Nutrition and Cancer: Everybody's Business

This DVD has been developed by the Rarer Cancers Forum. It is hoped the DVD will increase the level of knowledge about nutrition and cancer amongst health professionals who often feel that this subject is not their business. The DVD stresses the importance of good nutrition in surviving the cancer journey and in regaining health after treatment.

Rarer Cancers Forum is grateful to Cancerbackup and Macmillan Cancer Support for their contributions.  The DVD was funded by an educational grant from Abbott Nutrition and by members of the Rarer Cancers Forum.

You can obtain a free copy of the DVD from your local Abbott Nutrition representative, or via the Abbott Nutrition website
