Good Nutrition for Cancer RecoveryThis cookbook is aimed at patients experiencing cancer related weight loss. The cookbook has been created specifically for people who find it hard to maintain weight. The Good Nutrition for Cancer Recovery cookbook is aimed at patients experiencing cancer related weight loss and has been developed by the Nutritional Science Department in University College Cork and the Cork Institute of Technology in collaboration with Breakthrough Cancer Research. The cookbook was created by dieticians and includes information, advice and a bank of nutritious recipes to combat weight loss. The project was co-funded by the HRB and allowed for the production of 19,000 copies which are available free in cancer centers throughout Ireland. The book can also be downloaded or viewed online. The book is available from us free of charge but we ask for a €5 donations to cover post and package. |
Eating Well with Swallowing Difficulties in CancerThis cookbook, supported by Breakthrough, is aimed at cancer patients experiencing chewing or swallowing difficulties. Difficulties chewing and swallowing food affect many cancer patients suffering from cancer of the mouth, throat, neck, oesophagus, and stomach and eating frequently becomes an enormous challenge for these patients. |
