What dietary adjustments can help manage treatment side effects?
Different side effects require specific dietary adjustments. For instance:
- Nausea: Small, frequent meals and bland foods can help. Ginger tea and crackers may also alleviate symptoms. - Taste Changes: Experimenting with different flavors and seasonings can make food more palatable. - Mouth Sores: Soft, non-acidic foods and avoiding spicy or rough-textured foods can reduce discomfort. - Diarrhea: Eating low-fiber foods and staying hydrated with electrolyte-rich drinks can help manage this side effect.
