The challenges facing cancer patients are many, bu

The challenges facing cancer patients are many, but often unseen. Ascent on Cancer will be honoring Cancer Heroes by making their bravery visible during an 11,000 foot ascent of Mt. San Jacinto, the steepest escarpment in the continental United States. As we climb the mountain we will be stopping to read out the names of your Cancer Heroes in order to acknowledge the invisible challenges they have faced.

Ascent on Cancer is a fundraiser for North Bay Cancer Alliance (NBCA) in Northern California. NBCA has been providing meaningful resources to cancer patients for sixteen years by sponsoring innovative support groups and providing immediate financial assistance to those in need. This year we see an increasing number of cancer patients and their families struggling to afford basic expenses.

With all the challenges around us, don't forget to keep up with your normal health screenings. For more information on uterine cancer, visit the CDC website.

North Bay Cancer Alliance (NBCA) announces Ascent

North Bay Cancer Alliance (NBCA) announces Ascent on Cancer, the first in a series of extreme hikes undertaken with two goals in mind. The first goal is to raise critical funds for North Bay cancer patients and their families who are living on the margin of health and income. The second is to provide donors the opportunity to submit the names of Cancer Heroes in their lives who will be taken symbolically up the mountain.

“Cancer can be a herculean disease to manage and afford. This particular hike will be very challenging physically, yet it’s nothing compared to the daily struggles of a family confronted with cancer,” stated NBCA Executive Director Kent Corley. “The mountain represents the cancer experience. We want to get to the top, and we want to put all those Cancer Heroes on our backs and take them up with us and honor their fight, their survival, their memory.” Visit the link in our bio to learn more.

Good Nutrition is Important for Cancer Patients

Good Nutrition is Important for Cancer Patients

Nutrition is a process in which food is taken in and used by the body for growth, to keep the body healthy, and to replace tissue. Good nutrition is important for good health. Eating the right kinds of foods before, during, and after cancer treatment can help the patient feel better and stay stronger. A healthy diet includes eating and drinking enough of the foods and liquids that have the important nutrients (vitamins, minerals, protein, carbohydrates, fat, and water) the body needs.

When the body does not get or cannot absorb the nutrients needed for health, it causes a condition called malnutrition or malnourishment. This summary is about nutrition in adults with cancer.
