| Concentration | Energy (kcal) | Protein (g) | % CHO | % Fat | Na (mg) | K (mg) | Ca (mg) | PO4 (mg) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 13 g powder/100 mL water (13%) | 66 | 1.3 | 7.2 | 3.6 | 18 | 69 | 51 | 24 |
| 15 g powder/100 mL water (15%) | 76 | 1.5 | 8.3 | 4.2 | 21 | 80 | 59 | 28 |
| 17 g powder/100 mL water (17%) | 86 | 1.7 | 9.4 | 4.7 | 27 | 90 | 67 | 31 |
| 20 g powder/100 mL water (20%) | 102 | 2.0 | 11.1 | 5.5 | 28 | 106 | 78 | 37 |
Effects of concentration on osmolality (mOsm/kg): 13% = 296; 15% = 339; 17% = 387; 20% = 451; ?upper limit = 500?
