How to arrange three meals during chemotherapy

During chemotherapy, the three meals can be analyzed from three aspects: breakfast, lunch and dinner.

1. During chemotherapy,

patients should try to eat nutritious and digestible foods within one hour after getting up. Breakfast can generally choose nutritious and digestible foods, such as oatmeal, steamed bread, steamed eggs, etc., and increase the intake of fruits or juices in an appropriate amount to supplement vitamins and minerals, which is conducive to strengthening physical fitness.

2. During

chemotherapy, appetite of many patients will decrease, so light and nutritious foods such as noodles, porridge, chicken, fish, etc. can be selected for lunch to increase nutrient intake.

3. Dinner

patients should also eat light and digestible foods, such as bread and vegetable soup. Dinner should be eaten within two hours after chemotherapy to ensure that the body can absorb nutrients in time.
