Earlier medical nutrition solutions were meant for only to address malnutrition, but continued advancements in healthcare has led to the use of these medicated foods to complement drugs to treat various diseases such as diabetes, obesity, renal failure, pediatric malnutrition, sarcopenia and cancer. These medicated nutritional products are segmented into pediatric nutrition, elderly nutrition, sports nutrition and parenteral nutrition. Some of the commercially available medical nutrition products are Elecare for kids and EAS for athletes marketed by Abbott Nutrition and Souvenaid and FortFit marketed by Nutricia. Parenteral nutrition is feeding a person by means of intravenous, it is given only when a patient is on hemodialysis and is unable to manage adequate nutrition. Usually glucose, proteins, electrolytes and vitamins are administered through parenteral route.
The global market for medical nutrition is growing at a steady rate worldwide.
