c Expand All C Collapse All b Are your formulas vegan? Our formulas utilize Vitamin D3 in the form of cholecalciferol. D3 naturally synthesizes in your skin during exposure to sunlight and it’s also a commercially prepared supplement made from the lanolin retrieved from washing sheeps’ wool; therefore, it may not be considered vegan for some individuals based on their practices. Other than the D3, our formulas are vegan. b Do Liquid Hope Peptide and Nourish Peptide work with infusion pumps? Yes, Liquid Hope Peptide and Nourish Peptide formulas work with infusion pumps. b Can the product be exposed to high heat and freezing temperatures? Under guidelines of our research laboratories, if Liquid Hope Peptide and Nourish Peptide are stored and handled properly at ambient temperatures of 60º to 70º degrees Fahrenheit, the maximum shelf-life is two years. Is it OK for Liquid Hope Peptide and Nourish Peptide formulas to sit outside in the heat for short periods of time? Yes. Exposure to higher heats (75–100º+) for short periods of time will not negatively affect the nutritional values. The only time the nutritional values will begin to be affected is if the products are stored at high heat for extended periods of time (6–12+ months). If exposed to high heat for an extended period, the nutrient value may be decreased over time. My Liquid Hope / Nourish Peptide was delivered and sat outside in freezing temperatures and is frozen. Is it OK to use? Yes. Freezing can be a very good way to preserve the nutritional value, texture, and flavor of many foods. As long as the food was grown in a high-quality way (for example, organically grown) the overall nutrient retention in a frozen food will remain high. In other words, the vitamins and minerals will keep well when food is frozen. If you do find that your Liquid Hope Peptide or Nourish Peptide has been frozen, just store at ambient room temperature and it will thaw naturally. If you need a pouch right away, please thaw the unopened pouch gently. If you find that your product has been frozen, the product may separate a bit. The product is still perfectly good to use, just shake thoroughly or reblend in a blender to re-emulsify. b What is my shipment/package is damaged? If you receive ANY units of Liquid Hope Peptide or Nourish Peptide that appear to be bloated, damaged, or leaking to any degree, please contact us immediately at 937-433-4673 / Toll FREE: 1.844.631.8365 and/or send an email to office@functionalformularies.com. Do not open, consume, or wash any product that appears to be damaged. Though rare, damage may happen during shipping. Under those circumstances, and with sufficient proof of damage, your product will be replaced by either your Durable Medical Equipment Company or Functional Formularies. b What is the product number? Liquid Hope Peptide 24 Pack – LHPSW124 12 Pack – LHP112 6 Pack – LHP106 Nourish Peptide 24 Pack – NOUPWS124 12 Pack – NOUP112 6 Pack – NOUP106 b How many ounces are in each pouch of Liquid Hope Peptide and Nourish Peptide? By law, we are required to list the “ounces” and “grams,” which are measures of weight, not measures of volume, on the food label. Because the formula is made from real food, its density can vary and, as such, so can the volume of the formula in each pouch. Rest assured, each pouch contains 341 grams as measured on a gram scale. All nutritional information stated on our website and packaging is correct. It is calculated and tested per pouch, and the most accurate measure is 341 grams which is what our manufacturers use as a gauge of measurement on calibrated scales. Any pouch below 341 grams is rejected. The conversation of weight is a complex one due to the fact that our product, per food labeling laws, has to show 12 ounces on the label. However, our products are not fluid ounces as most people expect, due to the viscosity. A glass measuring cup or syringe with ounce measurements is designed to measure only fluid ounces. Our product, due to it not being “fluid” or thin as water, will only show 10 ounces. We have done our best to offer accurate mL measures as a courtesy knowing that RDs are used to working with this measuring system. Why are there variables in mL from pouch to pouch? When it comes to measuring solids, weight (grams) is generally considered as more accurate than volume (mL). This is because the weight of a substance on Earth will remain constant even if its surrounding condition changes (e.g. if it gets hotter or colder). On the other hand, the amount of space (volume) occupied by a substance—especially if it is a liquid—can be affected by things like changes in temperature without the substance changing its form. b Does Insurance cover Liquid Hope Peptide and Nourish Peptide? Yes! More than 96% of insurances cover our products (Medicare, Medicaid, and many private insurances). At Functional Formularies we have patient advocates available to help you gain insurance coverage for our products. Please email us at: insurance@functionalformularies.com or call us at 937.433.HOPE (4673) and we will set up an appointment for you with a patient advocate. Click here for Insurance information. We are the first organic enteral formula to be approved by Medicare. Nourish Peptide : HCPCS Code: B4161 Insurance Data Bank & Billing Code: 57858-0004-27* Liquid Hope Peptide: HCPCS Code: B4153 Insurance Data Bank & Billing Code: 57858-0004-28* *Medicare, Medicaid and health insurers may ask you to provide a National Drug Code/NDC number for insurance claims, billing or reimbursement purposes. Because our products are whole foods and do not constitute “drugs”, we have an Insurance Data Bank and Billing Code that you should use when asked for an NDC number for our products. b Are there any variations in consistency with real food product? Our Peptide formulas undergo regular nutritional assessment and lab testing. However, as with all real food products, the nutrient levels may vary a bit due to growing season, soil, and weather conditions. If you have specific dietary restrictions that require you to be exact with certain nutrient levels, please discuss the use of this product with a health care provider. b Is this safe? Our Peptide formulas meet all food safety requirements and meet all GRAS, HACCP, and CGMP standards. Liquid Hope Peptide and Nourish Peptide are produced in a FDA/USDA registered facility with a USDA inspector on site. Our formulas undergo thorough testing before they are released from the manufacturer. Both Liquid Hope Peptide and Nourish peptide formulas are shelf-stable, require no refrigeration, and have a two-year shelf life. b What is the hang time? All of our peptide formulas are approved for a 12 hour hang time. b When can I reach an operator? Someone will be available to take your calls Monday–Friday 9–5pm, EST (excluding major U.S. holidays). Your call is very important to us, so if you receive a recording please leave us a message with your name and number and we will return your call within 24 hours. We can also be reached by email. 937.433.4673 TOLL FREE: 1.844.631.8365 b What is our refund policy? Due to the nature of our products, we cannot return any item to stock. After our product leaves our facility we cannot control how it is stored or cared for. We would never ship previously sold products to customers and we feel that you would not want us to do so. We recommend donating your unopened product to someone else who could benefit from it. We can direct you to our partner organizations that distribute our products to their communities. Our products also can be used orally and make a great protein shake or can be included in many dishes. b Who can benefit from our peptide formulas? Our peptide formulas contain organic hydrolyzed pea protein and organic MCT oil. The protein and fat in our original formulas can be thought of as long pearl necklaces that need to be broken down by the body into individual pearls in order to be absorbed and utilized easily. Our peptide formulas contain short chains of pearls rather than longer chains so that the body does not have to work as hard to absorb and utilize the nutrients. These formulas are most appropriate for those that may have issues that result in malabsorption problems or difficulty utilizing a standard formula. It is a specialized formula and is usually approved only for certain conditions if insurance coverage is needed. It is best to check with your healthcare provider to determine if you have a condition that would benefit from a peptide based formula.
