Blenderized Tube Feeding FAQs

  • Blenderized tube feeding (BTF) refers to foods and liquids that are blended and pushed through a feeding tube. This is an alternative to using packaged enteral formulas to feed your child.

    The use of BTF has become increasingly popular in recent years. One major reason parents choose to use blended tube feeding is for increased control over what is going into their child’s body. The problem is that without proper planning, you risk not achieving complete nutrition for your child.

    With the full support of our team and a dietitian at your side, transitioning to homemade blended tube recipes can be a safe, fulfilling way to feed your child.

    • Moving from a medicalized feeding approach to a more natural nurturing one.

    • Controlling for food allergens and sensitivities.

    • Selecting foods that are whole, organic, and non-GMO.

    • Improved GI tolerance, less retching, and bowel regularity.

    • Increased likelihood to wean from feeding tube.

    • Lower costs compared to commercial products.

    • The ability for your child to consume family foods and be included in family mealtimes.

    • The ability for your child to participate in food selection for use in their daily blend.
