  • Enteral feeding may become necessary when you can’t eat enough calories to meet your nutrition needs or if you physically can’t eat due to various conditions leading to malnourishment, weight loss and very serious health issues.
Some of the conditions that can contribute to enteral feeding are:
  • Cancers (neck, throat, stomach, intestine)
  • Stroke and paralysis
  • Other Neurological and muscular disorders like MS, Cerebral Palsy etc.
  • Critical injury to vital organs.
  • GI dysfunctions like Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, bowel obstruction

Types of Enteral Feeding include:
