Therapeutic, Very-High-Protein Nutrition for Metabolic Stress
PIVOT 1.5 CAL is a very-high-protein, calorically dense, immune-enhancing enteral formula containing a peptide-based protein system, added arginine, structured lipids, fructooligosaccharides (scFOS), and elevated levels of antioxidants for use in the metabolically stressed, immunosuppressed patient.
1.5 Cal/mL—concentrated calories for fluid-restricted patients
Very-high-protein—93.8 g/L (25% of calories)—supports protein synthesis, tissue repair, and wound healing
Immune support
– Arginine—13 g/L (3.5% of calories)—supports proliferation and function of immune cells –Glutamine (inherent)—6.5 g/L—for GI-tract integrity and energy for immune cells –Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA, 2.6 g/L; DHA, 1.3 g/L) to help modulate inflammation and support immune function1
Elevated levels of antioxidants—vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta-carotene—to help prevent free radical damage
Meets or exceeds 100% of the RDI for 24 essential vitamins and minerals in 1500 Cal (1000 mL)
Tolerance
, a unique blend of optimized macronutrients—protein, fat, and carbohydrate—to promote absorption and tolerance – Peptide-based protein system – Structured lipids1-3 – NutraFlora® scFOS®
