What is
Daily Food Diary Guide? |
For most Cancer patients the toughest
part during and after treatment is to eat enough food to regain
strength. The side effects and treatment itself make this task
painful and daunting.
The Daily Food Diary Guide teaches you to be aware of
your nutrient needs as a cancer patient and then helps you keep
track of these calories during the day.
As a cancer patient you may be put on a High Calorie and High
Protein diet. Our day's meal plan provides:Total Calories: 2200
cals, total Fat: 68 - 73g & total Protein: 75 - 80g. This distribution
of nutrients helps the individual to meet the day's requirements
of 55 - 60% carbs, 15 % protein and 25 - 30% fats. Our aim is
to provide extra calories through dense carbs & fats to prevent
weight loss and the extra protein is to help your body tissue
repair/heal and prevent infections.
This online tool will help you calculate your daily nutrient
intake; especially the calories and proteins, sodium, potassium,
vitamins that you consume each day. This tool also calculates
how many servings from each food group you are consuming on
a daily basis.
Thereafter, you can have your NutritionVista dietitian customize
your diet to implement changes based on your personal likes
and dislikes and side effects, to help you regain your strength. |
