HINEX® E-Gel

HINEX E-Gel is a concentrated liquid diet whose compositions of each nutrient are based on the Dietary Reference Intakes for Japanese (2020).

HINEX® E-Gel

HINEX E-Gel is a food which can be used for persons whose standard calorie intake is 1200 to 1600 kcal per day. It is an oligomeric formula containing soybean peptides and collagen hydrolysate.

The product contains pectin as a source of dietary fiber (0.9 g per 100 kcal).

The product has the ability to change from a liquid to a jelly in a low pH environment. The product may not change from a liquid to a jelly in the case of low gastric acidity or decreasing the amount of gastric acid. The product supplies 110 mL of water per 100 kcal, providing a good source of hydration.

Fatty acid composition with good absorption efficiency

The omega-6/omega-3 ratio is 3:1. About 34% of the fatty acids in the product are medium chain triglycerides.

The product is an oligomeric formula containing amino acids and low molecular weight peptides which rarely change to curd. The product can be easily handled as a liquid nutrition product.
