Taste Solutions: Navigating Metallic Taste
Chemotherapy drugs can cause a variety of side effects, including changes in taste and smell. One common side effect is a metallic taste in the mouth, which can make food and drink taste unpleasant. The exact mechanism by which chemotherapy drugs cause this metallic taste is not fully understood, but there are a few theories.
Taste With Your Eyes
Good food presentation is more than just an aesthetic addition to a meal; it can be a critical factor in stimulating appetite and enhancing the overall dining experience. The way a dish is presented can impact how it is perceived, its level of desirability, and ultimately, how much we enjoy it.

About Centre For Cancer Nutrition
Have you ever found yourself in a state of sickness so severe that you couldn't bring yourself to eat? For Alyx Stewart, the founder of Centre For Cancer Nutrition, this was the unfortunate reality she faced upon being diagnosed with breast cancer and undergoing chemotherapy. The side-effects were so debilitating that she lost over 10 kilograms in just a couple of weeks.
Sadly, Alyx's story is all too common for those who are battling cancer. Often times, individuals lose their appetite due to nausea, mouth sores, or pain while eating. Loss of taste and flavour is another common and devastating side-effect that can impact a patient's appetite during treatment. This can have devastating effects on the body, causing it to become malnourished and lack the essential nutrients required for proper healing.
It was this realisation that inspired Alyx to create Centre For Cancer Nutrition, offering education and resources to individuals who have been diagnosed with cancer and other illnesses that impact their ability to eat normally.
At Centre For Cancer Nutrition, we recognise the complex challenges faced by those undergoing treatment. Our aim is to help you find pleasure in eating again, even amidst the difficult side-effects of your treatment. Let us be a source of support and guidance as you navigate the challenges that lie ahead.
