Novasource GI Forte 500ml

Novasource GI Forte 500ml is a ready-to-use, high-energy liquid nutritional supplement designed to support gastrointestinal tolerance and provide comprehensive nutrition when oral intake is insufficient. Formulated for people with compromised digestion or malabsorption, this enteral feed delivers concentrated energy and balanced electrolytes in a compact 500ml bottle — ideal for tube feeding or oral supplementation under clinical guidance.

Key Benefits

  • High-energy, ready-to-use 500ml formula for concentrated nutrition needs
  • Peptide-based and MCT-enriched composition to aid digestion and absorption
  • Balanced electrolytes, vitamins and minerals to support daily nutritional requirements
  • Suitable for enteral feeding (oral or tube) when directed by a healthcare professional
  • Compact single-bottle format reduces preparation time and contamination risk
Ingredients and Materials

Typical ingredient highlights (refer to product label for full and exact formulation):

  • Water
  • Carbohydrates (maltodextrin or equivalent)
  • Protein hydrolysate/peptides (for improved gastrointestinal tolerance)
  • Fat blend including medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) for easier absorption
  • Vitamins and minerals to meet micronutrient needs
  • Electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium, calcium)

Allergen notice: Check the bottle label for specific allergens (e.g., milk, soy). Always review the official ingredient list before use.

How to Use

Use Novasource GI Forte 500ml only as directed by a healthcare professional. Typical guidance:

  • Oral use: Sip or drink as tolerated to complement dietary intake or as prescribed.
  • Tube feeding: For enteral administration via appropriate feeding sets and protocols; follow hospital or care-team instructions for rate and volume.
  • Ready-to-use: No dilution required unless advised by a clinician.

Handling: Use aseptic technique when connecting to feeding systems. After opening, refrigerate and use within the time indicated on the product label (commonly 24 hours). Discard unused contents after the recommended period. Do not use for parenteral (intravenous) administration.

Who It’s For

Novasource GI Forte is formulated for adults under medical supervision who require concentrated enteral nutrition and have compromised gastrointestinal function or difficulty with standard polymeric feeds. It may be appropriate for:

  • Patients with malabsorption or chronic diarrhoea where peptide-based formulas are preferred
  • Post‑operative or critically ill patients requiring enteral support
  • Adults on tube feeding or those needing energy-dense oral supplements

Always consult a dietitian or physician to determine suitability for infants, children or patients with specific medical conditions.
