancer patients are generally weak in constitution, they are often easily accompanied by concurrent diseases, such as upper respiratory tract infections, pneumonia, enteritis, diabetes, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Active prevention and treatment should be carried out during the rehabilitation period.

  2 Changqingzhi: That is to adjust the mentality and be optimistic. We must be full of energy, optimistic, and have a colorful life arrangement. This may lead to victory in the fight against cancer. If you are mentally intense, emotionally fragile, and emotionally prone to fluctuations, you will cause restless food and sleep, and your body''s ability to fight cancer will decline, resulting in a worsening of your condition.

  3 Diet: that is to pay attention to adjust the diet. Cancer patients should try to improve their appetite during the recovery period, and their meals should be clear, meat and vegetables, coarse and fine, and coarse and fine, and both can not be monotonous and not too greasy. It is suitable for easy digestion and absorption. When you eat, you should have a relaxed environment, a happy mood, not partial eclipse, but do not eat too much, let alone overeating.

  4 Avoid working and rest: you should pay attention to the combination of work and rest, and have a regular life: to live a regular life, neither stay in bed for over-breeding, nor overwork, and do not follow your temperament. Regular life can make the body in a normal working state, so that the recurrence and metastasis of the tumor can not be taken advantage of. Proper physical exercise is required. Enhanced physical fitness naturally enhances the ability to fight cancer. Patients can choose activities such as walking, jogging, Tai Chi, sword training, swimming and other activities according to their physical condition. The amount of exercise is based on not feeling tired.
