Real-Food Ingredient Formulas
Real-food ingredient enteral nutrition formulas are made with blends of real foods like fruits, vegetables, grains and/or meats to deliver nutrition much like one would consume in a typical diet. Real-food ingredient formulas are best tolerated by patients who do not have malabsorption and who want greater dietary variety from familiar, food-based ingredients.

The Role of Real-Food Ingredient Formulas in Patient Care
Enteral nutrition formulas made with blends of real food ingredients give patients the nutrition they need in flavors that mimic typical traditional meals and snacks. Many patients on tube feeds say they prefer using blenderized, homemade foods.1 However, getting the right mix of nutrients and the best viscosity to deliver food safely can be quite challenging.
That’s why real-food ingredient formulas designed for tube feeding may be especially effective solutions. They offer patients safe, simple, and nutritious options made from the same types of ingredients their friends and family enjoy too. Their careful formulation also means they are typically well-tolerated.2 The real-food nutrition blends developed by Nestlé Health Science help children and adults meet their nutrient needs while allowing them to honor their personal values and dietary preferences, from plant-based eating to natural and organic diets.
And, healthcare professionals can trust they’re providing their patients with optimal nutritional support. Nestlé Health Science’s real-food ingredient formulas are evidence-based and provide both patients and their providers with a wide variety of real food, plant-based and organic options that they can feel good about.
