Due to illness and disease, many people struggle with eating adequate amounts of food to maintain healthy body weights. They are simply unable to obtain the nutrition necessary for growth, recovery and survival. Individuals who experience a decreased appetite, difficulty swallowing, or have undergone a surgical procedure that interferes with eating benefit from enteral nutrition and delivery of nutritive ingredients directly into the digestive system in a liquid form. Drinking nutritional formulas and tube feeding are also forms of enteral nutrition, All Enteral Supplements are designed to provide the correct number of calories, grams of proteins, carbohydrates and fats to achieve health and wellness-specific to the individual's illness or disease state. Caregivers providing enteral nutrition at home require dependable, high medical grade feeding bags, pump sets and irrigation supplies to ensure their patients and loved ones receive the right nutrients prescribed. Infants are another group that may have very specific nutritional needs that can be met with supplementation and enteral nutrition if unable to eat, swallow or digest.
