Summary
This study looks at how cancer and its treatments change a person's sense of taste and smell, and how that affects their eating habits and nutrition. Researchers will follow 306 people newly diagnosed with mouth, throat, colon, or liver cancer to understand these links. The goal is to find better ways to prevent and detect undernutrition early, which is a major cause of death in cancer patients.
