摘要

Malnutrition in advanced cancer patients continues to be a vexing problem that contributes to morbidity and mortality. Nutrition interventions have traditionally been used to support patients with malnutrition secondary to cancer and cancer treatments. More recently it has been utilized in the primary and secondary prevention of common forms of cancer in patients undergoing cancer treatment and in cancer survivors respectively. During the emotional stress of dealing with cancer at any stage, patients derive increased quality of life and a sense of control over their lives as the result of receiving supportive advice on diet and lifestyle.
