Cancer Nutrition Awareness Initiative

Changing the Conversation Around Cancer Nutrition.

CNAI exists to make clinical nutrition a recognized, standard, and accessible part of cancer care — for every patient and every care team.

What CNAI Is

A mission-driven initiative built around three commitments.

E

Educate

Patients and families about the role nutrition plays in strength, recovery, and treatment tolerance — without jargon, without sales.

E

Equip

Physicians and care teams with practical, evidence-based resources for integrating nutritional support into oncology workflows.

E

Elevate

The conversation through community outreach, public-facing content, and partnerships that bring nutritional care into the standard of supportive oncology.

Why This Matters

Many cancer patients don't lose ground to cancer alone — they lose ground to the breakdown of the body during treatment.

Muscle loss, malnutrition, and treatment toxicity are some of the most consistently studied — and most under-addressed — challenges in cancer care. CNAI exists to close that gap: not with another supplement on a shelf, but with resources, conversation, and presence in the places where cancer care actually happens.

What We're Building

Practical work, organized around three audiences.

Patient & Family Education

Clear, compassionate content on nutrition during treatment.

Physician Resources

Practical clinical tools, evidence summaries, and discussion materials.

Community Outreach

Partnerships, awareness campaigns, and patient-facing programming.

How to Be Part of It

Whether you're navigating treatment, providing care, or building partnerships — there's a way in.

Patients & Families

Read, share, and bring nutrition into the conversation with your care team.
