Join us at Nestlé Health Science Webinar on The Emerging Trend of Blended Diets; Sharing Best Practice Amongst Healthcare Professionals

Tuesday 30 June 2020 I 19:00 – 20:15pm (CET).

nestleThis free webinar dives into the emerging trend of blended diets for enteral feeding. There is some evidence to suggest that blended diets, used solely or in combination with commercially available enteral feeds, can have a number of benefits for children such as a reduction in GI symptoms or improved overall physical and developmental health.

Our speakers will discuss how blended diets may change the way we think about tube feeding and how things compare in the US, who are one step ahead when it comes to blended diets and food-based formulas. We’ll hear about the positive move made by the British Dietetic Association in their updated guidance on blended diets and we’ll learn about the growing evidence for a newly available prescribed feed that contains food-derived ingredients.
