Specialized nutrition support is often employed in critically ill patients who are unable to maintain volitional intake. The Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) and American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (A.S.P.E.N.) recently updated guidelines for the provision of nutrition support in critically ill patients. The purpose of this review is to summarize key changes from the previous guidelines as they relate to recently published literature, which will aid the hospital pharmacist in optimizing nutrition support therapies in the critical care setting.

Milk is a nutrient-rich liquid produced by mammals, offering various health benefits due to its composition of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. Beyond traditional nutritional aspects, recent research has focused on extracellular vesicles (EVs) found in milk and their potential health benefits, especially for gastrointestinal (GI) health. Milk-derived EVs have been shown to influence gut microbiota, promote gut barrier integrity, support tissue repair and regeneration, modulate immune responses, and potentially aid in managing conditions like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colorectal cancer.
