Hola!
I would like to know if you have some idea what are the best foods to be eaten by cancer patients?
Our household will definitely change our menus for recently my mother in law has been diagnosed with the Big C.
The internet is a big resource of ideas but when I did my research some specific food tends to be in conflict. For now, we will settle to vegies and fruits and we are starting to ban processed foods.
Any idea?

Yes the internet has many advices, but are they correct?
Does the doctor/oncologist have any advice?
I am so sorry to hear of your mother in law.

The doctor haven't said anything yet. It was only lastweek that we knew of the results. Maybe during the next check we could ask the onco.
Ps. That is a sad reality here in my life, we could just call our onco for no nos are provided in public hospitals.

I believe you should consume less sweet foods and beverages and more green ones. Fish are fine and meats can be reduced, however I believe there are several seafood products she should avoid (I am not sure about this). When my mother got it, she decided to stop using any sugar at all and switch to more boiled foods rather than fried ones.

What you need to do is ask her Doctor . The Doctor should be able to give you a list of food items.
