Palatable Elemental Diet
The intervention is an exclusive oral palatable elemental diet administered for 14 consecutive days as the participant's sole nutritional intake. This amino acid-based formula was developed to provide an elemental diet with improved palatability and tolerability. Following completion of the 14-day diet period, participants will return to their usual diet and undergo 4 additional weeks of follow-up.
