Yes, these nutrients can also be used in people with cachexia.
Thank you very much for your extensive information. I would like to ask whether, in addition to the supplements you mentioned, such supplements as Fresubin Energy Drink, Modulen IBD and Nutridrink Protein Omega 3 can be used in a person with cachexia?

To @Martha:
There are specialized industrial diets and liquid supplements available on the market that can be used to feed patients with cachexia.
With cachexia, it is recommended to use liquid protein supplements, which are a source of essential nutrients and can help to gain weight in people with this condition. Before starting supplementation, it is recommended to consult a doctor in order to choose the right product and determine the optimal dosage.
Nutrients for oral use are a wide range of products with a wide range of flavors (everyone will find something for themselves). They can be served as a second breakfast or afternoon snack with the addition of, for example, fruit, or sipped between meals. The most popular are:
RESOURCE - a diet with a high protein content and the right proportions of all nutrients (carbohydrates, fats, minerals, vitamins). The product is recommended for people with increased energy and protein requirements. They are suitable for both oral and gavage administration. Intended for children and adults. They are available in powder and ready-to-use liquid in bottles of 200 ml.

To @Artur:
Preparations with an increased amount of protein should be used, because during the exacerbation of the disease, the demand for protein increases, compared to the demand of a healthy person, and amounts to 1.2-1.5 g/kg of body weight/day. for example.:
Nutridrink Protein: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/55263/nutridrink-protein-o-smaku-owocow-lesnych-plyn/apteki
Fresubin Protein Energy Drink: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/31314/fresubin-protein-energy-drink-o-smaku-waniliowym-plyn/apteki
The diet of a person with Crohn's disease depends on the stage – whether they are in exacerbation or remission at the moment. The recommended products will then be different. It is recommended that a patient with Crohn's disease be in constant cooperation with a clinical dietitian, who will individually adjust the diet to the patient's ailments and preferences at a given time.
