ENGLEWOOD, N.J Oct. 8, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- Medical Nutrition USA, Inc. (OTCBB:MDNU) announces the introduction of Pro-Stat(tm)101, a unique concentrated protein liquid for the Long-Term Care industry. The product provides an alternative to powdered protein supplements.
Pro-Stat(tm)101 offers the highest concentration of protein in the smallest serving size -- 15 grams of protein, and 101 calories, in a single 30ml (1 oz.) serving. The product contains 20 amino acids, and helps promote positive nitrogen balance. Pro-Stat(tm)101 can be administered as a medication pass supplement, added to tube feeding formulas, or used as a food fortifier. Its other advantages include reduced volume, hydrolyzed protein and clog free administration via feeding tubes. Pro-Stat(tm)101 is a shelf-stable liquid, requiring no refrigeration before or after opening.
Intended for patients with increased protein needs, Pro-Stat(tm)101 has been shown effective in the treatment of pressure sores, muscle wasting, and unintended weight loss. A fruit-enzyme hydrolysis manufacturing process produces readily available amino acid peptides for superior absorption and assimilation.
Pro-Stat(tm)101 is available in 32oz. plastic bottles, packaged six per case. Single serving packaging is currently under development.
