Vital 1.5kcal is suitable for people with disease-related malnutrition and malabsorption or for those who experience symptoms of poor feed tolerance. Vital 1.5kcal is peptide-based* and available both as a 200 ml oral nutritional supplement and as a 1000 ml Ready to Hang tube feed, both of which attach directly to Abbott giving sets.* Peptides are partially broken down proteins, which makes them easier to digest and absorb in the gut than whole proteins.
