What We Do.....
Cancer Prevention and Survivorship
Since 40% of cancer diagnoses are linked to lifestyle factors, working with an oncology dietitian or health coach can help you reduce your cancer risk. Whether you focus is on prevention or survivorship, it is important to follow evidenced-based research on diet and physical activity
Nutrition During Cancer Treatment
We specialize in helping people receiving cancer treatment improve their nutritional status, tolerate cancer treatment side effects, and enhance quality of life. Maintaining adequate nutrition, can improve immune system, maintain muscle strength, improve energy level, assist in healing, and improve the response to cancer treatment. My goal is for everyone with cancer to have access to the services needed to make their treatment journey less stressful and provide them with the support needed
Plant-Based Nutrition/Mediterranean
The Mediterranean diet is primarily plant-based, with whole grains, vegetables, legumes, fruits, nuts, seeds, herbs, and spices forming the core of the diet. Olive oil is the main source of added fat. Fish, seafood, dairy, and poultry are consumed in moderation, while red meat and sweets are only eaten occasionally. This diet is recommended for cancer prevention and weight management.
There is strong evidence suggesting that a Mediterranean-style diet can help reduce the risk of weight gain, overweight, and obesity, which is crucial because excess body fat is linked to at least 12 different cancers. The diet's positive impact on weight ma be due t its higher fiber content, healthier fats, and lower calorie density compared to typical Western eating patterns.

Nutrition Tips
Grateful for Nourishment
This season, let's be thankful for the nourishing foods that fuel our bodies and support our health. Fresh fruits, colorful vegetables, whole grains, and wholesome foods provide important nutrients that help our bodies thrive.
For those affected by cancer, nourishing your body can be one small way to care for yourself through every stage of the journey. Remember, there is no perfect way to eat, and food should never be a source of guilt or stress. Every small step toward nourishment counts.
Healthy eating isn't about perfection; it's about progress, balance, and appreciating the goodness food brings to our lives.
Be thankful for the food that nourishes, the choices that support our health, and the opportunity to care for our bodies—one bite at a time. ❤️🍎🥦
