As with all health conditions, nutrition plays an important role. Specialized nutrition for GI disorders — like Peptamen® tube-feeding formulas — is designed to facilitate absorption and tolerance, avoid unpleasant side effects like diarrhea and vomiting, and to help give you the nutrition you need in order to promote better outcomes for your health.
Tube feeding is a way of providing nutrition to individuals who cannot take in adequate nutrients in the conventional way of eating and drinking by mouth. There are various reasons why people need tube feeding. There are also different locations on the body where a tube can be placed for tube feeding. Learn more about tube feeding.
Whey is one of the main forms of protein found in milk. The other form is casein. Soy protein is plant-based and comes from soybeans. Whey is extracted from milk during the pasteurization process. Whey protein doesn’t curdle and therefore empties more quickly from the stomach than casein, which may be helpful for someone who has a GI disorder and is experiencing reflux or vomiting. The source of protein in Peptamen® formulas is 100% whey protein.
Peptides are small pieces of protein that have been broken down or pre-digested into little fragments that are more easily absorbed and further digested in the intestinal tract. The protein in Peptamen® tube-feeding formulas is in the form of comparably small peptides, facilitating both digestion and absorption of protein.
