Nutrition

WHAT IS IS?

Nutrition is the foundation of health. When facing catastrophic illness or injury nutrition is critical. Proper care and feeding of the body is the foundation of a survivor.

Tips:

You must become an expert on nutrition.

Schedule an appointment with Jesse Rich for nutrition counseling.

Avoid highly processed foods and foods with high sugar content.

Stay hydrated throughout the day.

Cancer treatment, such as radiation therapy, can severely impact the health of you gut microbiome and digestive system. Ketogenenic and fasting diets can support the healing process, however, there are many uniformed individuals advocating, and making money, on these strategies. These particular strategies must be personalized and monitored by a clinician who is an expert in these strategies.
