For increased needs for energy and protein or limited fluid tolerance
The metabolism is responsible for supplying our body with sufficient energy to maintain vital processes such as organ and cell function. Normally, the necessary energy is drawn from the nutrients through daily food intake. This is not always possible, as normal nutritional intake cannot be achieved, especially in old age, due to illness or eating disorders. The resulting malnutrition has serious consequences for the body and is accompanied by considerable weight loss and a lack of energy. Fresubin ® 2 kcal DRINK is a drinkable food to support diet management in the case of existing or impending malnutrition and in the case of food intake disorders. It can help to cover the body's calorie requirements and provide sufficient energy, especially in the case of increased energy and protein requirements due to metabolic diseases, intestinal diseases or difficulty swallowing (dysphagia). The high protein content and the abundance of vitamin D round off the food intake.

UNDERWEIGHT
According to the WHO, underweight is defined as a body mass index (BMI) of less than 18.5. It can have various causes, such as loss of appetite due to stress, illness or eating disorders. Low weight is accompanied by deficiency symptoms such as tiredness, increased susceptibility to infection and reduced performance. In the long term, it can even lead to muscle atrophy or bone loss (osteoporosis). Fresubin ® 2 kcal DRINK can help your body to meet its calorie needs while ensuring that you get enough nutrients.
FOR ILLNESSES & IN OLD AGE
There are numerous illnesses that can be responsible for excessive weight loss and malnutrition. These include, for example, intestinal diseases, metabolic diseases, cancer, swallowing disorders (dysphagia) or eating disorders. People with swallowing disorders may even have to consume liquid food because they can no longer eat normally. In old age, food intake plays just as important a role, but older people also often have difficulty chewing and swallowing food over time. For a simple and rich supplement or as a replacement for food intake, there is the liquid food Fresubin ® 2 kcal DRINK.
NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY
For our body, a lack of nutrients means that not all functions and processes can be carried out optimally. The basic energy supply comes from the so-called macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins and fats). They are essential for metabolism and are supplemented by micronutrients such as vitamins and minerals. Our body depends on the supply of fats, proteins and numerous micronutrients through food. However, normal food intake may not be possible for some people. This is where Fresubin ® 2 kcal DRINK comes in.
