Ask the Expert about Nutrition
Our ask-the-expert series helps answer your questions about breast cancer, whether you are newly diagnosed, in treatment or years beyond treatment. The topic for the month of November is nutrition. Learn more.
If you are undergoing breast cancer treatment, nutrition may not be the first thing on your mind. But following a smart diet strategy may reduce your risk of recurrence—and make you feel better. A balanced diet can also help maintain strength, improve immune function and promote healing.
If you have questions about how nutrition can help you improve your overall health and quality of life, ask Living Beyond Breast Cancer expert Kathryn A. Allen, MA, RD. We will begin posting Ms. Allen’s answers to select questions on an ongoing basis throughout the month.
