Life in an organism and cell is driven by the metabolic reactions, or metabolism. Metabolism is linked to the generation, as well as consumption of energy. Any kind of aberrations in metabolism either genetically driven, or environmentally stimulated, as well as pathologically generated and nutritional imbalance leads to metabolic disturbances. The consequence of such disturbances leads to diseases, like cancer, as well as neurological problems. Metabolic changes also effects upon immune system functionality. Survival of a cell and performing its physiological functions under such condition is called as metabolic reprogramming.

Advocation of medicine to restore back health of a person gains utmost importance, called as the first line of therapy. However, a person undergoing medication must be also well supported with a well-balanced diet, or nutrition for health recovery. It is essential to understand the sources that can modulate the metabolic flux, and this might be well studied in people with nutritional imbalance, like undernourished, and economically weaker population.

More research at the molecular level to understand totally the effect of nutritional sources, and or ingredients in metabolism and metabolic flux is essential, apart from measures to understand metabolic flux changes by radiology techniques. Additionally, physical activity and social interactions are a necessity for health restoration. This requires reliance on nursing and other corresponding and associated professionals for a patient health improvement. This work is intended to highlight upon the importance of nutrition in metabolic reprogramming for recovery of a patients from a diseased condition along with reliance on nursing and patient care.
