{"title":"BCAD 2","description":"\u003ch1\u003eBCAD 2 MSUD Oral Supplement\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBCAD 2 is a medical food formulated specifically for the dietary management of \u003cstrong\u003eMaple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD)\u003c\/strong\u003e in children and adults. MSUD is an inherited metabolic disorder in which the body cannot properly break down the branched-chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine. Left unmanaged, these amino acids build up to toxic levels, so lifelong nutritional therapy under the guidance of a metabolic dietitian or physician is essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eBCAD 2 MSUD Oral Supplement (1 lb, item 891501)\u003c\/strong\u003e provides protein equivalent, energy, vitamins, and minerals while omitting the branched-chain amino acids that people with MSUD must strictly limit. It is designed for individuals who have outgrown infant formulas and need a nutritionally complete base to build a controlled diet around, allowing families and caregivers to meet daily protein and calorie targets without overloading on the amino acids the body cannot metabolize.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuyers of BCAD 2 typically want to know how it fits into a broader metabolic feeding plan. It can be mixed as a beverage or incorporated into recipes, and the precise amount used should always be calculated with a healthcare team based on blood amino acid levels, growth, and individual tolerance. Because MSUD management shifts as a child grows, BCAD 2 is often used as a step up from the earlier-stage formulation once nutritional needs change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor families managing an infant or earlier-stage protocol, we also carry \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/bcad-1\"\u003eBCAD 1\u003c\/a\u003e, which serves the same MSUD population at a different life stage. Keeping both on hand makes it easier to transition smoothly as your dietitian adjusts the plan. Always store the powder as directed, observe use-by dating, and prepare each serving according to your prescribed regimen to keep amino acid intake consistent.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"bcad-2-msud-oral-supplement","title":"BCAD 2 MSUD Oral Supplement","description":"BCAD 2 is an iron-fortified medical food powder that is free of the branched chain amino acids isoleucine, leucine, and valine for the dietary management of children and adults with maple syrup urine disease (MSUD)\n\nThe product provides all other essential amino acids as well as nonessential amino acids, carbohydrate, fat, essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals\nLactose-free\nVanilla scent\nCan be easily modified with preferred flavor enhancers\nMixes easily and stays in suspension well","brand":"BCAD 2","offers":[{"title":"Each (1)","offer_id":53141845541180,"sku":"M142215","price":117.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Case (6)","offer_id":53141845508412,"sku":"M142214","price":626.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/3735\/5324\/files\/09afec96-a646-bf53-fe8b-e1695db6c3bd_m_6c61668b-d536-42be-9927-226dec5396c8.jpg?v=1781860620"}],"url":"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/bcad-2.oembed","provider":"Honest Medical","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
