Berries. Throw some blueberries or raspberries into a smoothie or
stir them into a bowl of yogurt. One cup of berries will add 4 to 8
grams of fiber to your meal. ブルーベリー1カップで4g~8g
Beans. Beans and lentils are packed with fiber: each ½-cup serving
contains 5 to 8 grams. Take your taco up a notch by adding some black
beans to the mix, or try an online recipe for homemade hummus and dip
with carrots and celery for some crunchy, satisfying finger food. 豆2分の1カップで5g~8g
Nuts and popcorn. Contrary to what you may have heard, these foods
are fine to eat after you recover. Looking for a way to conquer a
sweet-and-salty craving between meals? Pair a handful of nuts or a few
cups of air-popped popcorn with a piece of fresh fruit. Three cups of
popcorn and a pear, for instance, pack more than 8 grams of fiber
together. ナッツあるいはポップコーン:両手分のナッツとポップコーン3カップ分(これに梨一個)で8g
Green veggies. When eating salad, choose spinach or kale over
regular lettuce. Oven-roast asparagus or Brussels sprouts in balsamic
vinegar for a delicious addition to dinner. One cup of these veggies
contains 4 grams of fiber. 緑色野菜のサラダ:レタスはやめてほうれん草やケールにしよう。1カップ分で4g
A 56-year-old man presented to the emergency department with a 5-hour
history of throat swelling and pain and difficulty breathing that was
exacerbated by supine positioning; he had not had any obvious antecedent
trauma. His medical history included prostate cancer, hypertension,
hyperlipidemia, deep-vein thrombosis, and stroke. Medications included
warfarin (presumably for deep-vein thrombosis), antihypertensive agents,
and a statin. He was afebrile, and the physical examination was notable
for minor swelling of the posterior oropharynx. Laboratory studies
revealed a normal white-cell count, an international normalized ratio of
more than 11, a prothrombin time of more than 120 seconds, and an
activated partial-thromboplastin time of 127 seconds. Radiography of the
neck revealed marked soft-tissue swelling that was causing mass effect
on the airway (Panel A); the findings on a subsequent computed
tomographic scan of the neck were consistent with a retropharyngeal
hematoma, which was probably caused by supratherapeutic anticoagulation
(Panel B shows the sagittal view, and Panel C the axial view; the arrow
in each panel indicates the hematoma). Transnasal laryngoscopy revealed a
bulging posterior pharynx but a patent airway. The patient was
administered 6 units of fresh-frozen plasma and was admitted to the
intensive care unit for observation. His coagulopathy resolved, as did
his symptoms, and he was discharged 4 days after admission.
