Portagen® is a Nutritional Powder for children and adults with defects in the intraluminal hydrolysis of fat (decreased pancreatic lipase, decreased bile salts); defective mucosal fat absorption (decreased mucosal permeability, decreased absorptive surface); and/or defective lymphatic transport of fat (i.e. intestinal lymphatic obstruction). It provides milk protein-based powder with medium-chain triglycerides for children and adults. Portagen® powder is not nutritionally complete. If used long term, supplementation of essential fatty acids and ultra-trace minerals should be considered. This powder can be used as a portion of the diet or as a beverage to be consumed with each meal. It contains readily digestible protein, fat, and carbohydrate and is iron-fortified. It is available as an unflavored powder that may be flavored or sweetened to taste.
Corn oil provides linoleic acid.
87% of fat from medium-chain triglycerides.
Medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) can help assure that children and adults with fat malabsorption receive an adequate energy supply.
MCTs are more easily and rapidly hydrolyzed and absorbed than long-chain fatty acids by persons with fat malabsorption.
