How does it
help me manage my cancer treatment? |
Nutrition
and diet are very important when you are healthy, but they become
critical when your body is under attack.
This tool allows you to work closely with your caregiver and your
doctors by keeping a constant track of your dietary requirements and
actual intakes. It helps you anticipate your cycle of side effects
and learn to deal with them before they escalate, prior to, during
and after the treatment.
It assesses the quantity and quality of the food you eat and helps
you and your dietitian understand your diet pattern and personal likes
and dislikes.
It helps track symptoms to make you aware of unpleasant reactions
that may occur during and after your treatment. This tool provides
an exhaustive list of nutritional information on each and every food
item you consume, thus enabling you to plan meals & then incorporate
necessary changes for you to eat better.
It enables you to send out a complete report to your oncologist as
often as once a week, to help him treat your illness and help you
handle your side effects better. By entering and tracking your daily
condition as it goes up and down, you will start to see patterns of
your symptoms based on your treatment cycles.
Use this tool to become more aware of your symptoms, and then learn
how to address them before they become complicated and/ or life threatening.
The Diet Guidance System menu plans for cancer patients are carefully
thought out suggestions by our dietitians for you to follow and are
based on the knowledge that you need to eat a balanced diet with the
right nutrients, portion sizes and frequency.
There are no standardized recommendations that we can base our suggestions
on, except to stress the need to make you eat healthy and right. |
