Look for dinners with less sodium and fat, and avoid fried foods. Eating small nutritious snacks throughout the day works better for those who don't have the energy to cook or sit down for regular meals. A healthy diet provides the body with important vitamins, minerals and nutrients to keep the body functioning at its best. A lower fat diet high in fruits and vegetables and whole grains with small portions of lean meats and fish is best. When battling fatigue, eating like this is often a challenge.
Some people can boost their energy level by taking a daily multivitamin mineral supplement.
But taking megadoses of any vitamin is not recommended. Simply put, people who are better nourished tolerate cancer treatments and associated side effects, including fatigue.
