Cancer Weight Regain

Cancer treatment is a debilitating and stressful event for the body. Not only does it cause vast amounts of weight loss, but also a breakdown of lean muscle tissue and huge depletion of nutrients.

It is important that our Dieticians carefully assess your nutritional needs, so that we can create the most efficient route to your remission.

Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy can cause taste changes, and it may be easier for you to drink than eat. We will take all of this into consideration as we design a Weight Gain programme designed around your cancer.

Our Dieticians will focus on food fortification in your eating plan, and will teach you simple ways of increasing both your overall calorie intake and protein consumption, so that you can build a stronger body.

Treatment will be based on natural foods, and we can recommend energy dense food supplementation to complement the eating plan we give you.

Our dieticians may also recommend medical supplementation that your Doctor can prescribe.

Recovery from cancer treatment is a difficult time for you and your family. Our goal is to go the extra mile and give you the time, care and support you need to help you transition this period of your life with integrity.

Call us today on 020 7499 8922 to find a Dietician that is close to you. Or perhaps we can arrange a phone session so that you can have our support from the comfort of your own home. We are here, and we want to help.
