Abstract
The present invention relates to an enteral composition containing phospholipids, triglycerides and cholesterol or precursors thereof, which can be used in the treatment of sepsis. With the composition of the invention the natural level of chylomicrons is maintained, in particular in gut associated lymphoid tissue (GALT), which ensures that most of LPS and/or LTA which are released in the body can be neutralized, substantially decreasing the risk of locally occurring high levels of LPS and/or LTA and thus sepsis.
