  • Publication number: 20180110241
    Abstract: Described herein are liquid nutritional formulas, such as liquid ketogenic formulas, useful, for example, for management of intractable epilepsy. A ketogenic diet is a high-fat, adequate-protein, low-carbohydrate diet whose consumption shifts metabolism from glycolysis (the metabolism of carbohydrates) and favors ketosis, the metabolism of fatty-acid derived ketone bodies. A ketogenic diet is useful as an alternative therapeutic option for patients with intractable epilepsy and is often the sole source of nutrition, particularly for infants and children.

  • Publication number: 20160366916
    Abstract: Described herein is a nutrition formula, which is a powder that comprises components described herein and can be combined with a liquid, such as water, to produce a milk-like beverage for the dietary management of phenylketonuria (PKU). The powder and resulting beverage have a balanced amino acid profile suitable for dietary management of individuals who have PKU and are lower in calories than powder and milk-like beverages that comprise whey protein, such as cGMP, presently available for use in dietary management of PKU.

  • Publication number: 20060147882
    Abstract: A method for creating an educational product, or training experience, is herein described. The training experience includes a learning experience to impart knowledge on training experience participants, a networking experience to allow training experience participants to interact with a relevant peer group during training, a guest experience providing a defined level of interest and focus by participants during the training experience, and an enculturation experience to integrate training experience participants into the culture of the sponsoring organization. The training experience may be created through an assessment phase, a planning phase, a design phase, and an implementation stage, with subsequent product evaluation and revisions. Various milestones and checkpoints may be used to ensure that a level of phenomenality is achieved by the final training experience.
