Nutrition Support for Cancer Treatment
Nutrition plays a crucial role during cancer treatment and recovery, helping you to maintain energy and feel your best. Cancer treatment can present several challenges to eating that can impact your health. Research shows that those who are adequately nourished do better throughout their treatment. Through classes, individual consultations, and provision of resources, Registered Dietitian Nutritionists at Torrance Memorial are here to support you and your family during your cancer journey.
Consider enrolling in one of our nutrition classes or making an appointment for a personal consultation with a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN). Torrance Memorial RDN’s are available to help you make informed choices about nutrition with a physician’s order (Medical Nutrition Therapy) or through self-referral (Nutrition Education and Wellness). We also invite you to access our free resources that address some of the more commonly experienced challenges related to cancer treatment and provide general nutrition recommendations for cancer prevention, treatment, and recovery.
