Join us as we speak to Michelle Bratton, a registered dietitian and certified oncology nutritionist with LLS’s PearlPoint Nutrition Services®. In this episode, Michelle shares the benefits of nutrition throughout treatment and survivorship. Rather than cutting out foods, she changes the narrative for cancer patients by encouraging them to nourish their bodies. She also shares how a patient – or caregiver – with any cancer diagnosis, can take advantage of a free nutrition consultation to further guide them through their cancer experience.
