摘要:
The present invention provides methods of providing long-term and tube-fed nutrition to patients requiring same. More specifically, the present invention provides methods and compositions for providing long-term nutrition to an elderly patient.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a nutritional composition which is liquid and shelf-stable or powdered and reconstitutable. The composition has a fiber content of more than 2.5 g/fibber per 100 ml of the composition. Furthermore, it has an energy content of 1.3-1.8 kcal/ml. The composition is useful to improve and maintain gut comfort, restoring a well-balanced gut flora, especially in an elderly patient prone to malnutrition. The invention further relates to a process for preparing the nutritional composition.
摘要:
In an embodiment, compositions comprising monoacylglycerols (MAG), such as sn-1(3) MAG, are administered with a lipase inhibitor, such as tetrahydrolipstatin, and/or with a diet low in fat and/or calories. In another embodiment, compositions comprising MAG, such as sn-1(3) MAG, are administered concurrently with a lipase inhibitor, such as tetrahydrolipstatin, and/or with fat-soluble nutrients. The compositions and the methods of using the compositions enhance absorption of fatty acids and fat-soluble nutrients such as fat-soluble vitamins and carotenoids to address nutritional deficiencies due to a weight loss diet used in association with a lipase inhibitor.
摘要:
The present invention provides methods and compositions for providing long- term tube-fed nutrition. More specifically, the present invention provides methods and compositions for providing long-term tube-fed maintenance to a patient.
摘要:
Pursuant to the present invention, methods and compositions are provided for providing long-term tube-fed nutrition. More specifically, pursuant to the present invention, methods and compositions are provided for providing long-term tube-fed nutrition to cancer patients.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a nutritional composition suitable for patients undergoing chemotherapy and/or radiation such as cancer patients. The composition, which may be in powder or liquid form, comprises casein and whey proteins, TGF-beta and free glutamine.

摘要:
The present disclosure relates to nutritional compositions comprising a fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS) in an amount of 35 to 44% by weight; a polysaccharide that is not a partially hydrolyzed guar gum such as, for example, an arabinogalactan in an amount of 50% to 38% by weight; and inulin in an amount of 12% to 24% by weight. The FOS and the polysaccharide may be present in a weight ratio of about 1:1. More specifically, the FOS and inulin may be present in a weight ratio of about 7:3. Also provided are methods of promoting gut microbiota balance and health. The methods include administering an effective amount of the nutritional composition to patients in need of same.
摘要:
Nutritional compositions and methods of using the nutritional compositions are provided. In a general embodiment, the present disclosure provides a nutritional composition including one or more proteins, one or more amino acids and one or more exogenous nucleotides. The nutritional compositions can be specifically used to assist a patient in weaning from partial or total parenteral nutrition to enteral nutrition with improved tolerance.
摘要:
A composition comprising whey protein and optionally Vitamin D and calcium can be administered to an individual to decrease fat deposition in muscle; increase muscle density; improve or maintain muscle quality; and/or treat or prevent muscle weakness. The composition can be administered to an elderly individual or an individual having a condition associated with increased fat infiltration in muscle to treat the condition, such as obesity. Preferably at least a portion of the whey protein is whey protein micelles, and a daily dose of the whey protein is at least 18 g.
