Summary

This study looked at whether giving diet advice and a simple exercise program could improve nutrition and reduce muscle loss in children aged 5-18 with cancer. 104 children took part, with half receiving the diet and exercise plan for three months while the other half waited. The goal was to see if these changes could help kids maintain a healthier body during cancer treatment.
