International Classification:

A61K 3578

US Classification:

424757, 514 2, 514 21, 514 23, 426 72, 426648, 426654, 426656, 426657, 426658

Abstract:

The present invention is directed to an elemental liquid nutritional product useful for providing nutrition to a patient having a malabsorption condition by enterally feeding to the patient a nutritionally effective amount of the liquid nutritional products of the present invention. One nutritional product of the present invention includes a protein system in which at least 65 w/w % of said proteins have a molecular weight of less than 5,000 daltons. The proteins system includes soy protein hydrolysate, and partially hydrolyzed caseinate. The preferred products further include a structured lipid formed from marine oil and medium chain triglyceride oil. Palatability of elemental nutritional products has been improved by keeping caloric density in a range from 0. 60 kcal/ml to about 1. 05 kcal/ml and incorporating sufficient amounts of selected palatability enhancers.
