How EleCare Helps
The body needs protein for growth and maintenance of tissue. But some children are allergic to food protein, cannot thoroughly digest protein, or cannot absorb enough overall nutrition. Instead of whole or broken down proteins, Elecare is made of free amino acids — the building blocks of protein — and can help provide the nutrients needed for growth.
EleCare (also known as an elemental formula) is specially designed for infants and children with food allergies, eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders (EGID), short bowel syndrome (SBS), or malabsorption.
