ABSTRACT

Healthy individuals consume solid food and receive nutrition by mouth through swallowing and then digesting it. However, individuals not able to obtain nutrition by swallowing can receive Enteral Nutrition or Tube Feeding. It comprises of tubal feeding to obtain the nutrients needed by the body. There is a wide range of enteral formulations available in the market like standard polymeric, oligomeric, organ-specific, therapeutic formulas, nutrition supplements and modules. They are also classified according to their composition, administration route and general or special purposes utilisation. These formulations must be in liquid form to obtain the same nutrients that are found in solid food. The composition of the formula generally affects recovery of the patient.
