WELLSPRING NOURISH PROGRAMS
Nourish is an evidence-based program that dispels nutritional myths, provides the latest recommendations on cancer-related eating, and offers helpful tips for selecting and preparing foods that patients will feel better eating while undergoing treatment or living with a longer-term cancer prognosis.
NUTRITION AND PROSTATE CANCER
This single educational session is geared towards the nutritional needs of men diagnosed with prostate cancer.
Wellspring is again offering this program at the end of May. It is open to all and I will distribute it to other PCS groups as well.
We need all the reminders we can get about healthy eating so, even if you saw it last time around, I’d recommend you take an hour to do it again.
It is easy to register for this program at https://portal.wellspring.ca/serviceschedule/a1bON000001wNjd/nutrition-and-prostate-cancer-may-2024
Another good reason for participating this time around is the introduction to Nourish:RxFood. Details will be shared during the Nutrition and Prostate Cancer session.
The whole idea of this can be described as “Changing Information (from the Nourish presentation) to Action (by following the RXFood program)”
https://portal.wellspring.ca/service/a1dON000001LP2r/nourish-rxfood-app
This is a new pilot program offered by Wellspring Cancer Support to Prostate and Breast Cancer patients who have completed active treatment. (Note: prostate men on Active Surveillance will also qualify). In the Nourish: RxFood program, you will receive access to the RxFood tracking app, where you will take photos of your food choices for at least three days per month, over a six-month period.
You will also meet with a Wellspring dietitian in a small group of 4-6 people, once a month for six months. In this group, the dietitian will go over dietary patterns from data collected by the app, and set healthy eating goals based on the Wellspring Nourish programs.
