[Precision nutritional therapy in gastrointestinal tumor].

Apart from individual genetic background, unhealthy lifestyle and diet, etc., nutrition also plays an important role in the occurrence and progression of gastrointestinal tumors. Although some patients with gastrointestinal tumors can be satisfied with the traditional nutritional support, it is apparently inadequate for the systemic management of all patients. Precision nutrition support, also known as personalized nutrition support, refers to safe and efficient individualized nutrition intervention based on the investigation of individual genetic background, life characteristics, metabolic indicators, intestinal microbial characteristics, and physiological status factors through big data analysis for the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. This review focuses on the relationship between nutrition and gastrointestinal tumors and discusses the progress of precision nutrition support therapy in the gastrointestinal tumors. Based on this, we hope to achieve effective personalized intervention protocols, and improve the clinical outcome and the overall oncology care of gastrointestinal tumors.
