Nestle HealthScience Peptamen Whey Peptide Diet — Nutritionally Complete for Impaired GI Function with Nutrition
Nestle HealthScience Peptamen Whey Peptide Diet is a specialised nutritional formula providing a complete and balanced diet for individuals experiencing impaired gastrointestinal function, malabsorption, or maldigestion. This isotonic, peptide-based diet contains 100% enzymatically hydrolysed whey protein and is rich in medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil, which are readily absorbed even when digestive capacity is compromised. The unique composition supports nutrient assimilation and aims to minimise gastrointestinal distress, making it suitable for conditions such as pancreatitis, chronic diarrhoea, and short bowel syndrome. This targeted formulation ensures essential macro and micronutrients are delivered effectively to support recovery and maintain nutritional status.
Indications:
Malabsorption/Maldigestion including: Pancreatitis; Chronic diarrhoea; Short Bowel Syndrome; Steatorrhoea; Gut atrophy; malabsorption associated with HIV/AIDS.
