Individuals with a diagnosis of cancer often have special dietary concerns. Cancer treatment may cause side effects such as changes in appetite, eating habits or taste, fluctuations in weight, or nausea. Some dietary supplements and herbals can interfere with cancer treatments. Nutritional counseling and nutrition consultations with a Registered Dietitian with experience in Oncology are available.
A healthy diet supports cell repair and helps prevent infection. In fact, some cancer treatments are more effective if the patient is getting enough calories and protein before, during and after treatment. Programs are designed to ensure proper nutrition during cancer care, minimize the effects of cancer care on one’s diet, and restore health through nutrition during recovery. Please call our registered dietician Jill Norton, RD, LD, at (603) 580-7303 for more information.
