You Are What You Eat

21 November 2007

You may not think of food as medicine, but the saying “you are what you eat” has more than a grain of truth to it.

Hi, I’m Robin Glance, Nutritionist at the Radiation Oncology department of the McGill University Health Centre. Our team of nearly 50 professionals works with physicians, nurses and other specialists to make sure that every patient treated at the MUHC gets the best balance of food and nutrients to help them get better. And once patients leave the hospital, we’re available to help them make healthy choices at home so they don’t end up back in our care.

I’m proud to be part of the Clinical Nutrition team at the MUHC, and I look forward to doing even more for our patients in the MUHC’s new facilities. You can feed our dream of a better hospital centre by supporting the Best Care for Life campaign. It’s for our patients. For our professionals. For our Community. It’s for Life.
