Life as a cancer survivor
can be difficult to navigate,
but dietetic interns
at UChicago Medicine
Ingalls Memorial Hospital
are offering cancer
survivorship classes that
teach nutrition and cooking
for a healthy lifestyle
during and after treatment.
Registered dietitian
Cheryl Bacon, who will
lead the classes along with
Ingalls dietetic interns
studying to become registered
dietitian nutritionists,
said optimal nutrition can
reduce the risk of cancer
and cancer recurrence.
“While every cancer
diagnosis affects everyone
differently, adequate
nutrition during treatment
and recovery are essential
to promote a positive
outcome and an enhanced
quality of life,” she said.
The class teaches participants
to add healthier
foods in their diets. Instructors
will give a presentation
about a food’s
properties, followed by a
cooking demonstration to
teach easy ways to prepare
and incorporate the food in
meals. Some class topics
include quick meal planning,
how to interpret organic
and non-GMO food
labels, dietary supplement
considerations and debunking
nutrition myths
related to cancer.
Each seminar will also
discuss the science behind
specific foods and their
links to certain cancers.
Additionally, the side of
effects from cancer treatment
can make eating a
challenge. These seminars
will discuss modifications
for meal preparation to ensure
patients get the nutrition
they need.
Bacon said the hospital
aims to make the seminars
interactive, allowing participants
to ask questions
and share their experiences.
While the focus of the
classes is on nutrition and
cancer, Bacon said the information
shared is beneficial
for anyone looking to
make healthier meal choices.
All are welcome. Classes
focusing on colorectal
cancer screening and nutrition
continue at the Ingalls
Flossmoor Family Care
Center once a month on
Tuesdays from 6 to 7 p.m.
Dates for 2019-2020 are as
follows: Nov. 19, Jan. 21,
March 17 and May 5.
