Taking care of yourself or a loved one who needs extra nutritional support can feel overwhelming—but it doesn’t have to be. Whether you’re a patient looking for better ways to meet your daily nutritional needs or a caregiver searching for trusted tube feeds and supplements, you’re in the right place. 

At Platinum Health Supply, we understand that good nutrition is essential for healing, energy, and overall wellbeing. That’s why we offer a trusted range of Nutricia and Nestlé products, designed to make proper nutrition simple, accessible, and stress-free. 

The Power of Nutritional Supplements 

Eating well isn’t always enough. Medical conditions, recovery, or dietary restrictions can leave gaps in nutrition. Supplements help by providing essential vitamins, minerals, protein, and nutrients to keep you and your loved ones strong and energised. 

Who Benefits from Nutritional Supplements? 

• People recovering from surgery or illness who need additional nutrients for faster healing. 
• Older adults who have difficulty absorbing enough nutrients from food alone. 
• Individuals with digestive disorders that make it hard to get adequate nutrition. 
• Those with restricted diets due to allergies, chronic illnesses, or swallowing difficulties. 
• Caregivers looking for easy, reliable ways to improve a loved one’s nutrition. 

Choosing the Right Supplements 

From high-protein formulas for muscle maintenance to vitamins that support immune health, selecting the right supplement is important. Need a place to start? Check out our Oral Nutrition Collection, where you’ll find trusted brands that make meeting nutritional needs easier than ever. 

Tube Feeds: Making Nutrition Simple and Stress-Free 

For some, traditional eating just isn’t an option. That’s where tube feeding comes in—it provides complete, balanced nutrition directly to the stomach or intestines, ensuring that essential nutrients are delivered safely and efficiently. 

Who Needs Tube Feeding? 

• Patients with neurological conditions like stroke, ALS, or Parkinson’s who have difficulty swallowing. 
• Individuals with digestive disorders who struggle with nutrient absorption. 
• Children with medical conditions that require long-term nutritional support. 
• People undergoing cancer treatment who experience appetite loss or difficulty eating. 
• Seniors with frailty or muscle loss who need extra nutritional care. 

Why Tube Feeding Can Be a Game Changer 

• Ensures complete, balanced nutrition when eating isn’t possible. 
• Reduces the risk of malnutrition and unintentional weight loss. 
• Helps with faster recovery by providing key nutrients consistently. 
• Takes the stress out of mealtimes for caregivers and patients alike. 

What Research Says About Tube Feeding 

A study published in the Journal of Palliative Medicine found that physicians expect tube feeding to provide benefits such as improved nutrition, hydration, prolonged life, and easier medication administration. However, expectations can sometimes differ from real-world outcomes. While tube feeding is essential for individuals who can’t consume food orally, it’s crucial to ensure the right feeding method is chosen based on medical needs. 

For patients with acute stroke, neurodegenerative diseases, or head and neck cancer, tube feeding is often a lifesaving intervention, but research also highlights the importance of proper monitoring and personalised nutrition plans to ensure the best possible health outcomes. 

Finding the Right Tube Feeding Solution 

Selecting the right tube feeding product is crucial to comfort and long-term health. Platinum Health Supply offers a variety of high-quality feeding tubes and accessories, including: 

• Mic-Key G 20Fr Low Profile Balloon Gastrostomy Feeding Tube With ENFit Extension Set – A reliable, low-profile option for enteral feeding. 
• MIC G Balloon Gastrostomy Feeding Tube with Enfit Connectors - 2 Gastric Ports – A great choice for secure, effective enteral nutrition.

Not everyone requires the same type of nutritional support, which is why there are specialised formulas for people with specific conditions. Whether it’s a diabetes-friendly supplement, a high-calorie formula, or a thickened liquid for swallowing difficulties, there’s a solution for every need. 

Who Benefits from Specialised Nutrition? 

• People managing chronic illnesses like diabetes, kidney disease, or gastrointestinal disorders. 
• Those who require weight gain or muscle support after significant weight loss. 
• Patients recovering from major surgery or treatment who need extra nutrients for healing. 
• Children with medical or developmental conditions requiring tailored nutritional care. 

How Specialised Nutrition Can Help 

• Diabetes-friendly formulas help maintain stable blood sugar levels. 
• High-calorie supplements support weight gain and muscle preservation. 
• Enteral feeding solutions ensure optimal nutrient intake for those with complex medical needs.
