Healthy foods to eat after Pancreatic Transplant

by | May 9, 2020 | Pancreatic Transplant Blog

Liver patients are susceptible to various infections and diseases, making it paramount for liver patients to take complete care.

If an individual is planning for a short distance travel by bike or car or train, he must consult his doctor and do as advised.

Things to keep in mind for short or long distance travel:
1. Consult your doctor before traveling: Individuals with liver disorders may be more susceptible to travel-related illnesses and should consult a health care professional at least 6-8 weeks before departure.

2. Things travellers should carry: Traveller’s should bring a basic first-aid kit with them that is specific to their destination. Insect repellents, medications, and oral rehydration solutions to treat traveller’s gastrointestinal symptoms, alcohol gel to clean hands when no hand washing facilities are available, condoms, and basic wound dressings/antiseptics items that may be included.

3. Carry your supplies of food:
People with certain liver diseases may be prescribed a restricted diet, such as one that is high in protein, low in salt, low in fat, or sugar-free. These diets might be tough to stick to when traveling; having a stock of appropriate snacks on hand can assist.

For Long duration National / International Travels:

2. Travel health insurance: Traveller’s should obtain comprehensive travel health insurance and disclose any pre-existing medical issues; an additional premium payment may be necessary.

1. Research Advanced medical facilities: Medical facilities in larger hospitals with specialized staff are frequently required to treat liver disorders. Travellers should research the health facilities available at their destination before their trip in case of illness.

Vaccination: Hepatitis A and B vaccinations are especially important for travellers with chronic (long-term) liver diseases. Infection with these viruses can result in significant consequences.

Malaria: It can cause serious consequences in traveller’s who have certain liver diseases. Some antimalarial medications are not recommended for poor liver function; professional advice may be required.

Pre-travel preparation
Individuals with liver conditions who intend to travel should be encouraged to thoroughly research their destination and discuss the suitability of their proposed trip with a healthcare professional, ideally before booking.

Ensure to carry all medications

Fitness Certificate: Traveller’s with liver disease may experience consequences that impact their ability to fly, such as hepatic encephalopathy or a proclivity for bleeding. For a patient with jaundice (yellow skin and eyes), a doctor's fitness to fly certificate may be required to board a flight, indicating that they are not infectious to other passengers.

Travel concerns:
Due to the prolonged immobility associated with travel, some passengers are at a higher risk of venous thromboembolism. Travellers, people with active cancer, and recently undergoing surgery are all at higher risk.

Avoid the following: Freshwater fishing, kayaking, rafting, and swimming are all activities that can expose you to Leptospira, a bacteria that can cause liver inflammation. Traveller’s with pre-existing liver illnesses are at a higher risk.

Vaccination:
Routine vaccines should be up to date for travellers with liver illness. Live vaccinations, such as yellow fever, MMR, BCG, and oral typhoid, are contraindicated (cannot be given) in immunocompromised people (those with a weakened immune system), such as those who have had a liver transplant or who are on steroids for autoimmune hepatitis.

Hepatitis A
All patients with severe liver disease should be immunized against hepatitis A, regardless of the reason. Immunization works well for patients with mild liver disease, with response rates equivalent to healthy people.

      Healthy foods to eat after Pancreatic Transplant

      by | May 9, 2020

      A pancreas transplant is a surgery that involves the placement of a healthy pancreas of the donor into an individual (recipient) whose pancreas no longer produces insulin. Mostly, pancreatic transplantation is performed in individuals with type 1 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is generally associated with end-stage renal disease. Likewise, an individual who needs a pancreas transplant may need a kidney transplant.

      Pancreas transplantation is mainly classified into four categories; Pancreas alone transplant, Pancreas-kidney transplant, Pancreas after kidney transplant, and deceased donor pancreas and live donor kidney transplants. However, undergoing any type of transplantation makes it necessary for the patient to maintain a healthy and balanced diet post-surgery. Good nutrition and proper diet play a vital role in healthy recovery.

      A healthy and well-balanced diet plan will prevent high bold pressure, excess weight gain, high blood sugar, infections, post-surgery complications, and overall health. The diet plan prescribed by the nutrition specialist may include:

      • Eating at least 5 or more servings of fruits and vegetables each day.
      • Small meals throughout the day can be more beneficial than the traditional three meals per day plan.
      • Intake of whole-grain bread and cereals can give essential vitamin B and minerals.
      • Intake of fresh fruits like bananas, blueberries, and red berries is beneficial. They provide calories and vitamins necessary for the body. Avoid grapefruit, grapefruit juices, and pomegranates as they affect the immunosuppressive medications.
      • Eat plenty of vegetables like lettuce, spinach, garlic, onion, and potatoes as they can provide potassium to the body.
      • Eat peanut butter, nuts, tofu, and dried beans as they are high in proteins.
      • Eat meats like beef, pork, poultry, and fish as they are high in protein. Limit saturated fats like butter and red meat.
      • Eating low -fat dairy products or drinking low-fat milk can help to maintain calcium levels of the body.
      • Dairy products like mild cheese and fresh yogurt can be a good option to increase protein intake to help overcome muscle breakdown.
      • Avoid concentrated carbohydrates like syrups, jams, jellies, marmalades, cookies, candies, puddings, sherbert, frozen fruits, or juices with added sugar and sweet rolls.
      • Artificially sweetened and sugary foods should be avoided as they do not provide any nutrition. They can increase complications.
      • Use of coconut oil and palm kernel oil can be beneficial as they do not require pancreatic enzymes to be digested.
      • Use fresh herbs and spices and avoid processed food as they have a high concentration of salt and sodium. Greasy fried foods like burgers, pizzas, and onion rings should be avoided.
      • Drink plenty of water and other fluids as they keep the body hydrated. Freshly squeezed juices can be a good option as they provide essential vitamins. Carbonated beverages like sodas should be avoided.

      Following the diet plan can be a booster for rapid growth and healthy recovery. Along with a good diet plan, it is necessary to exercise regularly to improve physical and mental health. After the transplant, exercising helps to maintain a healthy weight and reduces stress. A good diet and regular exercise can lead to overall healthy growth.
