Illinois [US], February 13 (ANI): An oncology dietitian specializes in helping cancer patients and their caregivers develop a plan for good nutrition. By achieving good overall health, proper nutrition can help reduce the risk of cancer, keep patients healthier during treatment, and combat side effects and illness. New research has found that although studies suggested that many cancer patients experienced food insecurity, few oncology dietitians routinely asked them if they were having problems affording or obtaining food.
