Gel Diets

Оглавление

Gel diets are designed using gelatin or some other gelling agent. They can be purchased as gels or as a dry powder to which warm water is added. Gel diets offer several advantages including relatively high protein levels, particularly if gelatin is the gelling agent chosen, and high moisture levels and therefore higher palatability than dry diets. An additional benefit is the ease of supplementation: supplements to enhance nutrient consumption and oral medications can easily be added. Gel diets generally sink (with some exceptions) and once prepared should be handled like raw fish, so preparation and storage space should be considered when using these types of diets.
