"Stomach cancer completely changes how we eat. Difficulty swallowing, nausea, dumping syndrome and general pain can take the joy out of eating. Weight loss and loss of appetite are common problems that people with stomach cancer experience. While it can be a challenge to cook meals that are nutritious, digestible and tasty, it is possible to enjoy food with stomach cancer." - Page 3
