Abstract
Fish oil is stored refrigerated under a nitrogen blanket until it is added to an enteral nutritional product during product manufacture. While the nutritional product is passing through a conduit the fish oil is added to the product at a uniform ratio such that the fish oil is evenly disbursed throughout the product, and thereafter the product is homogenized and heat treated.
