"Nourish classes prompted me towards
healthy eating. It was fun learning
about nutrition as it relates to cancer.
The bonus was sipping on delicious tea
during the class and tasting the recipes
made as demonstration. The recipes
were fantastic and delicious!"

Healthy eating plays a critical role in wellness, but sometimes cancer and its
treatments can make it challenging to know what to eat. Nourish is an
evidence-based program that dispels nutritional myths, and provides the
latest recommendations tailored to cancer patients. Through engaging
sessions led by a professional dietitian, participants learn practical tips for
selecting and preparing foods that promote well-being. Nourish has been
shown to reduce the side effects of cancer and its treatments, while helping
people to manage their weight, improve their strength, and enhance their
overall health and wellbeing.
