Breast Cancer Survivors’ Diet and Physical Activity Preferences and Barriers: How COVID-19 Changed the Intervention Landscape

Hybrid care, combining in-person with technology-based delivery, shows promise in enhancing flexibility and accessibility in nutrition and exercise interventions amid the pandemic.
