Peptamen Junior (Peptamen Junior) therapeutic mixture based on hydrolyzed proteins for children 1-10 years old, 400 g

Peptides eliminate the need for gastric work to absorb the nutrients, and the mixture is easily absorbed in the intestine. PEPTAMEN is a fully balanced peptide-based semi-nutrient dry formula for oral administration (tube and oral nutrition). PEPTAMEN is a complete, balanced, peptide-based formula ensuring easy absorption of all nutrients. PEPTAMEN can be used as an additional or transitional nutrition for parenteral nutrition. It can be used as a low-fat product in the diet of patients with lipid digestion disorders.

The unique formula is based on peptides with a chain length of up to 40 amino acids. The various proportions in which PEPTAMEN is diluted make it possible to obtain a nutritional mix with the required caloric value (16% of the energy is provided by the protein component, 33% by the fat component and 51% by the carbohydrates). The protein component is represented by peptides obtained by hydrolysis of whey proteins. The fat component is represented by medium-chain triglycerides, soybean oil and soy lecithin.

Middle-chain triglycerides (MCTs), a fast and easily available source of energy for patients with abnormal gastrointestinal function, make up 70% of the fat component of the composition and improve the absorption of essential fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins. The powder dissolves quickly (by simply stirring with a spoon) and completely, making it easy to use. Even though all peptide-based mixtures have a specific bitter taste, PEPTAMEN stands out not only because of its unique formula but also because it has a really pleasant vanilla taste.
