The immune system is the body’s own defence mechanism against attack from illness and disease.  Many people diagnosed with cancer feel a conflict about accepting treatments that not only attack the cancer but also undermine their immune system.  Intuitively they feel a fully functioning immune system is central to their battle with cancer and to the restoration of their overall health. 

People with weakened immune systems are more susceptible to infection.  They catch colds and flu more easily, and take longer to recover.  A properly functioning immune system will not only stay alert to identify and destroy substances that contain antigens but will refrain from attacking the “normal” antigens. 

Each participant will be guided in their selection of food during meal times, optimising nutrition for their specific condition and needs.  This course would also be beneficial to the carers and supporters of those who have, or are recovering from cancer.
