How to Avoid One of the Top 7 Chemotherapy-Related Problems

Recently, Andrea Goorah Sieminski wrote a very informative article in the Huffington Post, titled “7 Things to Know While You’re Undergoing Chemotherapy.” What was the first item of advice listed? Avoid eating any of your favorite foods while on chemotherapy. This is because chemotherapy treatments often cause dysgeusia, or a persistent, abnormal change in taste. This often results in what is referred to as “metal mouth” in which everything a chemotherapy patients eats tastes like metal. As Goorah Sieminski and countless patients report, the dysgeusia causes an aversion to favorite flavors, which can continue long after chemotherapy treatments end.
