Chemotherapy not only attacks cancer cells, but also impacts other normal cells. Your body therefore becomes exhausted and requires much nutrition. If you must go under chemotherapy for months, it is definitely important that you get sufficient nutrition and maintain your strength.
Meanwhile, you may suffer such adverse effects as nausea, vomiting, changes in taste and smell, diarrhea, constipation, stomatitis, and fatigue. You may eat less and your body may absorb less nutrition from foods due to such side effects.
We suppose that you have various ideas based on your experience for promoting eating in such times. We hope that this handbook will be of help to you as you undergo chemotherapy, regarding how you should eat in your daily life, and at a shelter if you happen to experience a disaster during a chemotherapy period.
