It focuses on providing appropriate nutrients to manage treatment side effects, maintain optimal nutritional status, and enhance overall well-being during and after cancer treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. This tailored nutrition approach aims to mitigate treatment-related complications, improve energy levels, and support the body's ability to heal and recover.
