3 Eating the right kinds of foods before, during, and after cancer treatment can help you feel better and stay stronger. This information is not meant to replace the advice of a medical professional. If you have any questions or concerns about your nutritional needs, you should talk to a doctor, nurse, or dietitian. A registered dietitian (RD) or a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) can be one of your best sources of information about your diet and what to eat during cancer treatment. Some dietitians are board-certified specialists in oncology nutrition and have the letters “CSO” after their names. If you’re going to meet with a dietitian, be sure to write down your questions before your meeting so you won’t forget anything. It is also a good idea to bring someone with you to help remember what is being said. Contact the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics at eatright.org for more information or to find a dietitian 9 2 2
