Nutrition

Nutrition is a major concern for patients with cancer who may be faced with issues related to proper diets, weight management, and possible changes in appetite and taste. Patients of Memorial Sloan-Kettering can request a personal nutritional consultation with one of our certified dietition-nutritionists who will be able to assess a patient's current eating habits and provide advice on how to evaluate various diets.
