About Medtrition Gelatein Plus High-Protein Gelatin
Gelatein Plus is a oral nutrition protein, great tasting gelatin in three delicious flavors: Cherry, Lemon and Pineapple. Perfect for a clear liquid diet or simply as a refreshing high protein treat. Gelatein Plus combines the efficiency of fast acting whey protein isolate and pre-digested hydrolyzed collagen to give the body the protein it needs for pre-and post operative surgery, wound healing and protein malnutrition.
Each 4 fl oz. serving provides twice as much protein as that found in the typical milk-based supplement, and the fruit flavors provide a pleasant change of taste for your patients, improving compliance and patient satisfaction.
