Nutrition Intervention Study |
Nutrition intervention of a high energy high protein food formulation enriched with Annona reticulata aqueous leaves extract, developed for gastrointestinal cancer patients with parameters such as body composition, anthropometric, biochemical, nutritional, dietary and QoL will be compared at baseline, during (4th week) and after intervention (8th week).
Note: Acute toxicity studies of Annona reticulata leaves has been conducted in swiss albino mice model and no adverse effects were observed. (Reference: Shivanna, L. M., Sarjan, H. N., & Urooj, A.

Brief Summary
|
This
is a randomized, open label, nutrition intervention study to evaluate the
efficacy of a high energy high protein food formulation enriched with Annona reticulata aqueous leaves extract
in the management of gastrointestinal cancers in patients undergoing
chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Primary outcome expected is alleviation of
NIS, improvement in nutritional status and quality of life. The food
formulation is composed of Wheat, Rice, Ragi, Bengal gram, Green gram, Whey
protein concentrate, Encapsulated maltodextrin containing the extract, Coconut
oil and Palm oil. Each patient will receive 100g of food
formulation per day during the study period.
Parameters
such as body composition, somatic, biochemical, dietary, antioxidant status and
quality of life will be evaluated at baseline, during intervention (4th
week) and after intervention (8th week) to evaluate the efficacy of
the food formulation in the management of gastrointestinal cancer.
Note: 5 mL of blood will be drawn to analyze the haematological
and biochemical parameters during the study period at three occasions. |
