Maintain adequate hydration and nutrition: Aim for at least 1.52 litres of water daily, adjusting for activity level and climate (follow your healthcare professional's advice if you have been told to restrict fluids due to heart, kidney or liver disease) Ensure regular, balanced meals even if appetite is reduced Focus on nutrient-dense foods including lean proteins, whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats Consider smaller, more frequent meals if nausea limits food intake Avoid excessive restriction of carbohydrates, as the brain requires glucose for optimal function Monitor blood glucose levels if you have been advised to do so by your healthcare team
