Nutritional Solutions to Alleviate Cancer Treatment Side Effects & Teach Your Client how to Advocate for Themselves
with Kirstin Nussgruber, BCHN®
Session Description
A growing number of certified nutritionists in our community are increasingly being confronted with past or new clients being diagnosed with cancer and requiring often debilitating conventional cancer treatments. These clients turn to the practitioner they have worked with and established a trusting rapport for help during these challenging times – You.
Oncology nutrition is not everyone’s specialty. This presentation is geared for those of you who wish to rise to the challenge of continuing to support their clients whilst undergoing cancer treatment by
- teaching you a foundational understanding of the array of side effects they face that directly impact their nutritional status
- how you can use nutritional tools to keep your clients nourished, whilst also
- teaching them with evidence-based science how they can advocate for themselves so they get their own medical oncology team on board an integrative cancer care approach
