As a registered Dietitian myself I can only endorse this!

Dietitians have always advocated good nutrition (it is our job!) sadly, there is generally a lack of funding and this basic fact is often forgotten about.

Ho hum - get off my other soap box now!

Keep in mind much of what they are talking of here is about people actively in chemotherapy. But having said that I feel if possible no matter what your dx it is a good idea to talk to a dietitian experienced in oncology to make sure you are getting the right nutrients during and after treatment.
