Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Should cancer patients completely stop eating sugar or carbohydrates?
No. While eating a balanced diet with reduced refined sugar is good for health, completely eliminating natural carbohydrates deprives healthy cells of necessary energy.
Q: How can I increase protein intake if I have no appetite for heavy meals?
Consume small, frequent high-protein snacks such as boiled egg whites, paneer, lentils/dal soup, curd, or protein supplements recommended by your care team.
Q: Is raw fruit juice safe during chemotherapy?
Raw street juices carry infection risks due to contaminated water or unpasteurized fruits. Always eat freshly peeled cooked or thoroughly washed home-prepared fruits.
