Enterocytes atrophy within hours of having no direct nutrient supply Fasting increases mucosal barrier break down and risks bacterial translocation Bacteria can enter the blood stream and result in sepsis Most gastrointestinal diets are too high in fat and protein for use within the first 24hrs

Microenteral Nutrition, Safe and Proven for Early Feeding Electrolytes

Feeding patients early and proactively with a combination of fluids, electrolytes, functional amino-acids and simple sugars supports enterocyte recovery.
