What to eat in preparation for chemotherapy? should you focus on lots of vegetables so you will be very strong for it?

Protein, protein: You need to keep up your weight, if possible, when going through chemotherapy. Depending on the type of meds used you may be too nauseous to eat enough calories. Ensure is palatable and supplies lots of calories. Vegetables don't have much protein - but certain ones do - beans are particularly good.
