This is not a traditional dish, but a category of specialized nutritional products designed for infants with specific medical conditions or dietary needs. These plans typically involve formulas or modified foods based on extensively hydrolyzed proteins, amino acids, or specific carbohydrate sources, often developed in clinical settings.
These are nutritionally complete, high-calorie formulas designed to provide all essential nutrients for growth. They are carefully balanced in macronutrients (carbs, protein, fat) and are fortified with a full spectrum of vitamins and minerals, with a typical serving providing around 100-150 kcal.
