S2Ep5 Gut Reactions: The Importance of a Dietitian, pt 2

This episode is the 2nd of a 2 parter!

Listen to S2Ep4 for the 1st part of this 2 part podcast.

Lora Silver, MS, RDN, CSO, CDN, CNSC an oncology dietitian from Yale Smilow Cancer Center joined me in a conversation about why it's important to have a dietitian on your care team. Food is complicated in all cancers, but particularly CRC. And there is a lot of misinformation out there about it.

Join me in learning how dietitians (and care partners!) can help cancer patients eat better, and feed that gut microbiome too.

In this episode, we talk more specifically about foods to eat in Cancerland, including talking about a session out of the ASCO conference about anti-inflammatory foods and colorectal cancer. And how as care partners, we can help our loved ones in a very meaningful way, through food and nutrition.
