Read our Breast Cancer research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This research study investigates whether following a special eating plan—rich in foods like fish, nuts, vegetables, and whole grains—can help protect your brain and memory during breast cancer treatment. Some women experience memory problems or 'chemo brain' after chemotherapy, and this study is testing whether good nutrition might prevent or reduce those side effects. You would either receive personalized nutrition counseling from a dietitian to help you follow this healthy eating plan, or attend general health education sessions.
Many breast cancer survivors experience memory loss and brain fog that can last for years after treatment ends. Researchers want to know if eating certain brain-protective foods might help prevent these cognitive changes from happening in the first place.

If you join this study, you will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group receives personalized nutrition counseling from a registered dietitian who will help you learn about and follow the brain-healthy eating plan tailored to your preferences and lifestyle. The other group attends educational sessions on general health topics. Both groups will participate in video calls using Zoom and likely complete questionnaires about your memory, thinking, and diet at different points during your cancer treatment. The study involves about 43 women total, and you would be in regular contact with the research team as you undergo your cancer therapy.
