Description

Nutricia Nutrini Energy is a ready-to-use, nutritionally complete, high‑energy paediatric enteral tube feed providing 1.5 kcal/mL (150 kcal/100 mL). It is fibre‑free and unflavoured for flexible use when a fibre‑free regimen is required. Formulated with a paediatric nutrient profile (higher fat, lower protein/iron than adult formulas), it is intended for children 1–6 years or 8–20 kg and may be used as a sole source of nutrition within this range. Very low lactose (<0.025 g/100 mL). Enteral use only under medical supervision. Approximate osmolality: 390 mOsmol/kg H2O.

Key features

• Whey‑protein enriched for tolerance and balanced amino acid supply (milk proteins: sodium caseinate + whey protein concentrate).
• Macronutrient distribution per 100 mL: protein ~11% energy (4.0 g), carbohydrate ~49% (18.5 g), fat ~40% (6.7 g).
• Long‑chain omega‑3s included: DHA 53.1 mg and EPA 12.6 mg; omega‑6:omega‑3 ratio ≈ 3.8:1.
