Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Glasgow Prognostic Score

    A score to evaluate systemic inflammation response

    Change of baseline Glasgow Prognostic Score on day 21

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Serum Lactate

    Change of baseline Serum Lactate on day 21

  • TNF Alpha

    Change of baseline TNF Alpha serum level on day 21

Study Arms (2)

Very Low Carbohydrate Diet

EXPERIMENTAL

The patient will be evaluated for baseline clinical and laboratory values, and counselled on very low carbohydrate diet.

Other: Very Low Carbohydrate Diet

Control

NO INTERVENTION

The patient will be evaluated for baseline clinical and laboratory values, and counselled on normal healthy .

Interventions

1 : 4 ratio of carbohydrate to fat of the total daily calories intake

Very Low Carbohydrate Diet
