Study Summary
Emerging data suggest consumption of dietary fiber before and during cancer treatment may improve prognosis for patients with head and neck cancer, in part via increased production of short chain fatty acids, systemic anti-inflammatory effects, and decreased risk of sarcopenia. Foods rich in dietary fiber are often low in calories and protein, thus are not typically targeted in current treatment paradigms that focus on countering the catabolic state associated with sarcopenia. This project entails an observational, mixed methods study to: observe dietary fiber intake in patients with head and neck cancer from time of diagnosis for six months; elucidate the relationship between dietary fiber intake, short chain fatty acids, inflammatory markers, and sarcopenia; and explore the feasibility of and patient perceptions regarding promoting dietary fiber as part of their treatment approaches.
