Many GIST patients have questions about eating a healthy diet after being diagnosed with GIST, whether it is relative to taking Gleevec, Sutent or recovering from surgery. For those lost in the maze of scientific information, this presentation aims to simplify the principals of sticking to a healthy diet. Alice Sulkowski will address the basic ingredients of maintaining a healthy diet for GIST patients and strategies for managing nutrition problems and concerns during and after treatment. Eating well will help patients regain their strength, rebuild tissue, and feel better overall. By the end of this webcast, you may decide to change what you eat. |
