What Should My Nutrition Look Like? (For Those in Treatment & in Survivorship)

  • GIlda's Club Metro Detroit 3517 South Rochester Road Royal Oak, MI, 48073 United States (map)

Come join Dr. Mensah for an enlightening talk about nutrition. Dr. Mensah is an expert in using food as medicine for patients during chemotherapy and radiation in a cancer population, and will be 1 of approximately 100 fellows of the American Board of Naturopathic Oncology practicing in the U.S. and Canada. Dr. Mensah will go over evidence-informed changes you make in your kitchen to create a cancer-fighting diet. His clinical "pearls" will help you understand how your body uses food. He will also do some myth-busting on age-old questions: does sugar feed cancer? Should I be on a Ketogenic diet? Am I supposed to be fasting? How do I starve my cancer? Whether you're newly diagnosed or in survivorship, come ready to learn, share, and connect. Q&A to follow.
