Summary

This study looked at 116 cancer patients to see how their eating habits changed during treatment, especially their ability to stick with the Mediterranean diet. Researchers measured taste and smell changes caused by chemotherapy and linked them to diet quality. The goal is to understand why some patients struggle to eat well, so future foods can be designed to help them stay nourished.
