Prother 10 Envelopes 10 G Prother

Description
High-protein food for special medical purposes, consisting of undenatured whey proteins with high biological value (DIF16WPI), indicated for the dietary management of subjects with loss of skeletal muscle mass (sarcopenia) due to protein malnutrition, aging and/or chronic diseases. Sarcopenia requires the intake of high quantities of proteins, however, the conditions in which it occurs are accompanied by loss of appetite, feeding difficulties and/or malnutrition. Whey protein isolate is particularly appropriate in this context due to the high concentration (≥ 92.5%), high biological value of the proteins provided and their digestibility, which optimize absorption, thus promoting an increased protein intake in the diet. Undenatured proteins represent a concentrated source of bioavailable cysteine, a precursor and conditioning nutrient for the synthesis of glutathione, whose cellular concentration is reduced in conditions of protein deficiency. Since glutathione is involved in protein synthesis, a higher intake of its precursor is particularly appropriate in the dietary management of sarcopenia. PROther is indicated for oral and enteral nutrition with SNG and/or PEG of patients with chewing and swallowing problems.

Ingredients

How to use
It is recommended to take 1 or 2 sachets per day. Given its solubility, enteral administration through SNG and/or PEG of 1-2 sachets of PROther diluted in 500-1,000 ml of water is permitted, based on the patient's water and protein needs, alone or in combination with other foods suitable for enteral administration, according to the doctor's judgment.
For oral administration, pour 1 or 2 sachets of PROther into a glass. Add 150-200 ml of water or any other beverage (milk, tea) as long as it is cold or, in any case, at room temperature. Mix briefly (without using a blender) and drink immediately.
