Preventing Malnutrition In Cancer

Nutritional therapy is an important part of treatment.

Many people with cancer find there are times when they cannot eat as much as usual. 

This can be caused by the cancer or side effects of treatment, making eating difficult. 

Side effects such as nausea, food tasting different or just not feeling hungry can often lead to weight loss.


Some cancers make you use up more energy which means you may lose weight even if you are eating well. It is important to try and keep your weight stable during treatment. 


Dietitians can advise on dietary changes to help manage symptoms or ways to fortify food to help maintain weight. We may suggest you take nutritional supplements to help prevent further weight loss and help you gain weight.

We can support you with managing symptoms
