Do grapes irritate radiation proctitis?

[lakeheadguy]

I have gone 4 days without any anal leakage of rancid odor. Today I ate green grapes. Two hours later (digestion cycle) rancid odor is back. My guess grapes. Are there any other foods that I should avoid?

Maybe, maybe not. As our bodies react to and recover from treatment there is always a chance for a reaction. Or it could be an effect that's really happening elsewhere and you only see the downstream evidence. Realistically there is so much going on physiologically, food-wise, pharmacologically, etc. Proving that grapes are the culprit is neigh on impossible - an unfundable research project. You can still eat the recommended heart healthy Mediterranean diet if you omit grapes.

Welcome lakeheadguy! My naturalpathic oncologist halted all of my high sugar rich ripe fruits . No sugar was his first dietary step for me . I’ve had 7 yrs of this . Six with no signs of pc . Still , I ve done much more dietary and nutrition than our average bear here has .. most western docs have two weeks of training in nutrition . All three of my conventional MOs and my uro don’t give a shit about diet . No animal proteins , dairy or processed food also . Good luck .

Just include a "pre-squash party" foot bath. ;0)

But that takes away the original taste and aroma.....

(However that bath water makes a good H2o and Tonic)...

Gives new meaning to "Bottoms Up"....
