Nutritional Counseling

Nutrition is an integral part of cancer treatment, recovery and prevention of recurrence. Eating the right foods before, during and after your treatment can help you feel better and stay stronger.

Our cancer centers offer nutritional counseling for cancer patients and families, taught by Registered Dietitians and Registered Diet Technicians. Everyone has different nutritional needs when undergoing cancer treatment. We provide individual counseling for controlling side effects, preventing weight loss or weight gain, management of diabetes during treatment, and establishing healthy eating habits for individuals and families at risk for cancer.

Our dietitians will help educate you and your family on selecting the best diet to meet your needs according to your personalized preferences and tolerances. Our dietitians can also help with menu planning, food selection and preparation, supplementation, enhancing calories or just a dose of encouragement; count on the dietitian to be there to meet these needs.
