Summary

This study looks at how well children aged 1 to 16 tolerate and accept new nutritional feeds made from real food ingredients. The feeds are given through a tube or as a drink. Researchers will track stomach issues like pain, bloating, and nausea over 28 days. The goal is to see if these feeds are a safe and comfortable option for kids who need extra nutrition.
