Nutrition Therapy

What is Nutrition Therapy?

Nutrition Therapy is the “development, education, and oversight of a custom, results-driven, and sustainable diet and lifestyle program.” We believe Nutrition Therapy is important to all individuals, but vital to a patient trying to overcome cancer. Individual protocols need to be created through a detailed assessment of past and current eating habits, lab work, medical history, physician recommendations, lifestyle, and other factors. It is important for a patient to understand how food can work to help the body heal.

Believe Big connects patients to an oncology nutritionist to determine the best protocol (including Ketogenic and Plant Based Diets, Intermittent Fasting, Treatment Support, and Detox). There is misinformation circulating about nutrition and things are always changing; this makes it extremely important to have an expert in the oncology field who can present you with the most up-to-date, evidence-based information.

Please email us or call us at 888-317-5850 and we will connect you with someone that can help you. In the interim, please review the information on this page to help you get started on your path to better health.
