Description

Encala® is a specialized, plant-based medical food formulated to help individuals with CF and other exocrine pancreatic disorders better absorb dietary fat and fat-soluble nutrients. Mixing Encala® into meals, snacks, or beverages (such as smoothies) can increase your overall intake of healthy fat, calories, essential fatty acids, and key vitamins, supporting growth, nutritional health, and improved quality of life.

Advantages 

  • Boosts Fat Absorption: Each 2-tablespoon serving (18.4 g) adds 100 calories (about 8 minutes of running), 6 g of healthy fat helping the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins A and K more effectively.
  • Clinically Tested: Specifically developed and studied in patients with cystic fibrosis, Encala has been proven safe, well-tolerated, and effective at improving growth, weight gain, and fatty acid and fat-soluble vitamin status.

Essential Nutrients Included:

  • Essential Fatty Acids (linoleic & Alpha Linolenic Acid): Support proper body functioning. 
  • Choline: Supports muscle health and contributes to overall wellness and is important during pregnancy and lactation.
  • Taste-Neutral & Versatile: Encala is gluten-free, non-GMO, and plant-based, with no noticeable taste. It is easy to mix into a variety of foods and drinks without altering flavor.  

Who Should Use Encala®?

Encala® is recommended for adults and children over three months of age. It should be used under medical supervision and is not intended for infant formula or breast milk. It may be mixed with infant formula or breast milk to increase caloric content from 20Kcal/oz to up to 29Kcal/oz. 

How Does Encala® Work?

  1. Direct Nutritional Enhancement: Encala directly adds easily absorbed calories and essential fatty acids to your meals, boosting their nutritional value. 
  2. Improved Nutrient Uptake: Encala directly provides healthy easily absorbed fats and also increases the absorption of the fats from your regular diet, making every bite more beneficial.
