Description
PFD 2 — Protein- & Amino-Acid-Free Base for Metabolic Nutrition
PFD 2 is a specialised, flavour-neutral powder designed for the dietary management of children and adults who have documented amino acid metabolic disorders. This product supplies calories, vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids — without added protein or protein-building amino acids — allowing healthcare teams to customise protein and amino-acid intake precisely.
Key Features & Benefits
- No protein, no amino acids (except non-protein taurine) — enabling tailored nutritional plans for individuals who must strictly control specific amino-acid intake.
- Complete micronutrient and energy foundation — offers a full complement of vitamins, minerals and essential fatty-acids in a base powder format that can be mixed with condition-specific amino acid mixtures or used to supplement calories when protein needs are already met.
- Customisable and flexible — the unflavoured/vanilla-scent powder can be mixed with flavouring or added into meals/beverages under clinician supervision.
- Suitable for children (from ~3 years) and adults under strict metabolic diet supervision.
How to Use
- Use only under the supervision of a metabolic-care specialist or dietitian.
- Measure the prescribed amount of powder, mix with the correct volume of water or permitted liquid as directed.
- If required, add the patient’s tailored amino-acid or protein mixture to the base. Serve immediately or refrigerate and use within the timeframe specified.
- Store unopened containers at room temperature in a dry place; follow label instructions for opened use.
Important Things to Know
- PFD 2 is not complete nutrition by itself — it lacks protein/building amino-acids, so other sources must be added as prescribed.
- It is intended for individuals with documented amino acid metabolic disorders, and must be used under medical supervision with regular monitoring and laboratory testing.
- Not suitable for use in standard diets or without metabolic-specialist oversight.
- Store and prepare according to instructions; improper use or omission of required amino-acid supplementation may lead to deficiency or metabolic imbalance.
