Ensure That You Do Not Overeat
It is important that chemotherapy patients eat properly. One of the side effects of chemotherapy is that it causes loss of appetite and this can lead to weight loss if the patient refuses to eat properly. Not eating properly may worsen the level of fatigue.
Patients who undergo chemotherapy are advised to eat an adequate amount of food even if they lack the appetite to eat. Eating properly helps to provide more energy and also helps to replenish some tissues that were lost during the chemotherapy treatment. Overeating is however discouraged as nausea is one of the side effects of this treatment and it might cause one to vomit.
