    Abstract:
    The effect of the balanced feeding formulas "Peptamen" and "Nutren" ("Nestle Swisse", Switzerland) on the immune status was studied in 30 patients immediately after pancreas surgery. 15 patients with full-fledged parenteral alimentation were controls. The catabolic trend of metabolic processes was detected in the early postoperative period. The use of "Peptamen" and "Nutren" inverts metabolism towards anabolism. Profound immunologic disorders were observed both in the cellular and humoral chains immediately after surgery. The early enteral feeding normalized, first, the immunity humoral chain (from the 1st postoperative day) and, then, the immunity cellular chain (by the 6th postoperative day).
