The Avemar product line, with fermented wheat germ extract as the naturally active ingredient, is also recommended for use in cases of abnormal thinness during the course of the disease.
CANCER CAN BE ASSOCIATED WITH DRASTIC WEIGHT LOSS IN MANY CASES.
Abnormal thinness (cachexia) can be caused by a decrease in appetite caused by the tumour, malabsorption, but also by nervousness, possible side effects of the disease or oncological treatments (e.g. diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, mucous membrane inflammation, etc.). Weight loss can hinder recovery, impair quality of life or affect the initiation or continuation of anti-cancer treatments.
