Nutrition for the Cancer Patient Good nutrition can help patients with the effects of cancer treatment. Receiving the nutrients the body needs to maintain body weight and strength, while nourishing healthy body tissues and fighting-off infections, is an essential part of cancer treatment. However, obtaining adequate nutrition is often a challenge. If you or a loved one is dealing with the effects of cancer, you are invited to join University of Illinois Extension Nutrition and Wellness Educator, Diane Reinhold, and the Healing Pathways-Cancer Resource Center, for this hour-long workshop. Participants will gain an understanding of the dietary challenges faced by those living with cancer, learn the role diet plays during the cancer treatment, and collect fun recipes.
