We want to make sure people get the nutrition they need to get through the treatment and heal,\u201d she added, noting Nyce serves cancer patients as well as at-risk family members who want to know more about healthy eating and cancer prevention through diet. \u201cThe oncology dietitian meets all those needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Seeing the benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kemme said he knows his patients are benefiting from having a dietitian available.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur patients need help with their nutrition for different stages of their diagnosis and treatment,\u201d he said. \u201cAny kind of cancer can lead to problems eating \u2014 problems with chewing or swallowing or digesting certain foods. Some patients are struggling just getting enough calories in; they can\u2019t eat enough or keep their weight up. Both treatment and cancer itself can cause these issues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLiz can really figure this out; she knows cancer, she knows all the different effects it has. She can help them get their weight back on or keep from losing more weight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He admitted that often when patients are undergoing treatment, they just eat whatever they can because their appetites may shrink and their tastes change. \u201c[Nutrition needs] are different for that short part of your life that you\u2019re on treatment. For the rest of your life, you need to make sure you eat healthy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>An experienced team player<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As a board-certified specialist in oncology nutrition with six years of experience, Nyce has the expertise to teach patients how to do just that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI get many different referrals for all different cancer types,\u201d Nyce said. \u201cNutrition is different for each person and each kind of cancer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She noted she sees some of her patients only once. They want to know the best foods to eat to help their bodies respond positively to treatment, to manage their weight and to resist a recurrence of cancer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEating the right kind of foods, while monitoring portion sizes and paired with physical activity, promotes a healthy body weight. Obesity is linked with a number of different types of cancers,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s a big reason\u201d to find out how to eat to prevent cancer or a recurrence. \u201cSome patients may have gained weight with treatment, such as with prostate or breast cancer, and they\u2019re looking at how to combat it and make good lifestyle changes,\u201d Nyce said.<\/p>\n<p>The patients Nyce gets to know best are those at risk for malnutrition because of the severity or kind of cancer they have or the rigorous treatment they must undergo, such as Kemme\u2019s patients with gastrointestinal cancer or those with head and neck cancer, she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of times my patients and I talk about how we can increase the caloric density of the food in a healthy way,\u201d Nyce said. \u201cWe also discuss how to repair tissue and increase muscle mass through plant-based proteins and, for meat eaters, healthier animal protein choices.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lovins said Nyce has become an integral part of the team of doctors, nurses, physical therapists, social workers and other care providers within UCHealth\u2019s Cancer Care program in northern Colorado.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a value to the patient because they have only one site to go to,\u201d she said. \u201cThey may have different appointments but only one visit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nyce dedicates all of her time to serving as a certified oncology dietitian with UCHealth\u2019s Cancer Care program. She previously spent her time with Medical Nutrition Therapy at Poudre Valley Hospital. Now Nyce sees patients in Fort Collins Monday through Wednesday and Friday, and she visits Loveland patients on Thursday morning and the Greeley patients Thursday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>Nyce will also offer a lecture series on various aspects of diet and nutrition several times a year, with support from the PVH and MCR Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are many ways we can help cancer patients and families navigate through their journey,\u201d Lovins said. \u201cFood and nutrition doesn\u2019t have to be an awful experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe right diet can improve the quality of life for our patients as they go through treatment,\u201d Nyce added. \u201cIt is just another way we can help improve lives.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eating isn\u2019t just a matter of survival or enjoyment; it can also serve as a weapon in the fight to live.
