Food During Chemotherapy
Chemo Changes Everything
Chemotherapy can alter taste, reduce appetite, cause nausea, and make eating difficult. Many patients find that cold, mild, easy-to-consume foods work better than heavy meals.
Why Smoothies Can Help
- Cold temperature — Often easier to tolerate
- Mild flavors — Adjustable to taste changes
- Drinkable — When chewing is too much
- Nutrient-dense — Calories when appetite is low
- Customizable — Avoid what doesn't work
During Treatment Tips
- Order ahead — ready when you arrive
- Start with small portions
- Choose mild over strong flavors
- Avoid if nothing sounds good — that's okay too
