Resection of the stomach is an operation during which the surgeon removes a significant part of the organ and then the digestive tract is restored. Unfortunately, sometimes such intervention is the only treatment option on the way to recovery.
Most often, the operation is performed with extensive malignant neoplasms( for example, stomach cancer, multiple polyps, etc.) or stomach ulcer. But despite the breakthrough in medicine, the removal of a part of the body is still difficult to tolerate by patients, while having a minimum of complications. The main stage on the way to health is nutrition after resection of the stomach. But what we can eat and how much, we will consider in more detail.
What happens to the digestive tract after the operation

- chewing food is not slow, slow, careful;
- to exclude from the diet products containing a large number of carbohydrates( sugar, buns, jam, etc.);
- to increase the consumption of protein foods( lean meat, fish, eggs, cottage cheese);
