Welcome to Cooking With Cancer

 

“Helping those afflicted with cancer to enjoy a better quality of life through good food.”

Cooking with Cancer is a program designed specifically for cancer care of those persons who are afflicted with cancer, care givers of the patients, and all of those who work in the healthcare industry. The content is recipes researched and tested on patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation.

 

Our goal is to provide a greater understanding of the breakdown in taste, smell and digestion so recommendations for patients are most effective.
