  • 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.
