Food for Special Medical Purposes based on Vitamins, Arginine, Glutamine, Calcium Hydroxymethylbutyrate (HMB), and Whey Proteins
Indications
Glutred is a food for special medical purposes indicated for the dietary management of subjects who need to repair damaged tissue (for example: pressure sores, burns, diabetic foot ulcers, mucositis, radiodermatitis, etc.), for the dietary management of cancer patients and, more generally, of subjects with severe immune deficiency.
The nutritional approach with Glutred is based on the synergistic action of its components: HMB counteracts the loss of plasma and muscle proteins; glutamine and arginine promote protein synthesis, the repair of lesions and the normal functioning of the immune system; Whey proteins contain a high concentration of branched-chain amino acids, particularly leucine, which is essential for activating protein synthesis. Vitamin D has recognized positive effects on immunomodulation and muscle function.
With sweeteners.
