The Colorectal Cancer and Nutrition resource is part of our Patient Education & Empowerment Series at the GI Cancers Alliance.
This resource was created to educate patients and caregivers on nutritional guidelines for colon and rectal cancer patients. It highlights the need for adequate hydration, vitamins and minerals and provides information for managing a variety of nutrition-related symptoms. It’s vital to follow a well-balanced diet during and after cancer treatment that can help you feel better, maintain your strength, and speed your recovery.
