Nutrition

  • Start your morning with a balanced breakfast. Eating a healthy breakfast is linked to healthy weights and reduced weight gain over time, improved appetite control to avoid morning munchies, and better intake of key nutrients such as calcium, vitamin D, potassium, and fibre.
  • Plan for those hectic mornings by preparing in advance foods that are high in protein. Protein helps build and repair muscles, keep energy levels up, and provide essential nutrients.
  • For those experiencing cancer related fatigue, having enough vitamin B12 (2.4 micrograms per day) might help. Eggs are a great source. One large egg has 50% of your daily requirement of vitamin B12. Speak to your Registered Dietitian to learn what is right for you.
