• For tube or oral feeding
• For supplemental or sole-source nutrition
• For use under medical supervision
• Not for parenteral use

Features

• Provides patients with diabetes a calorically-dense formula specifically designed to help manage blood glucose levels and assist with wound healing by providing key levels of calories, protein, vitamins and minerals. Patients with diabetes are often faced with slow healing wounds which increase calorie and protein needs. This product is designed to help provide optimal nutrition during this time of healing and increased needs.
• Contains a unique slowly-digested carbohydrate blend clinically shown to blunt postprandial glycemic response and provide better glucose stability than a standard 1.2 Cal/mL formula, and thus improve blood glucose control.
• 1.5 Cal/mL to meet caloric needs with less volume
• 22% of calories from protein to promote anabolism and support wound healing
• Macronutrient distribution: 45% fat, 22% protein, and 33% carbohydrate
• Includes 10 g/L of NutraFlora scFOS (2.4 g/8 fl.oz)
• Benefits of Nutraflora® scFOS® include:
  - Prebiotics that stimulate the growth of beneficial bacteria (e.g., bifidobacteria) in the colon
  - Help to maintain GI-tract integrity, being the preferred energy source of the colonocytes
  - Stimulate water and electrolyte uptake in the colon, which is important in the management of diarrhea
  - Fermented by bacteria in the colon to short chain fatty acids, which inhibit the growth of C. difficile in at-risk patients (minimum 10 g/day recommended)
  - Enhance calcium absorption (3 g/day)
  -Help maintain a healthy immune system
• Rich in monunsaturated fatty acids (29% of total calories) and 3% of total calories from saturated fatty acids for improved glycemic control and blood lipid profiles. This fatty acid profile meets American Diabetes Association and American Heart Association guidelines.
• Provides plant based omega-3 fatty acids from canola oil (3 g of ALA per 1500 calories) to support circulatory health. This level meets American Heart Association recommendations to support heart health.
• Chromium (200 mcg/L) from chromium picolinate the most bioavailable form of chromium clinically shown to lower fasting and postprandial glucose levels and A1C.Chromium picolinate supports glucose tolerance by helping the body’s own insulin work better.
• 1500 Cal provides at least 100% of the RDIs for 24 key vitamins and minerals.
• Gluten- and lactose-free
• Supplemented with conditionally-essential nutrients carnitine and taurine.
