| BENEFITS |
 |
Milk-based, complete and balanced nutrition from a balanced caloric distribution of protein, fat and carbohydrate (12% protein; 44% fat; 44% carbohydrate) to meet a growing child's nutritional needs. |
| |
|
Well-absorbed fat blend containing high source of oleic sunflower oil, soy oil and medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs).
Sunflower and soy oils are beneficial to children because they provide both monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, are rich in the essential fatty acids linoleic acid and linolenic acid (which are required for the natural synthesis of DHA and AA for brain development) and contain no cholesterol. |
| |
|
MCTs comprised 20% of the fat blend and provide the benefit of a form of fat that more readily absorbed and easily digested to produce energy and improve vitamin and mineral absorption. |
| |
|
Dual Carbohydrate (a blend of two carbohydrates) in PediaSure is digested and absorbed completely without exceeding the threshold of intolerance. |
| |
|
Caloric density of 1 kcal per ml (50% more than normal growing up milk) to meet the increased energy needs. |
| |
|
Calcium: phosphorus ratio that is conformed to AAPCON (American Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Nutrition) recommendations to support skeletal growth and maintenance of mineral balance. |
| |
|
Fortified with carnitine and taurine.
Carnitine is important for the fatty metabolism.
Taurine plays a key role in bodily function.
It facilitates retinal function and normal bile acid metabolism and may support normal brain development.
|
| |
