软糯的“温柔拥抱”——粥类
- 南瓜粥：南瓜不仅富含β-胡萝卜素，还有助于缓解口腔溃疡的疼痛，将南瓜煮成软糯的粥,既温暖又治愈。
- 燕麦粥：燕麦富含纤维和多种维生素，是能量的小金库，加入一些新鲜水果丁，如香蕉或蓝莓,让每一口都充满惊喜。
滑顺的“丝滑享受”——汤品
- 鸡汤：老母鸡炖汤，不仅味道鲜美，还能增强免疫力，记得去除非肉部分的油脂,以免增加口腔负担。
- 蔬菜浓汤：选择易于咀嚼的蔬菜，如土豆、胡萝卜和西葫芦，慢炖至软烂，加入适量的奶油或椰奶提味,让每一口都如丝般顺滑。
甜蜜的“小确幸”——果泥与冰激凌
- 水果泥：将香蕉、梨、芒果等软质水果打成细腻的泥状，既补充维生素,又易于吞咽。
- 无糖冰激凌：对于那些渴望一丝清凉的患者，可以选择无糖或低糖的冰激凌，但需注意控制量,以免引起不适。
“咬”不动的智慧——纯肉与蛋白
- 肉泥与蛋白粉：将煮熟的瘦肉或鸡肉打成泥状，或者直接使用蛋白粉冲泡成糊状,提供高质量的蛋白质。
- 蒸蛋羹：用少量水或鸡汤调和蛋液，蒸至嫩滑,可加入少量葱花或虾皮增加风味。
“隐形”的营养——果汁与奶昔
- 鲜榨果汁：选择低酸性的水果，如苹果、葡萄等，榨汁后用纱布过滤掉残渣,减少对口腔的刺激。
- 营养奶昔：使用牛奶或植物奶（如杏仁奶）为基础，加入香蕉、草莓等水果和一勺蛋白粉,搅拌均匀后享用。

When the disease encroaches upon the mouth, a primary source of nourishment and communication, feeding becomes not just a matter of survival but also of quality of life. As a medical expert and self-proclaimed food enthusiast, I present to you and your family a "Guide to Delicious Delights for Advanced Oral Cancer Patients" that is both practical and laced with a touch of humor.
Soft "Cozy Hug" - Porridges

Sweet "Little Joys" - Fruit Pures and Ice Creams
- Fruit Pures: Blend soft fruits like bananas, pears, and mangoes into smooth pures, providing vitamins while being easy to swallow.
