EmerAid Piscivore
The first semi-elemental diet designed for the critically ill fish-eater. Developed by veterinarians and nutritionists, EmerAid Piscivore provides an easily absorbable and highly digestible blend of purified amino acids, hydrolyzed proteins, stabilized vitamins, dietary nucleotides to provide DNA and RNA precursors, plus simple carbohydrates for energy. Fish oil is added just before feeding so that dietary fat level can be varied from 5% to 35%.
The International Bird Rescue finds EmerAid Piscivore to be an excellent stabilization diet for debilitated sea birds. International Bird Rescue has fed EmerAid Piscivore to hundreds of birds from dozens of species including Charadriiformes (gulls, terms, alcids), Ciconiiformes (egrets, herons), Gaviiformes (loons), Pelecaniformes (pelicans, cormorants), Podicipediformes (grebes), and Procellariformes ( fulmars, shearwaters).
EmerAid Piscivore® may be fed as a sole or partial source of nutrition.
After months of feeding EmerAid Piscivore® to hundreds of seabirds from dozens of species, International Bird Rescue has recommended EmerAid Piscivore® as a superior diet in the stabilization of debilitated seabirds.
Features and Benefits
EmerAid Piscivore® is a fish-oil based diet with fat levels that can be modified from 5% to 30%. Fish oil is added to EmerAid powder in-house.
WARNING: EmerAid has been scientifically designed for extremely high digestibility. Avoid contamination. Handle product carefully. Keep dry. Use a clean, dry scoop. Do not cross contaminate with scoops used with non-EmerAid foods. Contamination can cause harmful bacterial growth.
Tube fed formula is absorbed best when the bird is warm and hydrated. In the adult bird, crop or stomach volume may be estimated as 50 ml/kg. In the debilitated patient or one with a past history of regurgitation, administer one-third to one-half of estimated stomach volume for the first feeding. Increase the volume fed over two to three feedings as long as feedings are well tolerated.
