Prodiet's range of formulas for gastrointestinal health can be indicated for people who are weaning off parenteral nutrition and/or suffer from gastrointestinal disorders, such as inflammatory bowel disease like Peptimax. The Enterfiber line is indicated for treating constipation or chronic diarrhea, among others. These formulas are made with specific ingredients that aim to promote the health and balance of the gastrointestinal tract.
Formulas can be used orally and enterally and are incorporated into the consumer's daily diet to provide specific nutrients to ensure nutrition and nutrient absorption, as well as helping to relieve symptoms and promote gastrointestinal health.
A complete formula for gastrointestinal care must provide the necessary nutrients in the form of rapid digestion and absorption. Ingredients such as hydrolyzed protein and medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) contribute to this. In addition, formulas with glutamine support intestinal integrity and fiber, both soluble and insoluble, support the health of the intestinal flora, contributing to gastrointestinal care²,⁵.
