Basic principles of a diet that helps with cancer treatment
We'll go over the essential nutritional guidelines and precautions you need to know.

When diagnosed with cancer, anyone can feel fear and confusion, and experience significant changes both physically and mentally.
Anxious minds often waste time and money searching for so-called miracle foods or medicines, but unfortunately, such foods or medicines do not exist.
It's crucial to consume a balanced diet that's rich in vitamins and minerals while maintaining adequate calories and protein. Part 1 covers the basic principles of a diet that will help you during cancer treatment.
We've looked at why 'what you eat' is important during cancer treatment, what you need to pay attention to, and compiled answers to frequently asked questions from patients.
The nutritional guidelines included here help you filter out incorrect folk remedies and information and use the correct information.

Dietary tips for symptoms that may appear during cancer treatment
Useful nutritional information to know before preparing your diet

As cancer treatment progresses, various symptoms such as changes in appetite and indigestion may appear, which may make it difficult to eat even basic meals.
Fortunately, with the growing awareness of healthy and therapeutic diets, a variety of related foods are available, and there are ways to utilize them to supplement nutrition. Part 2 examines various situations where eating becomes difficult and nutritional deficiencies arise, and provides solutions for addressing them. Part 3 presents useful information to keep in mind before preparing anti-cancer dishes.
We introduce foods that have been reported to have high anti-cancer effects in recent research results, and briefly explain how to make sauces and dressings used in dishes in PART 4, and how to measure ingredients.


The Best Recipes to Fight Cancer and Help You Recover
A delicious menu that contains all the necessary nutrients while containing plenty of protein.
Helps to facilitate smooth treatment and restore physical strength

Part 4 introduces a menu created by combining the know-how accumulated by experts from various fields, including nutritionists, medical staff, and patient food menu planning experts, with the latest food culture trends.
When you have difficulties such as loss of appetite, indigestion, or changes in taste, we suggest recipes that allow you to consume balanced nutrition while being as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
The 98 menu items made with a variety of healthy ingredients are divided into six categories: rice, noodles, porridge, a la carte dishes, snacks, and children's dishes, allowing you to choose according to your personal taste and physical condition.
It contains enough protein and all the necessary nutrients in one bowl, making it a real help for treatment and recovery.

Some of the recipes provided are for one serving, while others are for two servings.
After selecting a menu, decide how many servings you want to make, and then refer to the suggested amount to make a meal that is both tasty and nutritious without wasting ingredients.
This snack can be used when the calorie intake is insufficient due to a small meal size. It is convenient to use by making and storing a certain amount at a time, and it contains a menu that allows you to get protein.
They also introduced a children's menu that was not available before.
We hope that the children's menu, which adds cute fun to the colors and shapes of the food while maintaining taste and nutrition, will be helpful to children receiving pediatric cancer treatment.

The included menu is the result of more than a year of trial and error.
It was created with the sincere hope and support for the treatment and recovery of each and every patient enduring a difficult period of illness.
I sincerely hope that “Cancer Diet Guide 2: Essential for Cancer Treatment” will be of some help to cancer patients and their caregivers.
