Description
Polycal — Concentrated Carbohydrate Powder for High-Energy, Low-Volume Nutrition
Polycal is a specialized, unflavored powdered carbohydrate supplement that provides a highly concentrated energy source in the form of maltodextrin. Designed for people aged 1 year and older who require high-energy, low-fluid or modular diets—such as those with malnutrition, fluid restriction, or increased metabolic needs—Polycal supports dietary intake when normal food and drink are insufficient.
How to Use:
- Mix the prescribed amount of Polycal powder into a beverage or food until completely dissolved. It can be incorporated into hot or cold foods. Use the provided scoop or a scale for accurate measurement. Prepared mixtures should be used within 2 hours or refrigerated and used within 24 hours.
Important Things to Know:
- This is not a complete nutrition formula and must be used under medical supervision as part of a broader diet.
- Not intended for infants under 1 year of age.
- Because it is a carbohydrate‐rich supplement, fluid intake, electrolyte balance, and individual dietary needs should be monitored by a healthcare provider.
- The powder is neutral-tasting, gluten-free (less than 5 ppm), lactose-low (<2 g/100 g), and designed to dissolve easily without altering the flavor or texture of foods or drinks.
