Directions for Preparation and Use
The Phlexy-10
products must be consumed in conjunction with natural protein,
fluid and other nutrients in quantities prescribed by a physician
or dietitian to meet phenylalanine and general nutrition requirements.
Fat, carbohydrate and low protein sources may be used to supply
needed calories and to fulfill essential fatty acid requirements.
Intake of
the Phlexy-10 products will vary depending on
the age, body weight and medical condition of the individual.
Intake is adjusted to maintain normal growth and development.
One packet of the drink mix, one bar, 20 capsules or 10 tablets
provide 10 g of amino acids, equivalent to 8.33 g of protein.
The Phlexy-10
products do not contain vitamins, minerals, or trace elements.
It is essential that these nutrients are supplied separately.
Phlexy-Vits are available to be used as a supplement
to the Phlexy-10 System. One 7 g packet supplies
the majority of vitamins and minerals needed to meet the RDA of
individuals 11 years and older.
