Home diet for patients with pancreatitis
Nutrition for pancreatitis is the most important component of treatment. And it should be organized so that each dish is dietary. But formally correct dishes sometimes do not bring joy - the consumer does not like either the taste or the look. In addition, when eating in public places, it is not always certain that all cooking recipes are followed, and a person suffering from pancreatitis is insured against gastrointestinal troubles, and even complications from the pancreas.
The only way out is to cook according to your own recipes as often as possible.
Nutrition rules for pancreatitis
Since people live in families, it is not very convenient to cook special dishes for a patient with pancreatitis. We must strive to ensure that dietary recipes become a full part of the family menu. To do this, you need to learn how to cook them deliciously. If this succeeds, the bonus will be to reduce the risk of households acquiring diseases of the digestive system, because diet recipes for pancreatitis offer proper nutrition.
Starting products must be fresh and of good quality. Chilled and thawed before cooking, store in the refrigerator for no more than a day.
For beginner home cooks, we present recipes for dishes that can be safely included in the diet for pancreatitis. Cooking, according to dietary recipes, is recommended immediately before a meal. But more often than not, this is an impossible task, especially on weekdays. Therefore, it is allowed to store dishes prepared according to dietary recipes in the refrigerator.
Important! Salads and other cold snacks stay fresh for up to 12 hours in the refrigerator, and dishes that need to be reheated can be stored for up to 2 days.
Salads and appetizers
In classical cuisine, these dishes are designed to excite the appetite, stimulate the production of digestive juices to assimilate several dishes in one meal. With pancreatitis, this is not necessary - the diet does not provide for a large amount of food at a time. Snacks for pancreatitis are used more often as the main composition of a “snack” during the day: in addition to breakfast, lunch and dinner, gastrointestinal diseases, in particular pancreatitis, require 2 to 4 more meals. That's when they use the so-called snacks. Some recipes are given in the table.
