Feeding to a person with a nasogastric tube, usually called an enteral diet, should be done with foods well mashed in the blender and strained, so that they are liquid in consistency. In addition, juices should be made in the centrifuge. There are also ready-to-eat meals, such as Fresubin, Cubitan, Nutrirink, Nutren or Diason, for example, which can be bought in pharmacies in powder form, costing up to 60 reais or in prepared 200ml units that can cost between 15 and 30 reais
