KetoVie Differences
The Orphan Drug Act of 1988 defines a medical food as "a food which is formulated to be consumed or administered enterally (or orally) under the supervision of a physician and which is intended for the specific dietary management of a disease or condition for which distinctive nutritional requirements, based on recognized scientific principles, are established by medical evaluation." Medical foods are specially formulated foods intended for the dietary management of certain medical conditions with distinctive nutritional requirements, which cannot be managed by altering a normal diet. The term "medical food" does not include all foods recommended by a physician, or fed to sick patients. Medical foods must be uniquely formulated for particular dietary conditions created by certain diseases. Medical foods must be used under the supervision of a physician. Medical food must comply with Good Manufacturing Practice regulations and adhere to labeling practices for protection against major food allergens.
