Cancer is caused by the multiplication in abnormal cells due to gene mutations. It can affect any tissue and any organ of the body. It is a generic name for wide group of diseases.

How UD works:

Unfortunately, if you have been afflicted with this fatal disease, start a thorough diet before treartment. A nourished body is able to cope up with stress of the treatment/surgery in a better way. It provides you strength for the further journey..

You may feel loss of appetite during treatment and sometimes you find yourself extremely hungry. This can leave you confused. We take utmost care of our patients who have chosen dietary intervention for cancer treatment.

At UD, we provide you the diets that prepare you for the treatment, surgical procedures and radiation therapy and help you in post operative and post therapy recovery.

If you are under Chemotherapy or radiation therapy, you experience nausea and vomiting and oral problems and may not be able to eat much. A cancer patient always lives in the fear of the disease coming back again after treatment. It can be avoided to great extent if you are particular about your diets. At UD, we help our patients to make permanent dietary and lifestyle changes that are sustainable for the further prevention of the disease.
