I feel like 1800 kcal/day is not enough. Can I order additional packets?Updated 2 months ago

It's important to remember that the nutrients in an elemental diet are absorbed more efficiently than calories and nutrients from regular food. When consuming regular, solid food anywhere from 10-30% of the calories are burned by the digestive process, itself. This means consuming 1800 kcal of an elemental diet is actually the equivalent of consuming MORE than 1800 kcal of food. Additionally, the patients in our clinical trial felt adequately nourished with ~1800 kcal/day of elemental diet. Your health care provider or nutritionist should advise the appropriate amount of calories you should be consuming daily to meet your needs based on factors like your height, weight, etc. If your health care provider has advised that you consume more than 1800 kcal/day of elemental diet, we recommend ordering a one week plan or maintenance plan in addition to supplement your order. Unfortunately, we cannot place orders for individual sachets of shakes.
