Summary
This study tests whether personalized nutrition plans can improve recovery after Whipple surgery for pancreatic, bile duct, or ampullary cancers. Twenty patients in Pakistan will receive tailored meals and supplements before and after surgery, and be followed for 6 months. Researchers will measure body composition, blood tests, and complications to see if the approach helps.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide evidence-based nutrition guidelines to help Whipple surgery patients recover faster with fewer complications.
What could go wrong
