title: A protein dietary supplement for the severe dumping syndrome.
abstract: A protein dietary supplement has been developed for use in patients with severe dumping symptoms unresponsive to the usual medical regimens. The supplement, consisting entirely of casein and soy, is given three times a day and supplies 1,155 calories. This has not been associated with dumping symptoms or diarrhea. Three patients with severe malnutrition from the dumping syndrome were given the supplement over a six month period. They all evidenced rapid weight gain and maintained the weight gain even after the supplement was discontinued.
