Recommended Precautions :

Once combined, KetoCal 4:1® may separate. Simply shake or stir the mixture before serving. If using a feeding tube, it should be flushed with warm water (37°C) before feeding. It is recommended to flush the tube with warm water between each feeding to avoid blockage.

It is advised not to use boiling water when preparing the formula. Do not boil or microwave formula.

Testimonials

We were recommended the ketogenic diet… Chloe has now been on the diet for 3 years and has been seizure-free ever since… it has exceeded all expectations.

Chloe’s mother

We started out slowly by using her formula mixed with KetoCal® 4:1 powder. Then we kept adding more KetoCal® while decreasing the other formula until she was getting all KetoCal… I started noticing a decrease in seizures.*

Leah**

Approximately 10-15% of individuals will be symptom free, 1 in 3 will have 90% symptom improvement, and 50% will have at least a 50% improvement in symptoms. Individual results may vary.

*Individual results may vary.
