How Curcumin Helps Improve Tolerance to Cancer Treatment?

During cancer treatment, the most common challenge patients face is “side effects are too heavy to endure”.
Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or targeted therapy, while targeting the tumor, often bring nausea, fatigue, nerve pain, inflammation, and immune suppression, leading to dose reduction, delays, or interruption of the course.
Curcumin, the main active ingredient of turmeric, has been widely studied in cancer supportive care in recent years,
and one of its most valued benefits is helping patients “have more strength to withstand treatment”, enhancing overall tolerance.

Why Do Tumor Patients Experience Obvious Muscle Loss?

Many cancer patients, during or after treatment, face one of the most overlooked yet most impactful issues: “muscle loss” (Sarcopenia or Cancer Cachexia-related muscle wasting).
This is not simply “getting thinner” or “lack of exercise” — it is a comprehensive attack by the tumor itself and the treatment process on muscle tissue, causing rapid decline in muscle mass and strength.
When muscle loss becomes obvious, patients not only lose physical strength and have difficulty walking, but it also affects treatment tolerance, wound healing, and overall quality of life, even increasing the risk of complications.

Cancer Patients’ Symptoms of Memory Fog and Brain Fog

Helping you understand “why your mind suddenly feels foggy” — and gentle ways to improve
Many cancer patients, during or after treatment, notice their mind feels “shrouded in fog”: forgetting what they were about to do, struggling to find words, or having difficulty concentrating.
This phenomenon is medically known as “chemo brain” (Chemo Brain) or “cancer-related cognitive impairment” (Cancer-Related Cognitive Impairment). It is one of the most frequently overlooked yet most impactful symptoms for cancer patients.
It is not simply “being tired” or “getting older” — it is the combined effect of treatment on the brain and nervous system, temporarily disrupting cognitive function.

Cancer Supportive Therapy Comprehensive Options

Making the treatment journey smoother and quality of life higher
During cancer treatment — chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy — while the focus is on targeting the tumour, side effects such as fatigue, toxicity, nerve damage, nutrient loss, and immune suppression often impact tolerance and daily living.
The goal of supportive therapy is to provide scientific, safe, and gentle assistance without interfering with primary treatment, helping patients have the strength to complete their course.
Below is a summary of the most commonly used and relatively safe supportive options in cancer care, all of which must be evaluated and prescribed by a specialist oncologist.

Why Do I Always Feel Like I Don’t Have Enough Energy During Chemotherapy?

Helping you maintain more strength to “get through” treatment
During cancer treatment, especially chemotherapy, one of the most common complaints from patients is “no matter how much I sleep, I never feel rested” and “I feel drained all day”.
This is not a matter of “mental weakness” or “not being strong enough” — it is a comprehensive impact of treatment on the body’s energy systems, causing mitochondrial dysfunction, elevated oxidative stress, persistent chronic inflammation, and temporary disruption of energy production mechanisms.
When energy is insufficient, treatment tolerance drops sharply, increasing the likelihood of dose reduction, delays, or inability to complete the full course.

Why Do Cancer Patients Experience Numbness or Tingling in Hands and Feet After Treatment?

Many cancer patients, after completing chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgery, suddenly notice “my hands and feet are starting to feel numb, like pins and needles, or things don’t feel right when I touch them” — sometimes so severe it keeps them awake at night.
This is not simply “getting older” or “nerves wearing out” — it is the gradual emergence of “hidden nerve damage” caused during treatment.
Medically known as “peripheral neuropathy”, it is commonly associated with certain chemotherapy drugs (such as paclitaxel, oxaliplatin, cisplatin, vincristine, etc.) or targeted therapies.

How to Help Your Body Truly Absorb Nutrition After Chemotherapy

From “Eating Without Benefit” to “Every Bite Supporting Recovery”
After chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgery, many people find themselves stuck in a frustrating and confusing cycle:
“I’m doing my best to eat—so why am I still losing weight?”
“Why does it feel like the food I eat isn’t really helping my body?”
This is not simply a matter of poor appetite or insufficient effort.
Cancer-related treatments can have long-lasting effects on the digestive system, metabolism, and gut function, making nutrient absorption far more difficult than before.
When these challenges are properly understood and nutritional support is adjusted with precision and care, each meal can become more meaningful—and the body’s recovery process can gradually regain momentum.

Why Are More and More Cancer Patients Discussing RGCC OncoTrace Testing?

After a cancer diagnosis, the one question that weighs most heavily on patients and families is always the same: “Will recurrence come sooner than expected?”
Traditional follow-up methods, while reliable, often leave people in a state of “passive waiting” anxiety:
Tumour markers (CEA, CA19-9, CA125, etc.) are prone to false positives due to inflammation or infection;
Imaging (CT, PET-CT) only detects tumours once they have grown to a certain size.
This means that early recurrence signals may already be present long before any confirmation is possible.

Common Challenges in Nutrient Absorption After Cancer Treatment

Understanding why “eating more doesn’t always mean absorbing more”—and discovering gentler ways forward

After completing cancer treatment, many patients notice something frustrating:
“I’m really trying to eat, yet my weight keeps dropping.”

This is not a matter of “not trying hard enough.” Rather, long-term effects of treatment on the digestive system and metabolism can make nutrient absorption unusually difficult.
Understanding these common challenges allows you and your care team to intervene earlier—so the nutrients you take in can truly be used by your body.
