Hello dear. Nothing can substitute a good nutritious balanced well cooked diet. Suppliments can be given however, if oral intake is low. The suppliment you have listed is fine. Nausea , vomiting and hair loss are usual side effects of chemotherapy. Ask your physician to prescribe some good anti vomiting drugs.
Thanks and regards
