Diet and Cancer
One in 3 people are affected by cancer during their lifetime. A cancer diagnosis affects an individual in many different ways, depending on the type and location of the cancer. Diet plays a vital part in both preventing and coping with cancer.
Eating well to reduce risk of developing cancer
On 1 November 2007, the World Cancer Research Fund released its recommendations for how to prevent cancer. The key points are as follows:
· Be as lean as possible without becoming underweight
· Be physically active for at least 30 minutes every day
· Avoid sugary drinks. Limit consumption of energy-dense foods (particularly processed foods high in added sugar, or low in fibre, or high in fat)
· Eat more of a variety of vegetables, fruits, wholegrains and pulses such as beans
· Limit consumption of red meats (such as beef, pork and lamb) and avoid processed meats
· If consumed at all, limit alcoholic drinks to 2 for men and 1 for women a day
· Limit consumption of salty foods and food processed with salt (sodium)
Eating well with cancer
It is essential that a person with cancer eats as healthy a diet as possible, as this will help them cope with their illness and their treatment. Unfortunately, dietary problems frequently occur at all stages of a person’s cancer pathway. Common problems affecting a person’s food intake include:
· Fatigue
· Poor appetite
· Feeling full quickly
· Weight loss
· Taste changes
· Physical problems as a result of the cancer or treatment e.g sore throat, oral thrush, nausea, vomiting etc.
· Emotional problems e.g. stress, anxiety, depression
A dietitian is able to provide a patient with individual dietary advice and coping strategies to help combat the above problems.
Dietetic service:
A Macmillan Dietitian works full time for Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust. Dietary advice is offered to any patient who finds that their illness is affecting their oral intake. This dietitian will see patients who are undergoing cancer treatment. The majority of people seen need advice on how to boost their oral intake and help them to maintain their nutritional status during their cancer treatment.
