Nutritional
Counseling

Knowing that good nutrition can be your ally in preventing cancer, we develop and fine-tune a custom regimen for cancer patients, as they have special nutrition needs, and issues, related to eating. Your diet counselor will encourage the ingestion of fresh, in-season local produce, as our firm belief is grounded in the idea that behind good nutrition, is that food, when properly grown and prepared, can be supportive of health, and enhance quality of life. Though aware that there are endless approaches to dietary process, we apply special care to alleviate and unravel any confusion you might have in understanding conflicting dietary information.

At Contra Costa Oncology we help you understand how a properly customized diet affects your health, well being and the environmental impact it creates. We will not advise pre-packaged diet plans, but will strongly encourage that you avoid a diet of commercially packaged processed foods.
