Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is an open label, non-randomized, interventional, single arm study.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Primary objective is to assess whether the MAG oil (monoacylglycerol oil) containing study formula is well tolerated and safe when used as an ONS in healthy adults and adolescents.

Secondary objectives:

1. Describe the incidence and characteristics of possible gastrointestinal intolerance symptoms
2. Describe changes in stool characteristics, specifically stool frequency and consistency
3. Describe changes in anthropometric parameters, particularly weight and body mass index (BMI)
4. Describe changes in blood parameters of lipid metabolism
5. Describe changes in hematological and serum biochemistry parameters
6. Describe daily ONS intake and assess dietary adherence to the study protocol
