The present invention relates to an apparatus for modifying and feeding a
liquid nutritional feeding composition. The apparatus comprises a chamber
(3) for receiving a beneficial agent for modifying a liquid nutritional
feeding composition, the chamber has an inlet (7) connectable to a
container (5) that contains the nutritional feeding composition and an
outlet (13) connectable to a feeding means (8,9). A pumping means is
associated with the chamber (3) for pumping the nutritional feeding
composition from the container into the chamber and back into the
container to mix the beneficial agent with the nutritional feeding
composition before the outlet (13) of the chamber is connected to the
feeding means (8,9). The chamber (3) may comprise at least one flexible
wall capable of being squeezed and released for pumping the nutritional
feeding composition. The invention also relates to a method for modifying
and feeding a liquid nutritional feeding composition.
