Cancer treatment brings a whole set of nutritional hurdles that, honestly, can feel overwhelming without specialised expertise. The disease itself, plus treatments like chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgery, can really cause trouble with how your body absorbs nutrients, keeps your weight steady, and manages energy as you try to recover.
Connecting with a qualified cancer can help you sidestep malnutrition, boost your treatment, and just generally make life a bit more manageable during this tough stretch. At Q-Slim studio, Nutritionist Pallavi Srivastava,with her expert team, provides personalized, high-quality care.Studies show that almost half of cancer patients start treatment already low on key nutrients, and things can get even trickier during hospital stays or more intense therapies.
We take a thorough, science-backed approach to cancer nutrition, aiming to support you before, during, and after treatment. Nutrition isn’t only about managing side effects, it plays a vital role in long-term recovery and avoiding complications that come from not getting enough of the right stuff.

Role of a Nutrition in Cancer Care
Cancer nutritionists and dietitians offer specialised support for the wild metabolic changes that happen during treatment and healing. Since so many patients face malnutrition early on, getting professional nutrition help makes a real difference.
Importance of Nutritional Assessment for Cancer Patients
Treatments like chemo, radiation, or surgery basically flip your body’s nutrient needs upside down. We know each one comes with its own nutritional curveballs, so careful evaluation is key.
Nutritionist Pallavi Srivastava and her team look at your current nutritional status, treatment side effects, and what your body specifically needs right now. We’ll check muscle mass, weight changes, and how well your digestion is holding up.
We pay attention to appetite swings, weird taste changes, and any trouble absorbing nutrients—these are all pretty common, and they really affect your ability to eat well on your own.
Key things we look at:
How much protein and calories you really need
Any micronutrient gaps
Hydration (it’s easy to overlook)
Side effects tied to your specific treatment
This kind of deep dive helps us spot and prevent muscle loss and keep your immune system in fighting shape. We’ll also keep an eye on inflammation and stress markers that can slow down recovery.
Personalised Dietary Planning in Cancer care
Cancer patients need tailored nutrition plans that fit with their treatment. Q- Slim studio builds meal plans that take drug-nutrient interactions into account and help you handle the ups and downs of therapy.
We don’t just look at your diagnosis—we factor in your treatment type and your own food preferences. Anti-inflammatory foods and nutrient-rich choices are at the heart of what we recommend.
Side effects like nausea, mouth sores, or digestive trouble? We’ve seen it all. Our plans flex as your needs shift through different phases of treatment.
Treatment-specific focus areas:
| Treatment Type | Nutritional Focus |
| Chemotherapy | Managing nausea, staving off weight loss |
| Radiation | Helping tissues heal, keeping you hydrated |
| Surgery | Building strength before, healing after |
| Immunotherapy | Supporting immunity, fighting fatigue |
We’re careful with supplements—nothing that’ll clash with your meds. And we keep tabs on how you’re doing, tweaking your plan as your body responds and recovers.
Difference Between Nutritionist and Dietitian in Cancer Support
Nutritionists and dietitians both help with cancer nutrition, but their backgrounds and what they’re allowed to do aren’t quite the same. Knowing the difference can help you get the right level of care.
Registered dietitians have strict credentials and can offer medical nutrition therapy. Clinical Nutritionist Pallavi Srivastava at Q-Slim studio works hand-in-hand with cancer doctors to fit nutrition into your overall treatment.
Nutritionists might have different training, and usually focus on broader wellness rather than clinical or medical nutrition therapy.
Cancer nutrition is complicated—there’s a lot to know about drugs, treatment plans, and how the body changes. Dietitians get specific training in these areas.
We team up with your medical crew to track how you’re doing and adjust nutrition as needed, whether that means tube feeding, tackling severe malnutrition, or helping you move between care settings.
Who you choose depends on what you’re dealing with. If things are complicated, registered dietitians can offer the clinical know-how and medical coordination you’ll need.
Key Nutritional Strategies During Cancer Treatment
Getting nutrition right during cancer treatment means being strategic—side effects are real, and keeping your strength up is no small task. We lean on certain foods and combos that help you recover, even when your appetite’s not cooperating.
Importance of Nutritional Assessment for Cancer Patients
Treatments can zap your appetite, mess with your sense of taste, and make digestion a chore. When you’re hungry, we suggest starting with high-protein foods—they’re crucial for keeping up muscle mass.
Small, frequent meals tend to be easier than trying to force down three big ones. Eating every couple of hours keeps your energy up and doesn’t overwhelm your system.
Chemo can make everything taste off. Strangely enough, cold foods are often more palatable, and bland, mild flavours usually go down easier.
Hydration tips: Sip little bits during meals instead of chugging, so you don’t fill up too fast but still get enough fluids.
If you’re dealing with mouth sores, steer clear of spicy, acidic, or rough foods. Think smooth—soups, smoothies, purées—so you get nutrients without extra pain.

Dietary Approaches to Prevent Recurrence
Plant-based foods are packed with protective compounds that might lower the risk of cancer coming back. Honestly, we lean toward whole foods—fresh, colorful, unprocessed—since they just seem to deliver more of what your body needs.
Antioxidant-rich foods are a big deal for fighting cellular damage:
Food Category | Examples | Key Nutrients |
Berries | Blueberries, strawberries | Anthocyanins, vitamin C |
Cruciferous vegetables | Broccoli, cauliflower | Sulforaphane, folate |
Leafy greens | Spinach, kale | Beta-carotene, iron |
Fibre intake—shoot for 25-35 grams a day. It’s not always easy, but high-fibre foods do wonders for your gut and might even help keep colorectal cancer from making an unwelcome return.
Try to go easy on processed meats, too much alcohol, and those sneaky refined sugars. They’re linked to more inflammation, which is the last thing anyone recovering from cancer really wants to deal with.
Mediterranean-style eating has been getting a lot of attention in cancer prevention circles. Think olive oil, fish, whole grains, and a heap of veggies—while keeping red meat to a minimum. There’s just something about this way of eating that feels both nourishing and sustainable.
Checking in with a nutritionist now and then is honestly a smart move. As your recovery unfolds and your energy shifts, your diet might need a few tweaks along the way.
Confidently fight the cancer journey.
