Directions for Preparation and Use:
Maxamaid must be consumed in conjunction with natural protein, fluid
and other nutrients in quantities prescribed by a dietitian
or physician to meet protein and general nutrition requirements.
Fat, carbohydrate and low protein sources may be used to supply
needed calories and to fulfill essential fatty acid requirements.
Maxamaid intake will vary depending on the age, body weight and medical
condition of the individual. Intake is adjusted to maintain
normal growth and development.
Maxamaid is best served as a chilled drink with meals. Make a paste of
the prescribed amount of powder with a small volume of water.
For accuracy, Maxamaid should be weighed on a gram scale.
Gradually add sufficient water to yield the prescribed volume.
It is recommended that Maxamaid initially be reconstituted
at a 1 to 7 dilution (e.g. 100 g of Maxamaid and 700
mL of water). It can however be given in a more concentrated
form (e.g. at a 1 to 5 dilution or in paste form), according
to taste preferences. Additional fluids should then be offered
at the same time.
Reconstituted
formula should be stored in the refrigerator and used within
24 hours.
