Its partially hydrolyzed protein (peptides plus free amino acids) is easier to digest than intact protein, making it a common choice when clinicians need a formula that supports absorption without sacrificing calorie density.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach 33.8 oz Ready to Hang carton (item 62715) delivers 1,200 calories at 1.2 calories per mL, so patients meet nutritional goals in less volume — helpful for those who are fluid-restricted or have limited tolerance for larger feeds. The vanilla-flavored formula is intended primarily for tube feeding but is also suitable for oral supplementation. The closed Ready to Hang system reduces handling and touch contamination, which is why it's favored in facilities and by home health providers managing multiple patients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBuyers typically ask how Vital AF compares to other formulas in the Vital line. The \"AF\" designation signals a lower-fluid, higher-calorie option at 1.2 Cal, positioned between the standard-strength \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/vital-10-cal\"\u003eVital 1.0 Cal\u003c\/a\u003e and the more concentrated \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/vital-15-cal\"\u003eVital 1.5 Cal\u003c\/a\u003e. It's also anti-inflammatory in design, containing a blend of fats including structured lipids and omega-3s to support patients with elevated nutritional needs.
