Introduction
Essential 2.25 Powder 1 kg is a high-calorie, high-protein medical nutrition supplement designed to meet the increased nutritional needs of individuals recovering from illness, surgery, or those unable to consume adequate calories through a regular diet. Its formulation provides 2.25 kcal per mL, offering concentrated energy in smaller serving volumes ideal for patients with poor appetite, swallowing difficulties, or fluid restrictions.
This specialised formula contains a balanced ratio of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats, including medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) that are easily digested and quickly converted into energy. It supports tissue repair, immune health, and muscle maintenance, making it suitable for individuals with catabolic conditions, malnutrition, or increased metabolic demands, such as those undergoing cancer therapy, post-operative recovery, or managing chronic illnesses.
Essential 2.25 is typically used under medical supervision as part of a therapeutic nutrition plan and can be consumed orally or through enteral feeding. With its balanced macro- and micronutrient composition, it ensures optimal nourishment even when food intake is limited.
Key Ingredients
Whey Protein Concentrate – Provides easily digestible, high-biological-value protein for muscle repair and tissue recovery.
Edible Fat (High Oleic Sunflower Oil, Maltodextrin, Emulsifier E322, Antioxidant E307) – Supplies healthy fats and energy while supporting heart health.
Maltodextrin & Fructose – Serve as carbohydrate sources to deliver sustained energy without spiking blood sugar levels.
MCT Fat Powder (Medium Chain Triglycerides, Corn Syrup, Antioxidant E307, Emulsifier E322) – Offers quick energy and supports nutrient absorption, especially in patients with fat digestion issues.
Additives (Flavour) – Enhance palatability.
Minerals & Vitamins – Provide essential micronutrients that maintain metabolic balance and support immunity.
(Contains milk and soy derivatives.)
