EleCare^® is clinically documented to be hypoallergenic, meaning it is tolerated by at least 90% of subjects allergic to the protein in cow’s milk. Studies show EleCare is also well tolerated by children with multiple food protein allergies, as well as those who are sensitive to casein hydrolysate formulas. EleCare is manufactured under stringent standards and is tested using two different methods to ensure that the strict hypoallergenic nature of the formula is maintained.

Some children, due to various GI conditions, cannot properly digest the whole protein found in foods. Their doctors often recommend an elemental formula like EleCare^®, whose protein source is not whole protein but 100% free amino acids, the “building blocks” of protein. Amino acids require no additional digestion before being readily absorbed into the body.

Some conditions, such as short bowel syndrome, can interfere with your child’s body’s ability to efficiently absorb fat, protein, carbohydrate, and other nutrients. This is known as malabsorption. EleCare^®, however, has 33% of its fats in the form of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs)—fatty acids that are much easier to absorb, especially for children with malabsorption problems.

EleCare^® has the complete nutrition your child needs to grow. It provides a full spectrum of essential vitamins and minerals, including calcium and phosphorus for better, stronger bones. EleCare is the only amino acid-based medical food shown to support growth of infants from birth to 4 months.
