INTRODUCTION OF CANCER TYPES SYMPTOMS DIETARY MODIFICATION PRINCIPLE OF DIET CONCLUSION

2.  TYPES
 SYMPTOMS
 DIETARY MANAGEMENT

3.  Division – uncontrolled cell division
 Growth – formation of a lump (tumour) or
large numbers of abnormal white cells in the
blood
 Mutation – changes to how the cell is viewed
by the immune system
 Spread – ability to move within the body and
survive in another part

4.  lung cancer
 Breast cancer
 Colon and rectal cancer
 Endometrial cancer
 Pancreatic cancer
 Kidney cancer
 Prostrate cancer
 Thyroid cancer
 leukemia

6. Objective of nutritional therapy
 To meet the increased metabolic demands of
the disease and disease and prevent
catabolism as much as possible
 To alleviate symptoms resulting from the
disease and its treatment through adaptation
of food and the feeding process.

7. Calorie requirements are
 20-25kcal/kg for non ambulatory or
sedentary patient
 30-35kcal/kg for slightly hypermetabolic,
weight gain/anabolism
 40-45kcal/kg for hypermetabolic or severly
stressed patient, signicicant malabsorption.

8. Additional protein is required for regeneration,
healing and rehabilitation.
 0.8-1.0g/kg- normal maintenance level
 1.5-2.5g/kg if increased protein demands
exist. E.g. protein losing enteropathy, hyper
metabolism or extreme wasting

9.  Optimal intake of vitamins and minerals are
recommended
 Vitamin D(400-800IU) helps to protect
against several types of cancer including
breast cancer.

11.  High calorie
 Moderate protein
 High fiber
 Adequate vitamin and minerals
 Avoid transfat.
 Cut down sugar and refined food.
 Limit and red meat
 High intake of fruit and vegetable(without
much cook)

16.  Cancer is a disease of Division, growth and
spread
 It has a number of causes many of them are
preventable
 The survival of the patient is determined by
the stage of the disease, the earlier the
detection or the smaller the tumour the better
the survival
