Retrospective Cohort Study Demonstrates Tolerance and Adherence to Pea-Based Complete Enteral Formula When Transitioned from a Previous Hypoallergenic Product.

Background: Plant-based formulas have become increasingly popular due to their health benefits, environmental concerns, cultural beliefs, improved palatability, and decreased cost. A retrospective chart review of medically stable children transitioning from a hypoallergenic formula to a yellow pea protein plant-based formula (PPPBF) was included. This study aimed to assess gastrointestinal tolerance, weight changes, and adherence to receiving a unique PPPBF.
