Dietary Recommendations During Chemotherapy: What Should I Eat?

My doctor recommended a high-protein diet

I found that avoiding spicy and overly fatty foods helped reduce my stomach discomfort. Everyone's different, but bland, easy-to-digest foods worked best for me.

I had mouth sores :( so soft, cool foods like yogurt and smoothies can be soothing. Avoiding acidic or very hot foods can also help.

During my chemotherapy, I was advised to eat small, frequent meals throughout the day to help with nausea. Also, staying hydrated was really important."
