UNDERSTANDING PERSONALIZED NUTRITION

Personalized nutrition for cancer patients represents a holistic, patient-centered approach that acknowledges the individuality of each person’s battle with cancer. Unlike generic dietary guidelines, this approach considers a patient’s unique genetic makeup, medical history, and current health status to create a tailored nutrition plan.

FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE

UNRAVELING THE ROOT CAUSES

Miskawaan Functional medicine seeks to uncover the root causes of illness. In cancer, this involves identifying factors like inflammation, oxidative stress, and hormonal imbalances that may contribute to disease progression. Nutrition plays a pivotal role in addressing these factors, a core principle of our approach at Miskawaan Integrative Cancer Care.

INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE

BRIDGING CONVENTIONAL AND ALTERNATIVE APPROACHES

Integrative medicine combines the best of conventional and alternative therapies. It acknowledges the value of dietary interventions alongside traditional treatments like chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. This holistic approach aims to enhance treatment outcomes and improve the overall quality of life for cancer patients, a fundamental aspect of our integrative care at Miskawaan.

PERSONALIZED NUTRITION: SOME KEY ELEMENTS

  • Genetic Profiling: Genetic testing helps identify genetic variations that may influence nutrient metabolism and cancer risk. This information guides dietary recommendations tailored to an individual’s genetic makeup, a practice integral to our personalized care approach.
  • Nutrient-Dense Diet: A diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains provides essential nutrients that support the immune system and overall health during cancer treatment, a principle deeply ingrained in our nutritional guidance.
  • Antioxidant-Rich Foods: Antioxidants combat oxidative stress, a contributor to cancer development and treatment-related side effects. Berries, leafy greens, and nuts are excellent sources part of our recommended dietary choices.
  • Anti-Inflammatory Foods: Chronic inflammation can fuel cancer growth. Incorporating turmeric, ginger, and fatty fish into the diet may help mitigate inflammation, an approach we integrate into our nutrition plans.
  • Phytochemicals: Plant compounds like curcumin and resveratrol possess cancer-fighting properties. These can be obtained from spices, herbs, and certain fruits, options often explored within our personalized nutrition strategies.
  • Individualized Supplements: In some cases, supplements like vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, and probiotics may be recommended to address specific deficiencies and enhance treatment outcomes, considerations made within our comprehensive care at Miskawaan.
