ONCOLOGY DIETETICS
Our Dietitians will provide you with personal support to help you improve your health & wellbeing.
A healthy diet is vital to maintain a good baseline of health and wellbeing during and post cancer treatment. Emerging evidence suggests that diet and weight management as well as regular physical activity are linked to better survival rates, diminished cancer recurrence for those in remission and even disease prevention.
There is a lot of misinformation about nutrition available and it’s important to get guided, evidence based advice around your nutrition from an Accredited Practicing Dietitian with experience in Cancer Care.
