A feeding tube is a device that's inserted into your stomach through your abdomen. It's used to supply nutrition when you have trouble eating.

The three methods for inserting a G-tube are percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy, laparoscopic technique & an open surgical procedure.

The ideal position for tube feeding is sitting up. However, if this isn't possible prop yourself, or the person you care for, up on at least two pillows to lie at an angle of 45° or greater and remain in this position during tube feeding and for up to 30-60 minutes after tube feeding - it is not safe to tube feed while lying flat.

Bottled water retailers are well aware of the quality of our nation's tap water in fact, at least 24 percent of the bottled water we drink is actually filtered tap water. Pepsi's Aquafina and Coke's Dasani, the top bottled water brands in the country, are two of the brands that bottle filtered municipal water.

Occasionally, some people will experience challenges when adjusting to tube feeding. While it's important to be aware of potential tube feeding problems, it's important to remember that these problems can largely be anticipated and prevented.

Most tube feeds are not flavoured, however there are some small volume tube feeds that are flavoured. Oral nutritional supplements, available in small bottles, are used for bolus feeding and come in a variety of flavours like vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate.
