29 Apr 2019 --- Personalized nutrition can boost hospital patients’ consumption of protein and calories, as well as improve clinical treatment outcomes, according to a new study published in The Lancet. Researchers from the University of Basel and Aarau Cantonal Hospital, Switzerland, examined the benefits of such nutritional support in a randomized controlled study. The trial showed that individual meal plans resulted in fewer complications and a decreased mortality rate and suggests that assessments by trained dieticians during patient-admission may tackle the issue.
