Malnutrice - podvýživa

Malnutrition is insufficient nutrition in terms of both total intake of energy from food and certain components, such as protein. The causes of malnutrition are conditions linked to reduced consumption (e.g. loss of appetite in oncological diseases or old age), increased loss of nutrients (e.g. with acute inflammatory conditions) or increased metabolic requirements (e.g. infection disease, chronic inflammatory disease). As the above demonstrates, we come across malnutrition in both acute or chronic illness and in everyday life, such as in the elderly. However, it is always important to address the problem. Tackling it follows a clear diagnosis of malnutrition whether from BMI, body weight development (or a decrease), or blood indicators. There are two ways of improving nutritional health. The first is adjusting the normal diet (including its components) and the second is using dietary supplements in the form of sip feeds.  These products (sip feeds) have clearly defined amounts of all nutrients and exist in different flavours. It is always a good idea to consult a nutrition specialist about how to address it, whether a doctor or nutritional therapist.

In the words of a nutritional specialist:

The optimum version for malnutrition for example, in the elderly with low BMI or a major reduction in body weight is nutrego FORTE. One 330 ml bottle of nutrego FORTE contains 667 kcal and 28 grams of protein, so, for instance, a lunch of a chicken schnitzel at 150 g and 200 g of potatoes (as regards energy and protein). Sipping nutrego Forte between meals can promote improved nutritional health and strengthen the body as a whole.

Nutrego FORTE can also be used in patients to improve their nutritional state before/after an operation.
