Pathways to Prevention Workshop: Nutrition as Prevention for Improved Cancer Health Outcomes (Day 1)

Air date: Tuesday, July 26, 2022, 12:00:00 PM
Time displayed is Eastern Time, Washington DC Local
Description: As many as 80% of people with cancer experience malnutrition, but nutritional screening and interventions aren't standard parts of outpatient cancer care in the United States. More research is needed to inform development of guidelines and services for the prevention and treatment of cancer-associated malnutrition. Workshop speakers will discuss the current scientific evidence on how nutritional interventions affect cancer health outcomes. After the workshop, an independent panel will draft a report on evidence gaps and identify priorities for future research.
