Directions for Preparation and Use:
Suggested Intake
The quantity

condition of the individual and is to be determined by a
clinician or dietitian only. The
recommended quantity of Lanaflex is 0.8 g per kg bodyweight
per day. This quantity should be distributed over the
day in three or more portions taken along with meals. Do
not exceed three sachets per day in total.
Preparation
It is recommended that Lanaflex
is prepared at an approximate 1 to 4 dilution. In a screw
top container, add 60 mL (2 fl oz) of chilled water. Add
the contents of one sachet (15.8 g) and shake well until dissolved. This
will yield a final volume of 70 mL (2.3 fl oz). The
product is best served as a chilled drink and consumed immediately. If
taken in a more concentrated form, water or diluted drinks
should be taken immediately after Lanaflex.
