Changes in fat metabolism such as increased lipolysis by 85%. These metabolic changes must be prevented by providing adequate nutrition for patients with cancer. Malnutrition in patients with this cancer can increase the length of stay and increase mortality. With the provision of adequate nutritional therapy is expected to help accelerate the healing process of patients with cancer.
