Nutrition and the Cancer Journey

Does what you eat affect cancer? Are there foods that can help fight side effects of chemo? How do I as a caregiver or cancer patient know what meals to make to help fight cancer?

Join us monthly, in person or virtually, for our nutritional lecture series Nutrition and the Cancer Journey led by Shaye Arluk, MS, RD Oncology Dietitian and 23-year cancer survivor. Each lecture will concentrate on simple methods for integrating nutrient-rich foods into your meals and maximizing the benefits of food for optimal well-being. A food demo will be a part of every in-person lecture.
