Enteral Nutrition and Role of Milk
The document discusses enteral nutrition and the role of milk. It notes that enteral nutrition maintains gastrointestinal integrity and function while reducing complications compared to parenteral nutrition. Milk is an important source of protein for enteral feeds. However, diarrhea is a common complication when using milk-based feeds, often due to issues with milk quality and handling. Using UHT milk can help address these issues by providing a safer, bacteria-free option that does not require boiling and has less risk of contamination. This allows for easier preparation and administration of enteral feeds containing the important nutrients in milk.
Enteral nutrition & Role of Milk
1. UHT milk processed through aseptic packaging can be safely used to prepare enteral feeds without the need for boiling or refrigeration. This processing eliminates bacteria and allows the milk to be stored unrefrigerated for months.
2. UHT milk retains most of its nutritional value with minimal vitamin degradation during high-temperature processing. It is free of preservatives and adulterants.
3. Using aseptically processed UHT milk for enteral feeds offers advantages over raw milk by reducing risks of infection and making feed preparation more convenient without compromising nutrition.
Weight Management
This document discusses weight management and obesity. It begins by explaining why weight is important for health, disease prevention, sports, appearance, and self-esteem. However, finding a balance between foods enjoyed and a desired appearance can be challenging. Many seek answers through dieting but diets often fail due to difficulty complying or regaining weight. Maintaining a healthy weight requires balancing calorie intake with expenditure. Fad diets and supplements are generally not effective long-term solutions for weight control. An individualized lifestyle approach focusing on healthy eating patterns and regular physical activity provides the best chance for sustainable weight management.
balanced diet
A balanced diet provides the right types and amounts of foods and drinks to maintain health. It includes major nutrients like proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Proteins help build muscle and boost immunity. Carbohydrates provide energy while fats transport vitamins and insulate organs. Vitamins and minerals support various bodily functions. A balanced diet along with physical activity and supplements can help ensure adequate nutrient intake and prevent deficiencies that impact health. Maintaining a positive attitude also contributes to overall well-being.
CHO COUNTING
This document discusses carbohydrate counting for managing diabetes. Carb counting involves following a meal plan that specifies grams of carbs per meal and snack, and using an insulin-to-carb ratio to determine insulin dosage. For those with type 1 diabetes, carb counting helps control blood sugar levels. Those with type 2 diabetes also need to count carbs to control portions and support weight loss through a balanced, limited sugar diet with regular physical activity. Common carb foods are listed along with serving size guidelines to estimate grams of carbohydrates from labels.
Uncovering the benefits of packaged milk
Packaged milk provides several benefits over loose milk. Loose milk poses health risks from pathogens due to contamination during the milking, storage, and transportation processes. Microbes can easily enter and multiply in loose milk. Packaged milk technologies like milk in tetra paks address these issues. Aseptically packaged milk is ultra heat treated and packed in a sterile environment, which kills bacteria and prevents contamination. This allows the milk to be stored at room temperature for up to 6 months without refrigeration while maintaining nutrients. Aseptically packaged milk is considered the highest quality option that ensures safety and intact nutrition suitable for children.
