For the AML World Awareness Day, Know AML was pleased to speak with Katie Walker, King's College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, London, UK. We asked, In your clinic, what foods do you recommend patients with acute myeloid leukemia should eat or avoid post transplant?
She begins by prefacing the goals of her food recommendations, to help patients regain or stabilize their weight after a bone marrow transplant and gain strength. Walker outlines the different food groups, and highlights the importance of increased protein and its various sources. Finally, she discusses foods to omit such as unpasteurized dairy for those with a low neutrophil count.
