How Can Caregivers Encourage Cancer Patients to Eat?
Here are some tips for caregivers to help cancer patients consume nutrient dense snacks:

Encourage hydration with nutrient-rich fluids like smoothies, broths, and herbal teas. Make meals visually appealing and appetizing. Be patient and understanding, as patients' appetites can fluctuate daily.
