Preoperative micronutrient supplementation in fast-track surgery programs have shown to reduce complications, shorten recovery, and thereby lower costs. In a prospective randomized study, the metabolic effects of a combination of alpha-ketoglutaric acid (alpha-KG) and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) were evaluated concerning their impact on improvement of exercise capacity and reduction of oxidative stress in lung surgery.
