Chapter 2582 Eat 3 Catties of Chinese Cabbage a Day

"Diet? It's normal." The patient said, "I lost weight a while ago, but didn't I stay in the hospital twice? Back to normal diet."

Su Yun seemed to remember something, but what the patient said didn't match up, and his brows were furrowed a little bit tighter.

"You mean that cruciferous plants contain glucosinolates, and taking a large amount of them will lead to insufficient iodine intake, resulting in goiter?" Zheng Ren asked.

"There is only one explanation." Su Yun looked at the patient suspiciously and said.

"Generally not, a study of 5 euthyroid subjects showed that after drinking 430 grams of kale juice twice a day for 7 days, the subjects' average 6-hour thyroid radioactive iodine intake It was 2.52% lower than the baseline level, but the serum thyroid function test was normal." Zheng Ren said.

"That's a normal person, and it may not be the case for abnormal hypothyroid patients." Su Yun insisted.

"Doctor, doctor, I like to eat meat, but I like to eat it. During the period of losing weight, I almost died of pain. I don't have the energy to do anything. Life has lost its direction and meaning. What do you mean, you struggled After millions of years, I have finally climbed to the top of the food chain, why should I be a vegetarian again?"

The patient was acquainted, and he had just met Zheng Ren and Su Yun, and he was already sloppy when talking.

Zheng Ren also felt that what Su Yun said was reasonable, so he thought about it carefully, and then said: "You are talking about a survey in the journal "Thyroid" in 2015, right?"

Su Yun nodded, he felt that something was wrong, and he didn't sit with the patient and talk nonsense. If it was another patient, they would have sat together and chatted long ago with Su Yun's temper.

Today this "old" patient finds it weird.

"I have seen an extreme case - there was a case report in the New England Journal in 2010, an 88-year-old woman ate 1.0-1.5kg of raw cabbage a day for several months in order to control blood sugar, and finally developed mucus Edema and coma." Zheng Ren said: "If it weren't for the serious New England report, I wouldn't have believed it, the amount of cabbage I ate was too much."

"Three catties of Chinese cabbage a day, isn't that feeding rabbits?" Although the patient couldn't understand what the two were saying, he could understand simple and basic things, such as three catties of Chinese cabbage a day.

"It's quite extreme. Do you eat normally?" Su Yun asked, "Did you control your diet because of diabetes?"

"No, I've said that I like to eat meat. Vegetable leaves are all nonsense. It's not a problem to eat them. I'll be hungry after a while. I don't have gout or diabetes. I have high blood pressure but it's not serious. If you can still eat, hurry up and eat, don’t wait until you’re old and you won’t be able to eat.”

The patient said, swallowing hard, "I'm like this now, I'm sick intermittently, I guess I won't be able to eat until I'm old."

"No, it's just hypothyroidism complicated by goiter..." Zheng Ren hesitated for a moment. The two diseases were linked together, but it had nothing to do with thyroid storm and sudden goiter leading to dyspnea.

Chronic enlargement of the thyroid gland caused by different reasons is called goiter. Goiter can be divided into simple goiter and hyperthyroidism. The former can be divided into diffuse goiter and nodular goiter.

The diagnosis of the patient was hypothyroidism, and the diagnosis of the big trotter was consistent with that of 912, so it could only be considered as a simple goiter.

The more Zheng Ren thought about it, the more something was wrong.

"When you were hospitalized a few times ago, what did the doctor say?" Zheng Ren asked.

"My disease is very strange, let me check it out. The specifics are very complicated, and I am not a medical student, so I can't come up with so many professional words." The patient said, "But I don't want to do biopsy and iodine radiation. Such examinations were fatal, and then they were simply discharged from the hospital and went home."

There is a certain degree of poor medical compliance, and patients themselves have their own opinions, even a little extreme. Zheng Ren had his own judgment on the patient, and he continued to ponder the information he had just heard.

Long-term high intake of cruciferous vegetables may reduce thyroxine production, but the patient clearly stated that he did not have this condition.

And the words long-term and large are really difficult to achieve.

Especially for 3 catties of Chinese cabbage a day, if you want to persist for a long time, it is not something ordinary people can do. It is already similar to the behavior of an ascetic monk. Zheng Ren frowned when he thought about letting himself eat 3 catties of Chinese cabbage every day.

"What do you usually eat?" Su Yun asked.

"Meat! Nothing but meat!" When the patient mentioned the word "meat", his eyes lit up. "It is said that carbohydrates are true love, but I don't think so. No matter how delicious Northeast rice is, it is not as good as a large piece of fatty rice." Meat tastes good."

Eating meat, fatty meat, does it matter? Zheng Ren searched a lot of information carefully, but in the end he was still at a loss.

"I still think it has something to do with the cruciferous family." Su Yun insisted, "This extreme situation can only occur if you eat a lot of cruciferous plants for a long time. Carrots, do you eat all kinds of radishes?"

"If you don't eat it, it will turn into water if you bite into it. How can there be meat?"

"How do you eat meat? Mustard mustard and shredded pork?" Su Yun continued to ask.

"No, just cook it and eat it in big pieces. Dip it in garlic, eat meat in big pieces, and drink heavily. This is the greatest enjoyment in life." The patient was a little frustrated when he said this, "I'm going to be hospitalized this time. meat."

"Any order, you can eat meat. The hospital side is very convenient. It's not delicious, but it's edible." Zheng Ren said.

"It's not the same. I still have to make the best ones myself. Speaking of the price increase of pork this year, I spend a lot of money a day..."

As he talked, the patient shifted the subject again.

Zheng Ren is also quite helpless. This is the most typical Kanye. If he doesn't stop him, he will probably be able to talk until tomorrow morning.

"Wait a minute, do you usually... take any health supplements?" Zheng Ren suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Don't eat... that's wrong." The patient glanced at Zheng Ren secretly, and said in a low voice, "Doctor Zheng, I recommend something to you."

Zheng Ren instantly became vigilant.

"I'm not asking you to buy it, I'm not in business, and I'm not a wechat business, so don't be so guarded against me." The patient saw Zheng Ren's vigilance, and immediately explained: "Speaking of health care products, I started using goji berries after I was 40." Soak in water, but that stuff works slowly. Guess what I eat?"

"Where is the guesswork here?" Zheng Ren had no intention of answering the question at all.

"I'll go! Are you eating Maca?" Su Yun suddenly realized, "I'll tell you!"
