What do you feed someone who is on chemotherapy?

[:::a::::]

He has cuts and soars in his mouth and it hurts to eat. What should i feed him

[Who Are You?]

Really? My husband never had that problem. Try soft foods like pudding, yogurt, jello, ice cream.

Soft, bland food. There is a mouth wash and toothpaste for people with dry mouth called Biotene. I used that. It helped some. He could also talk with the dentist about a prescription rinse for people who have trouble brushing (perhaps because of chemo). That might help. Tell the doctor about it. No acid foods. The chemo makes food taste and smell funny too. So just go with what he is willing to eat.

Lots of water, and liquids. Try weak chicken noodle soup.

People can pretty much anything, as long as they can keep it down.
