Description

Food and diet care for children who survive cancer is reviewed by Feit and co-authors in a paper dated 2023 in its text head. More than eighty-five in a hundred child patients now live long term. Yet treatment leaves many with lasting health burdens, and survivors often eat poorly.

The review sums up what is known about diet and nutrition status in this group. It links poor intake to common late harms such as heart and bone problems. It also covers current programs that try to change eating habits, and the blocks that stand in their way. Blocks span the child, the clinic, and the wider system. The authors chart steps to make diet care a standard part of survivor follow-up.
