As a cancer dietitian, my role involves providing specialized nutritional guidance and support to individuals who are undergoing cancer treatment or are cancer survivors. My main objectives are to manage symptoms, maintain strength and energy levels, support the immune system, and optimize overall health and well-being throughout the cancer journey.
