Optimizing Your Cancer Treatment

One challenge many people with cancer face is maintaining their health well enough during treatment to stay on schedule and get all the chemotherapy and/or radiation prescribed by their oncologist. During this class, Dr. Montgomery and Jesse Haas, CNS, LN will discuss complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) options to help you accomplish this goal.

This class is for people recently diagnosed with cancer and/or caregivers who are interested in integrating alternative therapies into a conventional treatment plan to optimize the outcomes, namely:
  • Improve healing from surgery
  • Support tolerance of chemotherapy and radiation
  • Reduce side effects of chemotherapy and radiation
  • Maintain general wellbeing throughout treatment

Topics covered in this class include:
  • Foods and supplements that improve the effectiveness of chemo and radiation,
  • Foods, supplements and alternative therapies that minimize common side effects of cancer treatment, and 
  • Most importantly what supplements can interfere with a cancer patient’s successful treatment with conventional therapies.
Caregivers, friends and family members are encouraged to attend.

Upcoming Dates TBD
