smoothie workshop

WEBVTT

1
00:00:04.080 –> 00:00:09.800
You’re listening to the Cornwall Cancer Cafe podcast. With me, Matthew. And me, Emma. Thanks

2
00:00:09.800 –> 00:00:15.860
to the National Lottery Community Fund for supporting this podcast. And we’ve got a slightly

3
00:00:15.860 –> 00:00:22.080
different one this week, haven’t we? We are recording this back at the Cove at the Royal

4
00:00:22.080 –> 00:00:28.220
Cornwall Hospital in Truro and one of our favourite places in the world. Yeah, they’ve

5
00:00:28.220 –> 00:00:32.800
been great, haven’t they? But wouldn’t we rather have never found it? I know, but as we

6
00:00:32.800 –> 00:00:41.220
have found it. They’re amazing. What a great team. Now, we are set up in the big room upstairs

7
00:00:41.220 –> 00:00:50.260
from the cafe because today we are filming a film to go on the website and it’s going

8
00:00:50.260 –> 00:00:59.020
to be about making smoothies. So we are getting Anna Brigo, the dietitian from the

9
00:00:59.020 –> 00:01:05.620
Cove, involved in it. And you’ve met her, I’ve met her before and everyone who’s listened to this

10
00:01:05.620 –> 00:01:11.920
hopefully will have heard her podcast. It’s interesting knowing about food and all the

11
00:01:11.920 –> 00:01:16.740
things that can help you through a cancer journey, isn’t it? It is. And if you listen

12
00:01:16.740 –> 00:01:22.660
to the podcast we did with Anna recently, you’ll hear all of her advice. And when I

13
00:01:22.660 –> 00:01:27.900
listened back to it, I was absolutely blown away by the depth of her knowledge, how much

14
00:01:27.900 –> 00:01:32.880
she knew, how much advice she gave and the way she delivered it as well. What a lovely lady.

15
00:01:33.580 –> 00:01:39.940
And I have actually put into place some of her advice as well. Have you? I have. What have you

16
00:01:39.940 –> 00:01:46.220
done? Well, she advised me one of the few things that was missing from my diet that she

17
00:01:46.220 –> 00:01:54.600
said I could improve was to get Brazil nuts and have two Brazil nuts a day with my breakfast.

18
00:01:55.100 –> 00:02:01.380
Okay. Are these ones with chocolate on them? No, no chocolate. Come on. This is healthy stuff.

19
00:02:03.500 –> 00:02:08.720
She did say you can have things, you know, like in moderation. That’s true. But there’s

20
00:02:08.720 –> 00:02:14.460
no chocolate on these Brazil nuts. This is, I think, for the selenium in the Brazil nuts.

21
00:02:14.500 –> 00:02:17.700
Did you know they had selenium in them? I didn’t. I don’t even know what that is,

22
00:02:17.820 –> 00:02:22.820
but yes, she knows. Yeah, perhaps we’ll ask her at some point. So are you having these

23
00:02:22.820 –> 00:02:28.960
Brazil nuts whole or chopped up? Whole and just, I have them as a lovely snack. Now,

24
00:02:29.200 –> 00:02:33.000
our other guest, our other guest today. I think we’ve gone a bit off topic here, haven’t we?

25
00:02:33.180 –> 00:02:39.760
Our other guest is laughing his head off here. And we’ve spoken to him before. It’s Rob Stott

26
00:02:39.760 –> 00:02:44.360
and you took part in a podcast and we were sitting in a park in Redruth when recording it.

27
00:02:44.560 –> 00:02:48.220
Yeah, that’s right. I’ve got the t-shirt. So yeah, kind of thought I’d come and help out.

28
00:02:48.460 –> 00:02:52.100
Are you eating Brazil nuts as well? No, I’m worried now whether I should be eating

29
00:02:52.100 –> 00:02:55.940
Brazil nuts. They would have chocolate on them. They definitely have chocolate on.

30
00:02:56.600 –> 00:03:01.520
Yeah. Now, the thing is, the thing is, is that the reason why I’ve got Rob on this video,

31
00:03:01.620 –> 00:03:07.200
because it’s about smoothies. And I thought Rob is such a smooth customer, isn’t he?

32
00:03:07.400 –> 00:03:13.440
Smooth head. If you haven’t seen the photo, he has got a smooth head.

33
00:03:13.720 –> 00:03:16.740
Yeah. That fell out not because of chemo. So yeah.

34
00:03:18.320 –> 00:03:21.440
Now, do you think I should apologise to Rob now?

35
00:03:21.500 –> 00:03:24.240
Yes. Sorry, Rob, for…

36
00:03:24.240 –> 00:03:28.680
But you are. Was it okay to call you a smooth guy?

37
00:03:28.980 –> 00:03:31.840
Yeah, I don’t mind that. I’ve been called worse.

38
00:03:32.040 –> 00:03:34.840
I was going to say, yeah, you could be called worse, couldn’t you?

39
00:03:35.640 –> 00:03:41.280
Okay. So, right. We are going to get into the smoothie production

40
00:03:41.980 –> 00:03:45.900
with Anna. Let’s see what goes on.

41
00:03:49.620 –> 00:03:53.340
Here to support you, the Cornwall Cancer Cafe podcast.

42
00:03:53.620 –> 00:03:57.800
Share this podcast on your social media so others may benefit.

43
00:03:58.100 –> 00:04:03.620
So part of today is to talk about how nutrition can help in the recovery from a cancer

44
00:04:03.620 –> 00:04:08.120
journey and also to help us along when we’re on our cancer journey,

45
00:04:08.480 –> 00:04:14.740
eating the right things, but also acknowledging that sometimes along that cancer journey,

46
00:04:14.740 –> 00:04:19.540
people’s tastes change. So sometimes we need stronger tastes.

47
00:04:20.540 –> 00:04:26.100
So do you want to go ahead and introduce us to maybe your favourite smoothie and talk

48
00:04:26.100 –> 00:04:29.060
through why it is? Yeah, 100%.

49
00:04:29.060 –> 00:04:35.120
So recipes can be definitely individualised and personalised based on every person’s

50
00:04:36.060 –> 00:04:39.900
taste preference and as you said, taste changes. And again, also depending on what

51
00:04:39.900 –> 00:04:46.020
the goal is. It can be, like you said, really useful for people preparing for

52
00:04:46.020 –> 00:04:50.180
going through treatment, especially if their appetite is not the best as a cancer side

53
00:04:50.180 –> 00:04:54.360
effect potentially. They can be really useful when they are going through treatment,

54
00:04:54.480 –> 00:04:58.480
especially if they can manage to eat much. It’s an easy way.

55
00:04:58.580 –> 00:05:03.800
It’s much easier to blend food and swallow a drink rather than chopping,

56
00:05:04.060 –> 00:05:08.500
preparing a meal and then having to eat it too. A lot of people are overwhelmed

57
00:05:08.500 –> 00:05:14.600
by a big meal. So my favourite one would have to be a banana and peanut butter

58
00:05:15.260 –> 00:05:19.400
smoothie. I do like that quite a lot. And I would say it’s probably best.

59
00:05:19.480 –> 00:05:22.480
It’s quite calorie dense. You can pack a lot of nutrition in there.

60
00:05:22.660 –> 00:05:26.460
It’s probably best for people that are currently struggling with their appetite.

61
00:05:26.540 –> 00:05:30.960
Thank you. And needing a little bit more of an extra nutrition boost

62
00:05:30.960 –> 00:05:35.460
or, you know, to prevent some weight loss, help to gain them a little bit of weight.

63
00:05:36.460 –> 00:05:40.960
Okay. Well, Rob was saying earlier that following your treatment,

64
00:05:41.560 –> 00:05:45.400
you had a lot of weight loss, didn’t you? Yeah. I dropped down to, I had nine weeks

65
00:05:45.400 –> 00:05:51.820
of BEP chemo. So I did three weekly sessions. So that’s nine weeks in total.

66
00:05:52.460 –> 00:05:56.560
And I dropped down to just over six stone. So I’m now 11 stone.

67
00:05:57.500 –> 00:06:04.480
So, but it was very interesting about, you don’t want to chew. You start off

68
00:06:04.480 –> 00:06:08.660
relatively okay in the first few weeks, but then you don’t want to chew because

69
00:06:08.660 –> 00:06:14.980
your mouth is sore. You’ve got ulcers. Your gums are receding and you don’t want

70
00:06:14.980 –> 00:06:19.340
to chew. And, and obviously it’s trying to keep this stuff down.

71
00:06:19.360 –> 00:06:23.120
Is there anything here that, or you could think of that would actually keep

72
00:06:23.120 –> 00:06:26.220
food in us? Because I think that’s why we lost so much weight is because

73
00:06:26.220 –> 00:06:31.460
we either didn’t want to eat. So we didn’t eat or we couldn’t keep the

74
00:06:31.460 –> 00:06:35.780
food in long enough. Is there something that we can eat that would stop it coming?

75
00:06:35.920 –> 00:06:39.200
And are you talking specifically about like nausea, feeling sick?

76
00:06:39.240 –> 00:06:43.600
Yeah. And being sick. I mean, even if you manage to get the food in you,

77
00:06:44.300 –> 00:06:47.000
it’s keeping it in you. That was the difficult thing.

78
00:06:47.060 –> 00:06:50.820
There’s no, yeah, I was going to say, I’m guessing what we’re about to do now being

79
00:06:50.820 –> 00:06:55.380
high in calories, even if you don’t manage to keep it down for long.

80
00:06:55.560 –> 00:06:59.420
So those calories will be absorbed. Yeah. Yeah, for sure. You know, like the

81
00:06:59.420 –> 00:07:02.980
nutrition, you’re packing to something, you know, and hopefully you can manage to

82
00:07:02.980 –> 00:07:06.180
actually get it through the more you absorb as well.

83
00:07:08.520 –> 00:07:12.120
So it’s very difficult. There’s no food that, you know, it’s going to be better

84
00:07:12.120 –> 00:07:15.980
to keep down. It’s very individual based on what your treatment is, what your cancer is as

85
00:07:15.980 –> 00:07:20.200
well. Sometimes medications are needed, you know, what we call antiemetics. So then I

86
00:07:20.200 –> 00:07:23.360
would always recommend you to speak with your doctor or your oncologist or your GP.

87
00:07:24.620 –> 00:07:29.320
But food can help because sometimes going long periods of time without eating can actually

88
00:07:29.320 –> 00:07:33.520
make you more nauseous. You know, so like a smoothie perhaps in between a couple of

89
00:07:33.520 –> 00:07:37.880
meals if you don’t want to have another big meals in between can help with that

90
00:07:37.880 –> 00:07:42.400
and potentially reduce the nausea. Could we, sorry to interrupt, could we

91
00:07:42.400 –> 00:07:45.280
freeze these smoothies? You can definitely make it into

92
00:07:45.280 –> 00:07:49.580
ice lollies if you got like an ice lolly mold at home, you know, you can freeze

93
00:07:49.580 –> 00:07:55.660
anything really. And you mentioned sore mouth, like ulcers and things like that.

94
00:07:55.660 –> 00:07:59.640
If you’re making a smoothie with frozen food, frozen fruit, like frozen berries,

95
00:07:59.660 –> 00:08:03.880
for example, and it’s quite a cold drink, it can be quite soothing, you know, for

96
00:08:03.880 –> 00:08:07.560
people that have a sore mouth. I would always be drinking water with

97
00:08:07.560 –> 00:08:11.380
ice. It was lovely when we were here in Lohen, we had a big ice machine.

98
00:08:12.240 –> 00:08:15.760
And it was just constant ice. But that doesn’t provide you a lot

99
00:08:15.760 –> 00:08:18.900
of nutrition, which is crucial when you’re going through treatment, you know.

100
00:08:19.320 –> 00:08:23.380
So if you can have something cold that suits your mouth, but also with some

101
00:08:23.380 –> 00:08:27.720
calories and some protein in there, some antioxidant vitamins, minerals, then

102
00:08:27.720 –> 00:08:30.300
much better. So we’re going to hit the bananas.

103
00:08:31.720 –> 00:08:34.179
Peanut butter? Yes, yeah, I’ve got some recipes here

104
00:08:34.179 –> 00:08:40.299
that I like to follow sometimes. So for the peanut butter, and again,

105
00:08:40.559 –> 00:08:44.140
quantity wise, I would say measure with your heart, you know, depending on how

106
00:08:44.140 –> 00:08:47.440
thick. Measure with your heart, I love that. Can we keep doing this?

107
00:08:48.280 –> 00:08:54.600
Based on how thick you like it or thin, and also what flavour you prefer in it.

108
00:08:54.600 –> 00:08:57.600
So I do like peanut butter quite a lot. So that’s what I would do.

109
00:08:57.760 –> 00:09:00.100
So peanut butter, some banana, some cacao powder.

110
00:09:00.300 –> 00:09:03.220
I think peanut butter and chocolate is a really good combination.

111
00:09:04.900 –> 00:09:08.960
See, we mentioned chocolate earlier, didn’t we, when we were talking about

112
00:09:08.960 –> 00:09:13.740
Brazil nuts and chocolate. So you don’t have to not have

113
00:09:13.740 –> 00:09:17.260
chocolate, do you? I know when we talked in our previous podcast,

114
00:09:17.820 –> 00:09:19.840
there’s balance, isn’t there? Yeah, 100%.

115
00:09:20.600 –> 00:09:24.920
A lot of people come to see me for a dietetic appointment here at the Cove,

116
00:09:24.960 –> 00:09:28.260
and they think I’m going to tell them you have to eat 100% healthy,

117
00:09:28.480 –> 00:09:31.160
only fruit, vegetable, lean protein all the time.

118
00:09:31.560 –> 00:09:36.640
So it’s not always like that. The advice needs to be personalised

119
00:09:36.640 –> 00:09:39.380
to each patient. If someone has got a low BMI,

120
00:09:39.700 –> 00:09:42.400
losing weight, poor appetite, not managing to eat anything,

121
00:09:42.400 –> 00:09:44.660
it doesn’t matter too much where the calories are coming from,

122
00:09:44.820 –> 00:09:49.480
as long as they’re getting calories in to be fit enough to tolerate the treatment.

123
00:09:49.860 –> 00:09:53.400
And then obviously, as we go on, then we can think about adding more

124
00:09:54.000 –> 00:09:56.140
healthy foods in it as well, and overall health.

125
00:09:56.380 –> 00:10:00.360
But when someone is malnourished, what we focus on is getting enough nutrition in.

126
00:10:01.520 –> 00:10:05.040
So yeah, chocolate is fine to do it. Also, because I wouldn’t expect anyone

127
00:10:05.040 –> 00:10:09.000
to just eat chocolate. They will have other things in their diet as well.

128
00:10:09.000 –> 00:10:12.560
I feel better now having a pint glass of tea with…

129
00:10:12.560 –> 00:10:15.720
This is part of my weight gaining regime, because I did say,

130
00:10:16.060 –> 00:10:19.900
what should I eat afterwards? I mean, everything tasted like a rusty nail anyway.

131
00:10:21.060 –> 00:10:24.060
So it was like… I was going to say, if you’ve ever been

132
00:10:24.060 –> 00:10:27.480
punched in the face and you taste the blood, because that’s what…

133
00:10:27.480 –> 00:10:27.860
Metallic.

134
00:10:27.860 –> 00:10:31.620
Yeah, very metallic, very weird. And that was one of my biggest fears.

135
00:10:31.640 –> 00:10:35.140
I could cope with everything else, but whether or not it would come back

136
00:10:35.140 –> 00:10:38.480
and I started to taste food again, that was one of my biggest fears, and it did.

137
00:10:39.080 –> 00:10:41.400
And I feel better now, because I used to down…

138
00:10:41.400 –> 00:10:48.740
I had a pint glass of tea with evaporated milk instead of milk,

139
00:10:48.980 –> 00:10:51.980
cut the sugars, and then I would down a whole pack of custard creams

140
00:10:51.980 –> 00:10:55.420
that we were buying from Booker’s. And I just sort of thought of that.

141
00:10:55.580 –> 00:10:56.360
I’m sure that helps with weight gain.

142
00:10:56.460 –> 00:10:59.120
Well, yeah, exactly. I didn’t know whether that was the healthiest thing,

143
00:10:59.140 –> 00:11:03.540
but I used to go to Booker’s and buy custard creams, and it would be

144
00:11:03.540 –> 00:11:06.840
a whole packet of custard creams three or four times a day,

145
00:11:06.840 –> 00:11:11.560
a litre of Tropicana juice, and 12 Weetabix.

146
00:11:12.480 –> 00:11:13.300
Are you still doing that?

147
00:11:13.880 –> 00:11:17.740
No. Do you know what it’s really funny you say about whether you’re

148
00:11:17.740 –> 00:11:22.620
going to pester people to be healthy? I do know people who afterwards

149
00:11:22.620 –> 00:11:26.980
went to the extreme of organic and everything was healthy and fresh,

150
00:11:27.520 –> 00:11:32.200
and I went kind of the opposite, was just still, if I like…

151
00:11:32.200 –> 00:11:35.060
I want to eat food, I can taste it now, I’m going to eat it,

152
00:11:35.060 –> 00:11:40.100
and I’m still like that. I will eat a lot of butter, a lot of cakes,

153
00:11:40.260 –> 00:11:45.100
buns, pastries, all these things I still eat. Not a lot of sweets.

154
00:11:45.320 –> 00:11:49.240
I’m not one of these people that binge on chocolate, but

155
00:11:50.060 –> 00:11:55.620
I do eat quite high carbs, and just because it’s enjoyable.

156
00:11:56.400 –> 00:11:59.420
So let me make it clear. As a dietitian, we would always

157
00:11:59.420 –> 00:12:04.320
promote a healthy eating pattern. We want you to meet your five

158
00:12:04.320 –> 00:12:07.800
a day of fruit and vegetables, ideally whole grain carbohydrates,

159
00:12:08.220 –> 00:12:12.960
try to be careful about processed meat, very fatty meats, red meat,

160
00:12:13.500 –> 00:12:17.760
try to limit that as well, not to go too high in saturated fat like butter.

161
00:12:17.940 –> 00:12:20.840
So that is the standard healthy eating advice, right?

162
00:12:20.960 –> 00:12:24.440
So if someone was doing well, is not malnourished, they just need

163
00:12:25.300 –> 00:12:27.920
advice on the healthy eating guidelines, the Eat Well Guide,

164
00:12:27.940 –> 00:12:32.320
and that’s what we recommend. It really depends what point of

165
00:12:32.320 –> 00:12:35.260
cancer journey you are. I know you don’t like me to say journey.

166
00:12:35.600 –> 00:12:40.820
No, no, it’s absolutely fine because everybody in this room, even you,

167
00:12:41.720 –> 00:12:46.500
are going on a cancer journey. We’ve been diagnosed with cancer,

168
00:12:47.080 –> 00:12:52.480
and you support so many, so, so many people that have had that cancer

169
00:12:53.400 –> 00:12:58.640
diagnosis and that change in their life from before cancer and now after cancer.

170
00:12:59.140 –> 00:13:00.700
So I think you’re part of that journey.

171
00:13:00.700 –> 00:13:05.140
It’s very honourable to be part of such a difficult time in people’s life, for sure.

172
00:13:05.880 –> 00:13:08.660
And I think that’s why we need to give specific advice for them.

173
00:13:08.740 –> 00:13:13.140
So if I had met you when you were six stones, I would have really encouraged you

174
00:13:13.140 –> 00:13:16.360
to try and get calories from wherever you could tolerate, you know,

175
00:13:16.460 –> 00:13:19.660
especially with a sore mouth, nausea, perhaps taste changes.

176
00:13:20.200 –> 00:13:23.300
Potentially, if I saw you now for just like a one-to-one healthy eating advice,

177
00:13:23.480 –> 00:13:25.620
I might tell you. You’d be in trouble, mate.

178
00:13:26.520 –> 00:13:28.420
I’d be into the wrong things.

179
00:13:28.940 –> 00:13:32.000
And the thing’s like, I do agree what you said, that food still has to be enjoyable,

180
00:13:32.240 –> 00:13:35.980
okay? It doesn’t matter what part of your journey you are, even after cancer,

181
00:13:36.020 –> 00:13:40.660
even in rehab, you know, even 10, 20 years later, I still want people to enjoy food

182
00:13:40.660 –> 00:13:44.140
because it’s such an important part. You know, you do it at least three times a day,

183
00:13:44.140 –> 00:13:47.400
so it has to be pleasure as well, not just nutrition.

184
00:13:48.040 –> 00:13:50.380
Speaking of which, should we get back to these smoothies?

185
00:13:50.400 –> 00:13:53.460
Because all this fruit is going off in front of my eyes, look.

186
00:13:53.460 –> 00:13:56.660
So here we go, the bananas, the peanut butter and the cacao.

187
00:13:56.780 –> 00:13:59.880
So what I would add to add some protein, because protein is really important

188
00:13:59.880 –> 00:14:03.720
to maintain your muscle mass as much as possible, it has also your bone strength,

189
00:14:04.260 –> 00:14:06.120
your immune system, your skin integrity.

190
00:14:06.820 –> 00:14:09.500
So I would add a little bit of Greek yoghurt, which we’ve got here.

191
00:14:09.540 –> 00:14:10.940
Oh, I love a bit of Greek yoghurt.

192
00:14:11.020 –> 00:14:11.820
You can try it.

193
00:14:12.360 –> 00:14:13.060
Do you want me to put it in?

194
00:14:13.220 –> 00:14:14.700
Yeah, go for it. Or do you want me to do it?

195
00:14:14.700 –> 00:14:15.840
Oh, you can do it, it’s fine.

196
00:14:16.220 –> 00:14:21.980
And here, depending on your goals, you can choose to have 0% fat, 5% or 10%.

197
00:14:21.980 –> 00:14:24.620
If you’re a bit more on a weight management,

198
00:14:24.840 –> 00:14:29.100
trying to look a little bit more for like healthy eating, perhaps,

199
00:14:29.460 –> 00:14:31.780
or losing weight, then I would recommend 0%.

200
00:14:32.580 –> 00:14:33.920
That’s plenty, thank you.

201
00:14:34.280 –> 00:14:38.100
Well, if you’re needing a nutrition boost and needing a lot of extra calories,

202
00:14:38.360 –> 00:14:40.900
I would go for the 10% full fat Greek yoghurt.

203
00:14:41.620 –> 00:14:45.680
More calories and still more protein than just like a normal fruit yoghurt, for example.

204
00:14:46.220 –> 00:14:49.140
For our liquid, for this one, a liquid base, I would add milk.

205
00:14:49.140 –> 00:14:52.420
And same thing here, you can go for semi-skimmed or whole milk,

206
00:14:52.500 –> 00:14:55.580
depending on what your goal is, whether you’re trying to gain weight or not.

207
00:14:56.820 –> 00:14:58.240
I think that’s probably plenty.

208
00:14:58.260 –> 00:15:01.720
It really depends on how thick you like it or not.

209
00:15:02.280 –> 00:15:02.640
Perfect.

210
00:15:03.880 –> 00:15:04.060
Yeah.

211
00:15:05.080 –> 00:15:09.280
Anything that you put in, maybe a bit of salt or sugars or anything like that?

212
00:15:09.700 –> 00:15:11.960
Very much depending on patient preference.

213
00:15:12.160 –> 00:15:14.880
Some people, like you said, you mentioned taste changes before.

214
00:15:15.100 –> 00:15:18.260
Some people find food that is really, really sweet, like overwhelmingly sweet.

215
00:15:18.260 –> 00:15:20.860
So perhaps they could add a little bit of salt in there.

216
00:15:21.020 –> 00:15:25.480
Some people find their food too salty, so they could add, for example, a tablespoon of honey.

217
00:15:26.440 –> 00:15:29.600
Again, really, really depending on that person’s own flavour.

218
00:15:29.720 –> 00:15:31.840
If someone needs a little bit extra fibre,

219
00:15:32.060 –> 00:15:34.020
say for example, they’re a bit constipated perhaps,

220
00:15:34.140 –> 00:15:35.660
or just needing a little bit more nutrition,

221
00:15:35.980 –> 00:15:38.030
we could add a tablespoon of oats in there.

222
00:15:40.280 –> 00:15:44.220
Really depending on what the patient needs and goals are and taste preference.

223
00:15:44.460 –> 00:15:46.700
So if you were constipated, you’d put the oats in?

224
00:15:46.700 –> 00:15:48.140
You could. You could a little bit.

225
00:15:48.260 –> 00:15:50.300
And they’re also really good for cholesterol lowering.

226
00:15:50.640 –> 00:15:52.320
Perfect. I think we’re ready to blend now.

227
00:15:57.470 –> 00:15:58.890
So whilst this is blending, Anna,

228
00:15:58.890 –> 00:16:01.990
can you just remind us the ingredients that we’ve put into this

229
00:16:01.990 –> 00:16:05.110
and why you put them in and what their properties are?

230
00:16:05.230 –> 00:16:06.790
And that’s a big question. Off you go.

231
00:16:07.270 –> 00:16:07.870
Yeah, yeah, of course.

232
00:16:08.010 –> 00:16:09.830
So I would say we start with bananas.

233
00:16:10.230 –> 00:16:11.710
They’re a really good source of energy.

234
00:16:11.790 –> 00:16:14.230
They offer us some carbohydrates and also some fibre.

235
00:16:15.110 –> 00:16:18.610
The peanut butter is really good to add a lot of extra calories.

236
00:16:18.670 –> 00:16:19.890
It’s quite high in fat.

237
00:16:20.370 –> 00:16:22.610
It’s giving us a little bit of protein as well.

238
00:16:24.050 –> 00:16:27.590
We add some Greek yoghurt for some extra protein as well.

239
00:16:27.950 –> 00:16:29.990
Our milk is our liquid base.

240
00:16:31.150 –> 00:16:33.630
And the cacao powder is just a little bit of flavour.

241
00:16:34.410 –> 00:16:36.150
Cacao has some antioxidants in it,

242
00:16:36.670 –> 00:16:38.250
but for the small amount that we use,

243
00:16:38.290 –> 00:16:40.210
I don’t think it’s going to provide much of that.

244
00:16:40.330 –> 00:16:40.990
It’s mostly flavour.

245
00:16:41.570 –> 00:16:42.290
Okay, thank you.

246
00:16:42.290 –> 00:16:43.310
I can’t remember if you added anything else.

247
00:16:43.310 –> 00:16:44.330
Shall we try it?

248
00:16:44.970 –> 00:16:45.410
Okay.

249
00:16:45.930 –> 00:16:47.590
I say we. I’m going to pass because

250
00:16:47.590 –> 00:16:51.470
I can’t drink milk, so I’m going to bug out on this one.

251
00:16:51.670 –> 00:16:52.830
I’m going to try it.

252
00:16:55.100 –> 00:16:55.740
All right.

253
00:16:57.720 –> 00:16:59.260
So that, do you know what?

254
00:16:59.280 –> 00:17:00.380
It’s looking a lot better now.

255
00:17:00.560 –> 00:17:01.280
Can we smell it?

256
00:17:01.320 –> 00:17:02.040
Can we have a smell?

257
00:17:02.160 –> 00:17:02.720
Smell-o-vision?

258
00:17:04.819 –> 00:17:06.900
Oh, that’s like pure peanut butter.

259
00:17:07.000 –> 00:17:08.240
Okay, let’s try this.

260
00:17:08.460 –> 00:17:10.359
Now, this has got yoghurt in it now.

261
00:17:10.359 –> 00:17:11.740
I’m not a big fan of the yoghurt.

262
00:17:12.079 –> 00:17:13.440
The thing again, it’s like anything.

263
00:17:13.680 –> 00:17:16.720
If you can get food in you, would you…

264
00:17:17.359 –> 00:17:21.260
Is there a type of food for a different type of chemo treatment?

265
00:17:22.160 –> 00:17:23.500
Not necessarily a type of food,

266
00:17:23.880 –> 00:17:25.339
but there are different requirements.

267
00:17:26.500 –> 00:17:26.680
Sorry.

268
00:17:26.880 –> 00:17:26.980
Thank you.

269
00:17:27.119 –> 00:17:29.720
There are different requirements in terms of calories,

270
00:17:29.920 –> 00:17:32.700
in terms of protein based on someone’s age,

271
00:17:33.220 –> 00:17:36.920
someone’s condition, someone’s BMI, their weight.

272
00:17:37.540 –> 00:17:39.860
So not specific foods because different foods

273
00:17:39.860 –> 00:17:41.920
can provide different things for different people.

274
00:17:43.060 –> 00:17:45.100
So it’s mostly based on their requirements.

275
00:17:45.100 –> 00:17:47.760
Is there anything that we should stay away from,

276
00:17:48.180 –> 00:17:50.380
having had lots of chemo and having a low immune?

277
00:17:50.740 –> 00:17:52.600
I know that I wasn’t allowed Chinese.

278
00:17:53.780 –> 00:17:54.160
Chinese?

279
00:17:54.360 –> 00:17:55.960
I was not allowed Chinese food.

280
00:17:56.120 –> 00:17:57.580
What was the reason for that?

281
00:17:57.580 –> 00:17:58.300
I think it’s for the rice.

282
00:17:59.080 –> 00:17:59.720
Rice in.

283
00:17:59.780 –> 00:18:00.200
Okay.

284
00:18:00.320 –> 00:18:01.400
If we reheated it.

285
00:18:01.400 –> 00:18:01.680
Yeah.

286
00:18:01.920 –> 00:18:03.500
I think then that was the issue.

287
00:18:10.660 –> 00:18:16.880
Visit our website, www.cancercafepodcast.org

288
00:18:16.880 –> 00:18:20.700
Is there anything that we should steer clear of

289
00:18:20.700 –> 00:18:24.020
when we’re getting over chemotherapy

290
00:18:24.020 –> 00:18:25.140
or any sort of other treatment?

291
00:18:25.300 –> 00:18:26.780
Is there anything that we should stay away from?

292
00:18:27.000 –> 00:18:28.940
So obviously you always have to avoid things that

293
00:18:28.940 –> 00:18:30.720
food that you’re allergic to if you do have an allergy.

294
00:18:31.360 –> 00:18:33.300
If you’re talking particularly about patients

295
00:18:33.300 –> 00:18:34.620
that are immunocompromised,

296
00:18:34.700 –> 00:18:36.000
that they have a low immune system

297
00:18:36.000 –> 00:18:37.400
and the doctor would let you know

298
00:18:37.400 –> 00:18:38.900
if that’s the case for you.

299
00:18:39.820 –> 00:18:41.820
The recommendation are to stay away from

300
00:18:42.580 –> 00:18:44.940
foods obviously that are quite raw,

301
00:18:45.200 –> 00:18:48.040
like uncooked eggs or raw meat or raw fish

302
00:18:48.040 –> 00:18:50.060
or shellfish sometimes as well.

303
00:18:51.120 –> 00:18:53.000
Unpasteurized dairy products as well.

304
00:18:53.260 –> 00:18:55.900
So I wouldn’t go for raw cheese or raw milk.

305
00:18:56.820 –> 00:18:56.840
Exactly.

306
00:18:57.440 –> 00:19:00.200
Or cheese that has like mold in there as well.

307
00:19:01.380 –> 00:19:01.920
But the yogurts.

308
00:19:02.060 –> 00:19:05.060
I like the blue cheeses with the like Stilton.

309
00:19:08.200 –> 00:19:10.900
Yogurt, we say probiotics

310
00:19:10.900 –> 00:19:12.700
or like yogurts that contain probiotics

311
00:19:12.700 –> 00:19:14.320
can be a little bit of a tricky one.

312
00:19:14.380 –> 00:19:16.520
So the doctors would usually recommend to avoid

313
00:19:16.520 –> 00:19:17.660
if you’re immunocompromised.

314
00:19:18.240 –> 00:19:18.880
Thank you.

315
00:19:19.120 –> 00:19:19.280
Yeah.

316
00:19:19.440 –> 00:19:21.500
And obviously if you’re reheating certain foods,

317
00:19:21.540 –> 00:19:22.620
make sure that you’re doing it

318
00:19:22.620 –> 00:19:24.440
at the specific temperature for that food

319
00:19:24.440 –> 00:19:25.780
needing to kill the bacteria.

320
00:19:27.200 –> 00:19:28.880
Well I’m feeling a little bit left out here

321
00:19:28.880 –> 00:19:31.420
so can you do something that I can try?

322
00:19:31.580 –> 00:19:32.660
Of course, yeah.

323
00:19:33.100 –> 00:19:35.460
So I’m really keen to try.

324
00:19:35.640 –> 00:19:37.300
We’ve got some lovely mango here

325
00:19:37.300 –> 00:19:40.900
and you’ve got some recipes there.

326
00:19:40.920 –> 00:19:42.520
Are these recipes available online?

327
00:19:42.960 –> 00:19:44.940
Yeah, so these are just recipes that I created

328
00:19:44.940 –> 00:19:47.260
because I run a smoothie workshop here at the Cove.

329
00:19:47.660 –> 00:19:51.440
I’m more than happy for you to post them on your website.

330
00:19:52.220 –> 00:19:53.400
Okay, thank you very much.

331
00:19:53.480 –> 00:19:55.040
That would be great if we could do that.

332
00:19:55.240 –> 00:19:59.140
So there’s one here called Creamy Tropical Nourish Smoothie.

333
00:19:59.840 –> 00:20:01.820
Lots of fruit in there, quite refreshing.

334
00:20:02.140 –> 00:20:04.320
So if the previous one was a little bit heavier,

335
00:20:05.580 –> 00:20:07.520
more like comforting like a hearty smoothie,

336
00:20:07.780 –> 00:20:09.120
we’d say this one is a little bit more light,

337
00:20:09.220 –> 00:20:10.700
more fresh, you know,

338
00:20:10.720 –> 00:20:13.800
for people that perhaps want something,

339
00:20:14.140 –> 00:20:15.700
a little bit more summery basically.

340
00:20:15.900 –> 00:20:17.580
Okay, let’s try this one.

341
00:20:17.660 –> 00:20:20.660
So for this, I would recommend any fruit that you like.

342
00:20:20.800 –> 00:20:23.060
You know, here we’ve got mangoes, strawberries, berries.

343
00:20:23.580 –> 00:20:25.220
I think we might have to put a bit of everything in.

344
00:20:25.420 –> 00:20:25.960
Go ahead.

345
00:20:26.440 –> 00:20:27.280
Do you want another banana?

346
00:20:28.060 –> 00:20:28.800
Yes, please.

347
00:20:28.920 –> 00:20:30.060
Wait, is this half a banana?

348
00:20:30.240 –> 00:20:32.220
So maybe because we’re going to put the other fruit in,

349
00:20:32.720 –> 00:20:34.620
I’ll pass this to my assistant

350
00:20:35.500 –> 00:20:37.760
who will do all the chopping stuff for me.

351
00:20:38.220 –> 00:20:39.740
So we’re going to go for half a banana.

352
00:20:41.200 –> 00:20:43.440
Is it the potassium levels as well from bananas?

353
00:20:43.440 –> 00:20:44.440
Yeah, what is it with bananas?

354
00:20:45.020 –> 00:20:47.580
Bananas are just like generally good in general,

355
00:20:47.580 –> 00:20:49.340
because they’re a good fruit.

356
00:20:49.940 –> 00:20:51.360
They are quite a source of potassium.

357
00:20:51.520 –> 00:20:53.900
I think generally they are known, you know,

358
00:20:53.940 –> 00:20:55.840
people say, oh, if you’ve got low potassium, eat a banana.

359
00:20:56.040 –> 00:20:57.400
Sometimes it’s not that easier, you know,

360
00:20:57.480 –> 00:20:59.000
sometimes especially if you’re having lots of

361
00:21:00.260 –> 00:21:01.160
loose bowel movements.

362
00:21:01.620 –> 00:21:03.060
Sorry to talk about this while we’re making food.

363
00:21:03.160 –> 00:21:03.540
No, you’ve got to.

364
00:21:03.560 –> 00:21:05.560
You can have low electrolytes, you know,

365
00:21:05.560 –> 00:21:06.340
lose quite a lot.

366
00:21:06.580 –> 00:21:07.980
And sometimes a banana is not enough

367
00:21:07.980 –> 00:21:09.460
and you need some replacement,

368
00:21:09.460 –> 00:21:11.660
you know, at the doctors or in the hospital perhaps.

369
00:21:12.120 –> 00:21:14.140
So yeah, generally they are a good source of potassium.

370
00:21:14.560 –> 00:21:15.600
Okay, so what next?

371
00:21:15.780 –> 00:21:16.240
What next?

372
00:21:16.440 –> 00:21:17.300
Any fruit you like.

373
00:21:17.300 –> 00:21:19.360
Oh, let’s put a bit of everything in.

374
00:21:19.460 –> 00:21:20.680
Can we put all three?

375
00:21:20.860 –> 00:21:21.720
Yeah, absolutely.

376
00:21:22.480 –> 00:21:25.280
It’s very much depending on your taste preference.

377
00:21:27.000 –> 00:21:27.220
For sure.

378
00:21:27.680 –> 00:21:30.060
And again, these are room temperature, but…

379
00:21:30.060 –> 00:21:32.460
I think, I think, yeah,

380
00:21:32.600 –> 00:21:34.500
we’ve got a lot of strawberries going on over there.

381
00:21:34.580 –> 00:21:35.540
Oh, I love strawberries.

382
00:21:36.400 –> 00:21:37.180
Some blueberries.

383
00:21:37.360 –> 00:21:38.280
Some lovely blueberries.

384
00:21:38.680 –> 00:21:40.640
And if you were to use frozen berries,

385
00:21:40.980 –> 00:21:42.980
then obviously it’s much nicer,

386
00:21:43.000 –> 00:21:44.160
you know, in your mouth,

387
00:21:44.240 –> 00:21:46.040
if you’re having a sore mouth or something like that.

388
00:21:46.040 –> 00:21:46.780
Yeah.

389
00:21:46.980 –> 00:21:47.560
You like blueberries?

390
00:21:47.840 –> 00:21:48.620
I love blueberries.

391
00:21:48.760 –> 00:21:49.600
I love fruit.

392
00:21:50.080 –> 00:21:51.360
And then for your liquid,

393
00:21:51.540 –> 00:21:52.840
you can choose, obviously,

394
00:21:53.020 –> 00:21:54.360
you can have milk, you said,

395
00:21:54.760 –> 00:21:56.800
but you can have some fruit juice instead.

396
00:21:56.900 –> 00:21:57.800
Obviously, it’s not going to give you

397
00:21:57.800 –> 00:21:58.920
the same amount of protein,

398
00:21:59.060 –> 00:22:01.100
but it’s still good as a liquid base.

399
00:22:01.460 –> 00:22:02.780
So you mentioned fruit juice there.

400
00:22:02.780 –> 00:22:05.100
We’ve got orange juice and pineapple juice here.

401
00:22:06.100 –> 00:22:07.140
Obviously, other fruit,

402
00:22:07.180 –> 00:22:09.600
I mean, you could cut orange and pineapple up,

403
00:22:09.600 –> 00:22:11.620
but the juice, where it’s juiced down,

404
00:22:12.060 –> 00:22:13.440
I know there’s different types of juice,

405
00:22:13.440 –> 00:22:16.200
the percentage or the,

406
00:22:16.200 –> 00:22:18.720
you can get some that are from concentrate

407
00:22:18.720 –> 00:22:21.300
or some that are actually juice, juice.

408
00:22:21.600 –> 00:22:21.940
Yeah.

409
00:22:22.240 –> 00:22:24.680
They act pretty much equally.

410
00:22:25.180 –> 00:22:26.080
So when you’re talking,

411
00:22:26.240 –> 00:22:27.720
when you’re looking at the guidelines,

412
00:22:28.080 –> 00:22:28.920
it’s recommended,

413
00:22:29.600 –> 00:22:30.920
healthy eating guidelines I’m talking about,

414
00:22:32.060 –> 00:22:34.540
recommended not to have more than 150 mils a day.

415
00:22:34.540 –> 00:22:36.420
And that’s because it can damage your teeth,

416
00:22:36.560 –> 00:22:37.400
it can cause cavities.

417
00:22:37.640 –> 00:22:39.100
So we wouldn’t recommend people

418
00:22:39.100 –> 00:22:41.060
to just go and drink a liter of juice every day.

419
00:22:41.300 –> 00:22:42.760
And a brie go there.

420
00:22:42.760 –> 00:22:45.180
The dietitian from the Cove

421
00:22:45.180 –> 00:22:47.200
at the Royal Cornwall Hospital

422
00:22:47.200 –> 00:22:51.860
talking to Rob Stott and Emma Coom

423
00:22:51.860 –> 00:22:53.560
about making smoothies.

424
00:22:53.560 –> 00:22:56.120
This is a special episode.

425
00:22:56.380 –> 00:22:59.980
We’re doing a bit of a Saturday morning breakfast

426
00:22:59.980 –> 00:23:01.420
or something like that.

427
00:23:01.660 –> 00:23:04.360
We are making smoothies

428
00:23:04.360 –> 00:23:09.500
and this is recorded at the filming of a special video,

429
00:23:09.500 –> 00:23:16.420
which will go on www.cancercafe.org very soon.

430
00:23:16.780 –> 00:23:19.340
So let’s go back to the filming session

431
00:23:19.340 –> 00:23:24.960
where Emma and Rob are talking to dietitian Anna Briego.

432
00:23:25.000 –> 00:23:25.800
If you are struggling

433
00:23:25.800 –> 00:23:27.240
and it’s the only thing you’re managing

434
00:23:27.740 –> 00:23:28.960
during your cancer treatment,

435
00:23:29.240 –> 00:23:30.760
then obviously that doesn’t apply to you.

436
00:23:30.940 –> 00:23:32.200
Yeah, that’s really useful information

437
00:23:32.200 –> 00:23:33.980
because you can make a big smoothie.

438
00:23:34.040 –> 00:23:35.140
And as we’ve mentioned earlier,

439
00:23:35.140 –> 00:23:35.980
you can freeze it.

440
00:23:36.800 –> 00:23:38.840
So, you know, if you make a 300 mil smoothie,

441
00:23:38.840 –> 00:23:40.520
you can drink half a bit today

442
00:23:40.520 –> 00:23:41.680
or just pop it in the fridge

443
00:23:41.680 –> 00:23:43.620
and you’ve got a smoothie for tomorrow, haven’t you?

444
00:23:43.900 –> 00:23:44.960
Or even in the night.

445
00:23:45.100 –> 00:23:47.900
I mean, obviously afterwards you’re awake all hours.

446
00:23:48.260 –> 00:23:48.320
Yeah.

447
00:23:48.380 –> 00:23:50.120
Oh no, you’ve got to count down 24 hours

448
00:23:50.120 –> 00:23:51.160
before you have another one.

449
00:23:52.300 –> 00:23:53.780
No, it’s in my face.

450
00:23:54.420 –> 00:23:55.700
I’ve got a funny face

451
00:23:55.700 –> 00:23:58.060
because I was doing a litre of Tropicana

452
00:23:58.540 –> 00:24:00.280
so that probably was bad.

453
00:24:01.180 –> 00:24:01.620
Potentially.

454
00:24:02.020 –> 00:24:05.480
Yeah, and I did lose the back teeth as well.

455
00:24:05.760 –> 00:24:07.680
Yeah, but we don’t know why, do we?

456
00:24:07.680 –> 00:24:09.700
Make sure you have really good hygiene,

457
00:24:09.860 –> 00:24:10.560
you know, mouth hygiene,

458
00:24:10.780 –> 00:24:12.660
brush your teeth twice a day before going to bed

459
00:24:12.660 –> 00:24:14.560
and all the dental recommendations.

460
00:24:14.840 –> 00:24:15.340
Happy with orange?

461
00:24:15.700 –> 00:24:16.120
Yes.

462
00:24:16.660 –> 00:24:17.620
You put quite a lot of fruit,

463
00:24:17.620 –> 00:24:18.980
so I imagine you need quite a bit,

464
00:24:19.040 –> 00:24:20.040
otherwise it’s going to be quite thick.

465
00:24:20.260 –> 00:24:22.760
So we’ve got banana, strawberry, blueberries and mango

466
00:24:22.760 –> 00:24:24.560
and we’re adding orange juice.

467
00:24:24.560 –> 00:24:25.460
That’s probably enough.

468
00:24:25.740 –> 00:24:27.200
Do you want the pineapple juice now

469
00:24:27.200 –> 00:24:29.720
or do you think that’ll make it too acidy or tangy?

470
00:24:30.600 –> 00:24:31.260
Really depends.

471
00:24:31.280 –> 00:24:33.060
If you have a sore mouth or mouth ulcers,

472
00:24:33.100 –> 00:24:34.920
I’ll probably stay clear from citrusy

473
00:24:34.920 –> 00:24:37.440
or very acidic foods because it will sting.

474
00:24:37.440 –> 00:24:39.660
I don’t think we need any extra juice in there.

475
00:24:39.780 –> 00:24:41.720
We’re not going to put any peanut butter in there.

476
00:24:41.780 –> 00:24:42.420
No, not the stuff.

477
00:24:42.580 –> 00:24:44.040
Because I don’t like peanut butter,

478
00:24:44.140 –> 00:24:44.640
do you know how I mentioned that?

479
00:24:44.660 –> 00:24:45.780
How can you not like peanut butter?

480
00:24:46.060 –> 00:24:47.400
So at the moment here,

481
00:24:47.520 –> 00:24:50.600
if you were to add a little bit of Greek yoghurt,

482
00:24:50.600 –> 00:24:51.100
for example,

483
00:24:51.120 –> 00:24:52.580
then you’re adding some protein there.

484
00:24:52.900 –> 00:24:53.680
At the moment here,

485
00:24:53.920 –> 00:24:56.960
you’re pretty much only having carbohydrates and fibre.

486
00:24:57.320 –> 00:24:59.840
So I wouldn’t count this as a complete smoothie.

487
00:25:00.240 –> 00:25:01.920
This will be more for pleasure.

488
00:25:02.160 –> 00:25:04.300
So do we need to put some Greek yoghurt in there?

489
00:25:04.460 –> 00:25:04.900
Is that what you’re saying?

490
00:25:04.900 –> 00:25:05.840
If you’re happy with that,

491
00:25:05.920 –> 00:25:07.420
then that will add a little bit of protein in there.

492
00:25:07.420 –> 00:25:08.600
It will be a little bit more balanced.

493
00:25:08.840 –> 00:25:10.460
You’ve also brought milk powder along.

494
00:25:10.860 –> 00:25:12.980
So we’ve got milk and we’ve got milk powder.

495
00:25:13.240 –> 00:25:13.500
Yeah.

496
00:25:13.740 –> 00:25:16.020
So I often recommend that to patients

497
00:25:16.020 –> 00:25:17.300
that need a little bit extra calories

498
00:25:17.300 –> 00:25:18.520
and protein in their diet.

499
00:25:18.940 –> 00:25:22.420
So what you can do is make fortified milk.

500
00:25:22.820 –> 00:25:24.180
Like we discussed in the podcast,

501
00:25:24.260 –> 00:25:26.000
you take a pint of whole milk

502
00:25:26.000 –> 00:25:28.580
and you add five tablespoons of skimmed milk powder.

503
00:25:28.940 –> 00:25:29.840
You shake it really well

504
00:25:29.840 –> 00:25:31.660
and you use that fortified milk

505
00:25:31.660 –> 00:25:33.440
like you would use your milk normally.

506
00:25:33.700 –> 00:25:36.260
So in tea, coffee, smoothies, porridge,

507
00:25:36.260 –> 00:25:38.020
can you say that again?

508
00:25:38.200 –> 00:25:40.320
So you take one pint of whole milk,

509
00:25:40.500 –> 00:25:42.680
one part of whole milk, blue top.

510
00:25:42.680 –> 00:25:43.140
Blue top.

511
00:25:43.260 –> 00:25:46.140
And you add five tablespoons of skimmed milk powder.

512
00:25:46.700 –> 00:25:48.680
You mix it really well so there’s no clumps

513
00:25:48.680 –> 00:25:52.100
and you use that pint within 24 hours.

514
00:25:52.580 –> 00:25:53.800
You use it through the day

515
00:25:53.800 –> 00:25:56.380
like you would use your milk normally.

516
00:25:56.800 –> 00:25:59.400
And you add, you double the amount of protein

517
00:25:59.400 –> 00:26:01.060
and you add a lot of extra calories.

518
00:26:01.180 –> 00:26:02.060
So if you’re struggling,

519
00:26:02.520 –> 00:26:03.820
you don’t have to change the volume

520
00:26:03.820 –> 00:26:05.340
of how much milk you’re drinking.

521
00:26:05.340 –> 00:26:07.160
It’s liquid, easy to swallow,

522
00:26:07.440 –> 00:26:09.080
but you’re getting much more nutrition

523
00:26:09.080 –> 00:26:10.500
from the same amount of volume.

524
00:26:10.900 –> 00:26:12.520
So if you eat cereal in the morning,

525
00:26:12.600 –> 00:26:14.320
you could have that on your breakfast cereal.

526
00:26:14.400 –> 00:26:15.920
You can have it in your tea and coffee

527
00:26:15.920 –> 00:26:16.820
throughout the day.

528
00:26:17.580 –> 00:26:19.320
Like you would use your milk.

529
00:26:19.320 –> 00:26:20.610
You can make custard with it.

530
00:26:21.640 –> 00:26:22.480
You can make puddings.

531
00:26:23.240 –> 00:26:24.020
We’re ready to blend.

532
00:26:25.340 –> 00:26:26.700
So whilst this is blending Anna,

533
00:26:26.760 –> 00:26:29.320
can you just give us a final tip?

534
00:26:29.760 –> 00:26:30.220
Yeah.

535
00:26:30.500 –> 00:26:31.160
I know, absolutely.

536
00:26:31.680 –> 00:26:33.020
And because I don’t want you to think

537
00:26:33.020 –> 00:26:35.220
that dieticians are only smoothie chefs

538
00:26:35.220 –> 00:26:37.240
obviously we are here to help anyone

539
00:26:37.240 –> 00:26:39.340
that is struggling with nutrition

540
00:26:40.160 –> 00:26:41.620
through their cancer before

541
00:26:41.620 –> 00:26:43.020
or after their treatment

542
00:26:43.020 –> 00:26:44.360
or during as well.

543
00:26:44.520 –> 00:26:46.480
So please, if you are struggling

544
00:26:46.480 –> 00:26:47.940
ask for our referral,

545
00:26:48.200 –> 00:26:50.120
ask for help early on

546
00:26:50.120 –> 00:26:51.760
so we can provide that for you.

547
00:27:02.540 –> 00:27:05.660

Here to support you

566
00:28:04.820 –> 00:28:07.140
the Cornwall Cancer Cafe podcast.

567
00:28:07.500 –> 00:28:09.540
So I’ve been busy doing the cameras

568
00:28:09.540 –> 00:28:11.780
for the video version of this

569
00:28:11.780 –> 00:28:14.800
which will be up on the website fairly soon

570
00:28:14.800 –> 00:28:17.680
and I’m going to have a try

571
00:28:17.680 –> 00:28:19.800
of some of those smoothies in a sec

572
00:28:19.800 –> 00:28:21.800
because I’m holding microphones, cameras

573
00:28:21.800 –> 00:28:22.740
and all sorts of things

574
00:28:22.740 –> 00:28:24.440
but you’ve already had a go Emma

575
00:28:24.940 –> 00:28:26.900
what does that taste like?

576
00:28:27.320 –> 00:28:28.500
Oh well the one I’ve just tried

577
00:28:28.500 –> 00:28:30.160
it’s gone I’ve drunk it all

578
00:28:30.160 –> 00:28:30.820
it was lovely

579
00:28:30.820 –> 00:28:32.900
so I’ve had my whatever there was

580
00:28:33.660 –> 00:28:35.160
125 was it 125?

581
00:28:35.820 –> 00:28:36.300
150?

582
00:28:36.460 –> 00:28:39.220
150 I think I’ve had my 150 mils for today.

583
00:28:39.760 –> 00:28:41.120
Rob are you a convert?

584
00:28:41.760 –> 00:28:43.140
Not to yogurt no.

585
00:28:44.220 –> 00:28:45.200
I still don’t like yogurt.

586
00:28:45.280 –> 00:28:47.700
Are you a convert to smoothies?

587
00:28:47.980 –> 00:28:49.220
Yeah oh I love a smoothie.

588
00:28:50.680 –> 00:28:52.400
You already had smoothies?

589
00:28:52.740 –> 00:28:53.560
Yeah I love a smoothie

590
00:28:54.360 –> 00:28:56.100
I mean when I had it

591
00:28:56.100 –> 00:28:57.520
it was just I didn’t have to chew

592
00:28:57.520 –> 00:28:59.080
probably because I’m just lazy really

593
00:28:59.620 –> 00:29:00.820
just didn’t have to chew.

594
00:29:01.980 –> 00:29:02.820
Okay now Anna

595
00:29:02.820 –> 00:29:04.700
this is an important question

596
00:29:04.700 –> 00:29:06.320
do you have smoothies at home anyway?

597
00:29:06.700 –> 00:29:07.840
I actually do

598
00:29:07.840 –> 00:29:09.860
especially in summertime I would say

599
00:29:09.860 –> 00:29:11.740
yeah they’re cold they’re refreshing

600
00:29:11.740 –> 00:29:14.680
you can add a lot of nutrition in there

601
00:29:14.680 –> 00:29:15.680
lots of fruit

602
00:29:15.680 –> 00:29:17.180
so yeah I do love a smoothie

603
00:29:17.180 –> 00:29:19.240
I think that’s why I run the workshop as well.

604
00:29:20.140 –> 00:29:21.920
Right okay so we’re heading

605
00:29:21.920 –> 00:29:23.260
towards the end of this show

606
00:29:23.260 –> 00:29:26.700
the audio version video version soon online

607
00:29:26.700 –> 00:29:29.400
but we’ve forgotten to say something

608
00:29:29.400 –> 00:29:30.220
haven’t we Emma?

609
00:29:30.540 –> 00:29:32.660
Yeah yeah we usually offer

610
00:29:32.660 –> 00:29:34.540
all of our listeners a big hug

611
00:29:34.540 –> 00:29:36.300
because when you give a hug

612
00:29:36.300 –> 00:29:38.360
you get a hug.

613
00:29:38.940 –> 00:29:40.740
Right perfect way to end the show

614
00:29:40.740 –> 00:29:43.960
and we’ll be back with you next week.

615
00:29:44.320 –> 00:29:44.900
Bye bye.

616
00:29:45.020 –> 00:29:45.600
Bye bye.
