Ingredients
Base Nutrients
All ElementGold Plus+ and ElementGold Plus+ Vegan flavours contain the same base nutrient blend including 13 Vitamins, 14 minerals and 10 free-form amino acids. A full list of ingredients is below. Please view the Nutrients page for more information about the base nutrient blend.
Added Protein
In addition to the free-form amino acids in the Base Nutritional Formula, ElementGold Plus+ has added protein to approach the maximum amount of protein that can be absorbed from one meal.
The protein added to ElementGold Plus+ is Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) which has been extracted using the Ion-Exchange method. This premium form of WPI is the best method available for maximising extraction of pure protein whilst leaving behind fat, lactose, casein and mineral traces. The effectiveness of the Ion-Exchange method is such that you would need to consume over 290 x 325ml glasses of ElementGold Plus+ to consume the same amount of lactose as you would consumet in a 325ml glass of regular milk.
Sweetener and Flavourings
Although some sugars are naturally present (in ingredients such as maltodextrin), ElementGold Plus+ Berry is additionally sweetened with dextrose and fructose.
Please note that SIBO sufferers and those looking for low FODMAP food should instead choose an unsweetened flavour.
Flavourings and colourings used in ElementGold are all naturally derived.
FSMP
ElementGold Plus+ Berry is compliant with the Food For Special Medical Purposes (FSMP) part of the Australian Food Standards Code, including being suitable as a sole source of nutrition when used under medical supervision.
How to Use
A standard serve of ElementGold Plus+ is 100g (4 scoops using the included scoop) of ElementGold powder shaken or blended with 250 mL of water. A 1kg tub of ElementGold Plus+ Berry contains 10 standard serves.
Each standard serve provides about* 1580 kJ (378 kcal) of energy. Where increasing energy intake is desirable, an oil such as flax seed oil can be added to boost a serving by around 540 kJ.
* Each flavour is slightly different due to protein and flavouring differences.
As ElementGold Plus+ Berry is nutritionally balanced food, the main factor to consider is how much energy you need.
