They will be given 15 gr of protein every morning, and the meal before bedtime will vary in protein content according to the individual needs. Diet registration will be carried out every day during hospitalization. At discharge, participants in the intervention will be instructed and advised with focus on consuming more protein at home.~The control group are having the ordinary hospital diet and are following normal guidelines. They are not offered the protein focused counseling at discharge.~Both groups have diet registration and testing at baseline, discharge and follow-up."
