Maltocal19
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| is an easily soluble supplementary food for a balanced energy enrichment of the diet with carbohydrates (maltodextrin): |
-
high energy supply in the form of easily available carbohydrates
- low osmotic effect (see information to the right)
- of pure vegetable origin, since derived from corn starch (GMO-free)
- gluten-free
- free from fructose, lactose, galactose, sucrose and protein
- from dietary fibre
- strictly low in sodium, low in electrolytes
- very well tolerated, even in high concentrations
- odourless and almost tasteless, low sweetness
- stable during baking and cooking
- no thickening or swelleing effect
Ingredients: Maltodextrin (Dextrose-equivalent 17 - 19.9)
Definition and Indication
Energy enriched diets - enhanced energy supply in the form of easily available carbohydrates:
- in pre- and post-operative situation to improve the nutritional status
- in short gut syndrome, pancreas resection, cystic fibrosis or anorexia
- in reduced fat tolerance
- hypoglycaemias of different origin for stabilising blood glucose level
Carbohydrate substitution:
- in fructose-, lactose-, sucrose indigestion or -intolerance
- in a low fibre diet, e.g. in case of acute inflammatory bowel disease
- in glycogenosis
Elemental diets, e.g. in disease related maldigestion and malabsorption conditions:
- Crohn's disease, colitis ulcerosa, coeliac disease or short bowel syndrome
- post-operative nutrition, tumour cachexia or radiotherapy, HIV/Aids
Liquid feeds and tube feeds:
- in disorders where normal food supply is too difficult, impossible or inefficient, such as post-operative nutrition, impaired digestive function
Low protein and/or elektrolyte defined nutrition:
- e.g. for securing energy supply in order to avoid gluconeogenesis in patients with renal failure, phenylketonuria or urea cycle disorders
- low potassium, high energy supplementary food in haemodialysis
Dosage
The daily amount of MaltoCal19 should be determined in a diet plan considering the individual energy requirements of the patient. Ideally the daily amount is distributed in several single portions.
Standard dilution
- 25 g MaltoCal19 (1 levelled hospital scoop) in 100 ml drinking water
Osmolality of the standard dilution
- 240 - 280 mosmol/kg drinking water
- Thus the standard dilution acts as isotonic in the gastrointestinal tract
