This is particularly true with cancer patients, who may have systemic disease producing multiple physical and psychological effects and who require complex treatment. Some solutions can be found which, if tailored to the individual patient, can improve the quality of life for both relatives and patients.

Key Words: anorexia • appetite disorders • food preferences • neoplasms • nutrition disorders • palliative treatment
