Description
Bettina Csilla Budai and colleagues pool trial evidence on immune-support feeding in gut cancer surgery in a 2026 review. Special formulas with arginine, nucleotides, and omega-3 fats aim to cut problems after operations. The team searched three databases and gathered 90 randomized trials, with 55 fit for combined analysis covering 7,462 patients.
Patients given the immune formula around surgery had lower odds of joint leaks between bowel ends. Infection odds also fell across lung, urinary, wound, and blood infection outcomes. Hospital stays shortened by about two and a half days on average, which supports the formula as the best-tested option in this field.
