Nutrition Care for Breast Cancer Patients eBook

Good nutrition can provide the fuel necessary to help you heal.

The phrase “You are what you eat”  is important to remember, but it has a critical impact when your body is fighting and trying to heal. Our new eBook can help you create a healthy, sustainable diet during and after treatment.

Nutrition is an important, but sometimes overlooked, part of breast cancer treatment. After all, the right fuel can help manage side effects and help the body heal.

Our new eBook Nutrition Care for Breast Cancer Patients, written by registered dietitian Annie Cavalier, will teach those in treatment and their caregivers about creating nutritious meals that are easy to prepare and safe to eat.


Topics in this free eBook include:

  • Nutrition 101
  • Food safety and why it is important
  • Managing treatment side effects with nutrition

“Thank you for the eBook! It reinforces many of the things I learned from the nutritionist at my oncology clinic, but also has a lot of hints and ideas for going forward with a beneficial diet. I will refer to it regularly!” – Jan
