Oncodietetics
Nutrition in oncology cannot cure the disease, but it can either hinder or assist treatment. The course of cancer and its therapy are sensitive to nutrient, mineral, and vitamin deficiencies.
Balanced therapeutic nutrition for cancer patients not only provides a feeling of fullness but also helps achieve the most comfortable treatment.
Principles of oncology dietetics.
Oncology dietetics includes:
- Primary prevention aimed at reducing the risk of cancer development, eliminating or mitigating the impact of adverse factors on the process of malignant tumour formation. This primarily involves the complete elimination or minimization of contact with carcinogens.
- Secondary prevention, which implies an individual approach to each person, depending on the oncological disease and cancer stage. When composing a diet in this case, the localization of the neo process, the stage of the disease, and the type of treatment used are taken into account.
What can our nutrition program for cancer patients include?
- Working with eating behaviour in cases of increased or decreased appetite
- Optimizing the delivery of essential macro and micronutrients through food
- Effective work with the gut microbiome
- Detoxification after a prolonged treatment process
- Teaching nutrition strategies based on needs dictated by the disease
Diet after chemotherapy.
During chemotherapy, the patient particularly needs the support of a dietitian and dietary changes. The nutrition model and diet structure should consider 'food safety', nutritional features, and metabolic organs during this period.
Chemotherapy is often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, loss of smell and taste, intestinal mucosal pathologies. Tolerance to chemotherapy is individual, and it is extremely important to correctly choose a nutrition strategy focused on personal needs and side reactions.
Nutrition programs for cancer patients developed by our dietitians help effectively treat and live a full life.
