Nutrition not only forms the foundation of an individual’s health but can also be utilized to provide a more therapeutic function, helping to either overcome disease or to complement other therapies being used to treat illness.At the Menen Centre, we focus on utilizing foods to help support the body through various disease conditions to optimize healing in the body.Nutrition can be supportive while working with other medical treatments that may deplete essential nutrients from the bloodstream, can help boost energy in acute or chronic health care conditions, and can work with individuals that are focused on boosting their already healthy lifestyles.
For cancer patients, the side effects of chemotherapy or radiation treatments may include reduced appetite, nausea, bowel changes or tissue sensitivity which can be addressed through nutritional modifications and suggestions.At the Menen Centre we review the risks and benefits of various nutritional plans with patients and we take care to ensure that recommendations provided to patients are safe for their optimum benefits.
