Benefits of good nutrition during cancer treatment¹

When you’re healthy, eating enough food to get the nutrients and calories you need is not usually a problem. Most nutrition guidelines stress eating lots of vegetables, fruits, and whole-grain products; limiting the amount of red meat you eat, especially meats that are processed or high in fat; cutting back on fat, sugar, alcohol, and salt; and staying at a healthy weight. But when you’re being treated for cancer, these things can be hard to do, especially if you have side effects or just don’t feel well. Good nutrition is especially important if you have cancer because both the illness and its treatments can change the way you eat.   They can also affect the way your body tolerates certain foods and uses nutrients.

The nutritional needs of people with cancer vary from person to person. Please speak with your healthcare provider if you have questions about, or want to discuss your specific nutritional needs. Adequate nutrition may help you:

• Feel better.
• Keep up your strength and energy.
• Maintain your weight and your body’s store of nutrients.
• Better tolerate treatment-related side effects.
• Lower your risk of infection.
• Heal and recover faster

Acupressure is an ancient healing art that’s based on the traditional Chinese medicine practice of acupuncture. With acupressure, you put pressure on specific places on your body. These places are called acupoints. Acupressure on the P6 (Nei-Kuan) point, located between the two central tendons below the wrist, may help some persons reduce nausea and vomiting, a common side effect of chemotherapy.2 

Acupressure can be tried on your own by using your fingers to apply pressure to P6. If you find that acupressure on the P6 point helped reduce nausea, nausea bracelets may offer similar relief.  View this video for instructions on how to apply acupressure to the P6 point.

Aromatherapy is the use of essential oils derived from plants to support overall wellness. Essential oils are used in perfumes and food flavorings, as well as aromatherapy. They are very concentrated, produced by distillation or expression. Most essential oils have been classified as GRAS (generally recognized as safe), at specified concentration limits, by the FDA.

There are many essential oils used in aromatherapy. Each plant's essential oil has a different chemical make-up that affects how it smells, how it is absorbed, and how it may affect the body. The effects of aromatherapy are theorized to result from the binding of chemical components in the essential oil to receptors in the olfactory bulb, potentially impacting the limbic system.

Clinical trials have investigated aromatherapy and results suggest that aromatherapy may improve quality of life concerns and overall wellness. Safety testing on essential oils has identified very few side effects or risks when used as directed.
