Investigators are evaluating the nutritional role of IAtta supplementation along with nutritional counselling in delaying the progression of cachexia to refractory cachexia in adult cancer Indian patients. Patients will receive IAtta (100 g) or whole wheat flour (100 g) for daily consumption for 6 months. Dietary and physical activity counseling will be imparted every fortnight to patients. Nutritional, biochemical, quality of life and anthropometric estimations will be assessed at baseline, after 3 months and at 6 months of intervention for all patients. Investigators hypothesize that intake of nutrient rich bread mix IAtta (along with dietary and physical activity counselling) for six months will improve the health status and quality of life in free-living patients suffering from cancer cachexia.
