Nutrition plays a powerful role in supporting children through cancer treatment, but it’s not always easy for caregivers to know what’s best, especially when there are taste changes, appetite shifts, and treatment side effects.

In this episode, we sit down with Michell Fullmer, a registered dietitian at Nemours Children’s Hospital, to share practical insights that simplify nutrition during cancer care, reduce mealtime stress, and empower caregivers to make choices that help their child feel better every day. Join us for myth-busting, actionable tips, and reassurance from an expert who has guided countless families through this important part of care.
