Summary

This trial will see if a diet intervention can help with nutrition and quality of life after surgery for esophagus or stomach cancer. The study could help patients get more information and support on eating after surgery.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 21 who've had surgery to remove stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer and are starting to eat orally again. Participants must understand English or Spanish, be able to give informed consent, and participate in telehealth sessions. Those unable to follow the study's safety requirements can't join.
What is being tested?
The trial examines if a diet support program delivered via telehealth improves nutrition and life quality after esophagus or stomach cancer surgery. It involves questionnaires, virtual visits, and follows best practices for dietary management post-surgery.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study focuses on dietary support through telehealth rather than medication, traditional side effects aren't expected. However, participants may experience discomfort discussing their health or using technology for communication.
