Nutrition During Breast Cancer Treatment

As I am sure you know, October is National Breast Cancer Month! Remember: Making Strides 5K Walk is THIS Saturday, 9th at Las Olas. Click here for more details.

Nutrition during breast cancer treatment is far different from nutrition advice that you may be used to hearing. A Registered and Licensed Dietitian, like those at the Family Nutrition Center, can help you or a loved one create a specialized meal plan that takes into account the different medications and treatments you may be using.

As always, a diet including a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes is essential for good health. Fiber (found in the above foods) is especially important to ensure proper elimination if you are on bed rest.

On behalf of the Dietitians and Staff at the Family Nutrition Center - we hope to see you at Huizenga Park on Saturday. We'll be there Making Strides!
