Although conquering changes in taste may be a trying challenge, with a little patience and a lot of imagination, it often can be a manageable difficulty. Feeling full, nausea, and vomiting are also a common concern for parents. Eating sweet or starchy foods often and in small amounts may help. Giving your child dry food, such as toast or crackers, before they get up in the morning may also relieve some nausea. If your child experiences nausea, it is a good idea to discuss it with your doctor, who may be able to prescribe medicine to alleviate some of the symptoms.
Good nutrition is both challenging and rewarding.
In the fight against cancer, a healthy diet is often a great weapon in helping alleviate some of the negative effects associated with treatment.
