Nourishment Notes

Eggs

Eggs are a great source of protein. Protein is important for building new and healthy cells. Protein needs are often increased when going through cancer treatments.

Mushrooms

Mushrooms contain B vitamins which may help increase energy levels when tired. They are also rich in glutathione, a substance that may help protect cells from inflammation.

Tomatoes

Tomatoes are rich in antioxidants, particularly lycopene. Lycopene may prevent or slow down the progression of certain types of cancer, including breast and prostate cancers.

Fatigue Buster

  • Mushrooms

    Use pre-sliced mushrooms and pre-diced onions to reduce cooking preparation time.

  • Garlic

    Purchase pre-minced garlic.
