Overview Of Foods That May Help Patients Through Cancer Treatment

Drink Clear Liquids

Hydration seems to be fairly important, particularly during cancer treatment. This may be partially due to treatment causing appetite loss in some patients. Some clear liquids can help with certain nutrients. They may also assist in relieving other side effects, which may let a patient's appetite return. Clear liquids appear to be easy to digest. They may not be entirely clear, but should be easy to see through either way. Clear liquids seem to include water, clear broths, tea, and fruit juice.

In certain cases, clear liquids may not be enough, and some patients should also consider trying full liquids. These liquids appear to be easy to digest as well. However, they may be more nutritious than clear liquids. Examples seem to include milky drinks, blended ice cream, and fruit juice with nectar.
