Food Insecurity and Nutritional Challenges in Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Survivors in the U.S.A.: A Narrative Review and Call to Action
Abstract
:1. Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Cancer Survivors “Late Effects”
2. Nutritional Challenges in AYA Cancer Survivors
3. Food Insecurity in AYA Cancer Survivors
4. Financial Insecurity and Mental Health Concerns in AYA Cancer Survivors
5. Potential Exacerbation of Food Insecurity by COVID-19 in AYA Cancer Survivors
6. Differences between Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Survivors
7. Recommendations for Future Research and Policy to Address Food and Nutrition Security in AYA Cancer Survivors
- Conduct studies to estimate food and nutrition security in AYA cancer survivors to better understand risks in adolescents and young adults as distinct subgroups.
- Initiate campaigns and educational support programs that specifically target AYA cancer survivors to enhance awareness of existing food support programs (e.g., SNAP and WIC).
- Conduct routine screening for food insecurity, nutrition security and malnutrition in AYA cancer survivors as part of survivorship plans or, preferably, starting at cancer diagnosis and continuing throughout survivorship during clinical follow-up visits.
- Provide professional nutritional support services to AYA cancer survivors, with a particular focus on those who are identified to be at increased risk during screening.
- Provide special provisions in SNAP tailored to AYA cancer survivors with a focus on the needs of young adult cancer survivors to maximize benefits (e.g., similar to the provisions for the elderly).
- Initiate campaigns to reduce the stigma associated with food insecurity screening and the use of food support services.
