These symptoms lead to lower food intake and may appear at any time throughout the cancer process. It is important to pay special attention if they last over time, because they can affect the patient\u2019s nutritional status.<br \/>\n            Having proper nutritional status is important in order to cope with the treatments. The following dietary recommendations should be adjusted depending on whether the loss of appetite is accompanied by other symptoms, such as acid reflux, nausea, etc.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row p-40 w-60\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12 text-center\">\n<h2 class=\"h3 recomanem-efectes-cancer\">WHAT DO WE RECOMMEND?<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-12 p-10 text-center\">\n<h3><a class=\"btn-orange recomanacions-tipus-cancer\" role=\"button\" href=\"#collapseExample-1\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"collapseExample\">Eat when you feel most like eating. <i class=\"fa fa-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/h3>\n<div id=\"collapseExample-1\" class=\"collapse\">\n<div class=\"card-body\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12 descrip\">\n<p>Take advantage of the time of the day when your appetite is the strongest to include the most nutritious foods.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-12 p-10 text-center\">\n<h3><a class=\"btn-orange recomanacions-tipus-cancer\" role=\"button\" href=\"#collapseExample-2\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"collapseExample\">Ensure that main meals are complete. <i class=\"fa fa-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/h3>\n<div id=\"collapseExample-2\" class=\"collapse\">\n<div class=\"card-body\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12 descrip\">\n<p>Always ensure that lunch and dinner include vegetables (raw or cooked, depending on tolerance), starchy (tubers, grains and legumes, depending on tolerance) and high-protein foods (meat, fish and eggs or other protein-rich foods, such as soybeans and soy by-products like tofu, if well tolerated), as indicated in the plate method. <br \/>This method allows small amounts to be eaten using a dessert dish, as shown in the following recipe, but it also allows different meals to be made, such as combo plates, complete dishes, a starter with a main course, a first and a second course and even sandwiches or little plates.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-12 p-10 text-center\">\n<h3><a class=\"btn-orange recomanacions-tipus-cancer\" role=\"button\" href=\"#collapseExample-3\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"collapseExample\">Make dishes with a high nutritional density. <i class=\"fa fa-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/h3>\n<div id=\"collapseExample-3\" class=\"collapse\">\n<div class=\"card-body\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12 descrip\">\n<p>They offer a large amount of calories and nutrients within a small volume of food.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prepared chicken or cod croquettes or frozen empanadas (meat, tuna, egg, cheese, etc.) can be fried or reheated on the spot.
