Making the right food choices can help patients feel better when they're going through cancer treatment. Our dietitians specialize in nutrition therapy for cancer patients at any stage of their treatment, from diagnosis to survivorship.
We understand nutrition impacts all cancer types and treatments, including radiation, chemotherapy, immunotherapy and surgery. Our dietitians can customize a cancer patient's nutrition care, never losing sight of their individual needs and treatment goals.
Clinical Nutrition Services for Cancer Patients Include:
- Guidance for optimal nutrition before and during treatment
- Management of treatment-related side effects impacting nutrition or eating
- Use of vitamins, minerals and herbal supplements
- Meal planning for cancer-related weight control
- Support in managing enteral (feeding tube) and parenteral (intravenous, or through the vein) nutrition
- Healthy lifestyle and nutrition choices for cancer prevention, recovery and survivorship
