The use of this novel high-protein energy-dense formula with high-quality protein source (≥2.1 kcal/mL; 32 g protein/200 mL; 60% whey protein) overcome common practical challenges in the medical nutrition therapy of patients with DRM, either because these patients require a highly concentrated formulation to meet nutritional requirements due to loss of appetite, lack of interest in food, and high caloric-protein needs due to disease, and a large quantity and quality of protein to optimize muscle recovery due to sarcopenia, common in patients with moderate-severe malnutrition.
