Dr. Ghosh:
Being tired is the most common complaint of cancer and treatment. The reasons for fatigue can include the cancer itself, stress, diarrhea, infections, radiation and anemia. Fatigue can make meal preparation exhausting, and when you're finished with preparation, you may not even feel like eating.
Make it easy on yourself during the times when you are most fatigued by taking a break from cooking. For easy meals and snacks, keep plenty of timesaving foods on hand.
Here are some tips to overcome fatigue:
Prepare simple meals or snacks, and use timesaving convenience foods whenever possible
Take iron or vitamin supplements
Nap during the day and get quality sleep at night
Invigorate yourself by going for a walk or a swim
These Foods require little or no food preparation and are recommended during times of greatest fatigue:
Fresh fruits and vegetables
Potatoes, especially refrigerated and mixes
Eggs
Canned fruits, vegetables, soups, tuna, legumes, chili and beans
Cereals and grains (bread, bagels, pasta, rice, oatmeal)
Snacks (chips, crackers, popcorn, pretzels)
Bakery items (muffins, pastries, cookies)
Dairy foods (cheese, yogurt, milk)
Beverages (fruit juices, cider, milk, sports drinks, nutritional beverages, lemonade, herbal teas, bottled water)
