  • Aim
    • To present and discuss scientific evidence and clinical experience with Medical Nutrition as an integral part of treatment in several key disease areas.
  • What exactly is Medical Nutrition?
    • Medical Nutrition may be classified as:
      1. General Medical Nutrition: Complete nutrition for patients who need special support for recovery, for quality of life, or for better management of their condition. Examples of such patients include those who are recovering from a serious operation or a stroke as well as a supplement for patients who cannot get enough food intakes from normal meals.
      2. Disease Targeted Nutrition: Adapted nutrition to alleviate specific disease symptoms in patients, to address specialized dietary needs, or to delay the progression of disease. Examples of these conditions include diabetes, cancer, would healing, phenylketonuria and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
  • Julian Tonna, Marketing Director of NUTRICIA Advanced Medical Nutrition for the Middle East, said “Medical nutrition is not just a support but it is an integral part of disease management.  Benefits arising from medical nutrition include improved health status and a better quality of life such as catch-up growth in children and faster recovery for the sick. Furthermore, medical nutrition has been shown to lower the overall costs of healthcare due to fewer interventions and shorter hospital stays”.
  • Wael Hamza, General Manager of NUTRICIA Advanced Medical Nutrition said “Nutricia has been producing specialized medical nutrition products since 1905.  Nutricia is now part of Group Danone and more than EUR190 Million annually is invested in Research and Development.  This has led to the successful development of innovative products in various fields such as Cancer, Diabetes, Metabolic Disorders and Alzheimer’s disease. Our commitment to patients and healthcare professionals in the Middle East is to make our wide range of unique products available throughout the Region in as short a time as possible.”
