PeptiDutch ensures optimal nutrient absorption, supports energy and protein needs, and promotes overall health and recovery, addressing the unique nutritional challenges faced by these patients. This product is designed to deliver a high amount of essential amino acids, essential fatty acids, and balanced amounts of vitamins and minerals based on the latest EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) guidelines. The whey protein hydrolysate in PeptiDutch is developed based on a specialised technique providing a great taste, mouthfeel, and low viscosity. 

This product offers a range of benefits that can support various health conditions, particularly those related to malabsorption and maldigestion. Its unique properties make it a valuable nutritional support in clinical settings. Ensuring patients receive sufficient nutrients is crucial for maintaining their health, supporting recovery, and preventing malnutrition.

‍

Muscle Preservation: Whey protein hydrolysate is a pre-digested form of protein that is broken down into smaller peptides, making it easier to absorb and utilise by the body. This is particularly beneficial for patients with compromised digestion, as it reduces the burden on their digestive system while providing high-quality protein essential for muscle maintenance and repair. Protein helps mitigate muscle atrophy and supports overall physical strength, health, and recovery.

Optimal Fat Absorption: Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are more easily absorbed than long-chain triglycerides because they do not require bile salts for digestion and are directly transported to the liver via the portal vein. This makes MCT oil an excellent source of energy for patients with fat malabsorption issues. Including 60% of the total fat from MCTs ensures that patients receive adequate calories and essential fatty acids, supporting energy levels and overall health.

High Nutrient Density: The powder form of the nutritional product allows for a high concentration of essential nutrients in a small volume, which is ideal for patients who may have limited appetite or capacity to consume large amounts of food. This ensures that they receive the necessary nutrients without overwhelming their digestive systems.

Ease of Use and Flexibility: The powder form allows for easy preparation and can be mixed with various liquids to suit patient preferences. This flexibility enhances compliance and ensures consistent nutrient intake, which is critical for managing malabsorption and maldigestion.

‍Support for Immune Function and Recovery: Adequate intake of high-quality protein and easily absorbed fats supports immune function and recovery, helping patients better manage their condition and reduce the risk of complications.
