| Presentation Title | Curcumin: Whole Foods Contain Bioactive Compounds that may Reduce Symptoms of Enteral Tube Feeding Intolerance and Cachexia in Patients with Head and Neck Cancer |
| Description | Bioactive food components work in combination with other nutrients to reduce inflammation. Therefore, future studies are necessary to determine whether a curcumin supplement ingested with a standard enteral formula will be as beneficial as a whole food formula, to reduce inflammation and symptoms of enteral tube feeding intolerance and cancer-associate cachexia . The primary objective is to decrease the loss of body weight and fat-free mass, to increase survival of patients with head and neck cancer. |
