Working With a Registered Dietitian May Improve Chances of Fighting Breast Cancer
by: David Millers

Recent research has shown that eating a healthy diet and using the services of a registered dietitian could improve one's chances of recovering from breast cancer. The premise behind this idea is that eating foods that are healthy for you will provide your body with the nutrients that it needs in order to remain strong during treatment options such as radiation, chemotherapy or surgery.

Most breast cancer patients discover that they nor their doctors are able to predict exactly the way in which they will be affected by treatment. Certainly, a patient's weight and general health prior to their diagnosis can play a role in the way they are affected as well as how they are able to respond positively to treatment. As a result, many patients as well as their physicians are learning to respond to the needs of the body in order to provide the best opportunity for healing.

Toward this end, consulting a registered dietitian could help provide the information that a patient needs in order to maintain a healthy diet during this crucial time. During treatment, most patients will discover that their appetite tends to vary. There may be days when you feel good and you have a strong appetite. On other days, you may not feel your best and as a result your appetite may suffer as a result.

A registered dietitian can help you to understand how to focus on the foods that you need the most in order to provide your body with the maximum amount of strength. Such a diet should include a plentiful amount of fruits and vegetables as well as protein. These foods will provide your body with the nutrients it needs in order to keep up your strength while you fight cancer. In addition, these nutrients also assist your body in rebuilding critical tissues as well as ensuring your immune system remains strong in order to fight infection. A healthy diet can also help you to cope with the side effects of treatment more effectively.

Along with fresh fruits and vegetables, which contain important antioxidants, a registered dietitian will also likely recommend that your diet contains healthy amounts of calcium and vitamin D. According to a study conducted by Harvard, women who consume healthy amounts of vitamin D and calcium are able to reduce their risk of developing breast cancer by one-third. In addition, it is important to make sure that you reduce the amount of fat that you consume, particularly saturated fat.

Flaxseed is an excellent source of ligands, a type of compound that may be effective in preventing cancers that are dependent on estrogen. Flaxseed can be easily added to the diet by sprinkling it on your morning cereal. Along the same lines, make sure your diet is rich in fiber. At a minimum, you should have at least 30 grams per day.

Finally, make sure that you eliminate alcohol or keep it to a minimum while fighting breast cancer.

While it may be difficult to think of eating a healthy diet while your mind is preoccupied with fighting breast cancer, working with a registered dietitian can provide you with the support and the information you need to make healthy eating decisions.
