March is National Nutrition Month, a time when the importance of nutrition in our overall health and disease prevention is brought to the forefront. Nutrition plays a pivotal role not just in maintaining health but also in the fight against cancer. In recognition of this critical month, Hunterdon Hematology Oncology and the Hunterdon Regional Cancer Center are extending an open invitation to oncology patients, cancer survivors, their families, friends, and healthcare providers. This event promises an engaging and informative discussion on the crucial link between nutrition and health, specifically tailored for those affected by a cancer diagnosis.

With her extensive experience and specialized knowledge in oncology nutrition, attendees can expect to gain valuable insights into how nutrition impacts cancer care and prevention. The discussion will cover a range of topics, including dietary strategies to support the body during cancer treatment, the role of nutrition in enhancing recovery, and practical tips for managing nutritional challenges faced by cancer patients.
This event is not just an opportunity to learn from a leading expert in the field but also a chance to connect with others who are navigating the cancer journey.
