Chemo Diet

I started my chemo session tomorrow. I have ovarian cancer and will start with taxol and carboplatin. My dr. told me to eat lots of fiber. Helpful tips on diet. Thank you in advance.

Hello, I was on taxol and CARB for six rounds for my first cycle of chemotherapy. I ate a diet rich in fiber large sheets of green lettuce like romaine lettuce, broccoli, cabbage, spinach and kale. For the fruits I ate pears, apples and berries. Brans are great, you can have the sound of reason, wheat germ, bran flakes, bran muffins .. all these sorts of things. If you Google plans fiber-rich foods you full of ideas and graphics to follow. vegetable juices are also very good.
All the best to you in your treatments.

Carboplatin is one of the medications I was too.

Try to eat a balanced diet with plenty of fruit and vegetables.

You can see that all tastes, and it can change day to day.

I found a long time favorite is no longer tasted good, and others that I used to eat because I knew they were good for me, but did not really enjoy tasted good!

Bran. IMHO ...
