Reliable information about nutrition in childhood cancer

Parents of children with cancer often have questions about nutrition. That is why the Princess Máxima Center and the World Cancer Research Fund have launched a website with answers to frequently asked questions about nutrition in childhood cancer.

The website offers nutrition tips to help manage symptoms such as nausea, diarrhea, and reduced appetite. In addition, in collaboration with Hutten, several recipes are available to inspire children and parents.

The answers to the frequently asked questions are based on scientific research. After a literature review, the team writes an article on the relevant topic. These articles are regularly updated as soon as new knowledge or research becomes available. This ensures that children and parents can rely on the website as a trustworthy source of information about nutrition.

Parents and children can also submit their own questions or topics through the website.
