Abstract in brief

  • Whey protein isolate (WPI) supplementation combined with nutritional counseling improves body composition, muscle strength, and treatment tolerance in malnourished advanced cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.
  • The study showed that patients who received WPI had better phase angle (PhA), standardized PhA (SPA), fat-free mass index (FFMI), body weight, and muscle strength, along with a lower risk of severe chemotherapy side effects.
  • Overall, adding WPI for 3 months helped these patients maintain better health during chemotherapy, but further research is needed to confirm long-term benefits.]
