What are Medical Foods?
-----------------------
The term “Medical Food” is defined by federal law. In order to be
a medical food, the product must meet certain criteria defined by
the law. Generally speaking, Medical Foods are products that are
used under the supervision of a physician and that are designed
and intended for the dietary management of specific diseases or
conditions that cannot be managed simply with the modification of
a normal diet.
Medical Foods are specially formulated products, some of which
may be designed to help manage very specific diseases or
conditions, when the distinctive tional needs of the patient
cannot be met with regular foods alone. For example, certain
products may be specifically formulated to address the
tional needs of patients with renal disease or a specific
trointestinal impairment. To be a medical food, the product
must address the dietary requirements created by certain diseases
or conditions, in order to allow patients to receive the
ents they need to help manage their conditions. As should be
clear, the term “Medical Foods” does not include all foods fed to
patients or all foods that may be recommended by a
physician.
Medical foods may be consumed orally or via a feeding tube, also
known as enteral tion. As you review the products on this
website, please be careful to note whether oral consumption is
recommended or whether it is primarily used for tube feeding.
Importantly, Medical Foods should be used under the supervision
or direction of a physician. Medical Foods are not intended to
treat, cure, prevent, mitigate or have a direct impact on disease
in a manner similar to drugs or other medical s. Ask
your physician whether a Medical Food is recommended for the
dietary management of a disease or condition you have.
