A method of treating a mammal to promote wound healing in the mammal in need thereof, comprising orally administering to the mammal an effective amount of a palatable, concentrated protein composition comprising an effective amount of hydrolyzed gelatin and tryptophan, and an ingestible carrier, the composition comprising the essential amino acids required by the mammal. Palatability is preferably achieved by the use of an effective amount of a sweetener. The method is particularly useful for treating wounds resulting from decubitus ulcers and bariatric surgery.

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of treating an individual exhibiting hypoalbuminemia with a high protein concentration nutritional supplement and without excess fluids, comprising orally administering to the mammal an effective amount of a concentrated protein composition comprising about 5 to about 75 parts by weight of enzymatically hydrolyzed gelatin, about 0.02 to about 2.0 parts by weight of tryptophan, about 0.1 to about 2 parts by weight of a sweetener, and about 5 to about 100 parts by weight of an ingestible carrier, the composition comprising the essential amino acids required by the mammal, and wherein the total fluid amount administered is about 15 mL to about 60 mL, such that the individual is treated for hypoalbuminemia and the treatment does not unduly burden the mammal with excess fluids; wherein said composition comprises the following amino acids, in grams per hundred grams of protein, each value understood to include a range of ±30% by weight: Amino Acid g/100 g Protein L-Alanine 8.60 L-Arginine 7.90 L-Aspartic Acid 5.90 L-Cystine 0.07 L-Glutamic Acid 9.90 Glycine 23.10 L-Histidine 0.73 Hydroxylysine 1.00 L-Hydroxyproline 6.60 L-Isoleucine 1.30 L-Leucine 3.00 L-Lysine 4.30 L-Methionine 0.73 L-Phenylalanine 2.30 L-Proline 15.20 L-Serine 6.60 L-Threonine 2.00 L-Tryptophan 0.40 L-Tyrosine 0.70 L-Valine 2.40. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein said hydrolyzed gelatin is a product resulting from the proteolytic enzymatic hydrolysis of gelatin derived from animal collagen, wherein said animal collagen is derived from the skin of one or more animals selected from the group consisting of the pig, bovine, ox, cow, calf, bull, sheep, goat, antelope and buffalo. 3. The method of claim 2 wherein said hydrolysis is accomplished with a protease selected from the group consisting of animal and bacterial serine protease, plant cysteine protease, animal and fungal aspartic protease, animal and bacterial metallo protease, an enzyme is selected from the group consisting of bromelain, papain, chymopapain, ficin, pepsin, chymosin and trypsin and mixtures thereof. 4. The method of claim 1 wherein the composition is in liquid form and wherein the carrier is water in a proportion of about 15 to about 80 parts by weight, said composition additionally comprising, in parts by weight, about 0.3 to about 10 parts of a palatable acid, about 7 to about 25 parts of sorbitol (70 wt. %), about 0.1 to about 3 parts of a preservative, and about 0 to about 0.4 parts of a flavoring agent. 5. The method of claim 1 wherein said sweetener is a natural sweetener, an artificial sweetener or mixtures. thereof. 6. The method of claim 5 wherein said artificial sweetener is selected from the group consisting of acesulfame potassium, aspartame, neotame, saccharin, sucralose, alitame, cyclamate and mixtures thereof, and said natural sweetener is selected from the group consisting of tagatose, trehalose, a dihydrochalcone, clycyrrhizin, stevioside, thaumatin, erythritol, hydrogenated starch hydolysates, isomalt, lactitol, maltitol, mannitol, sorbitol, xylitol and mixtures thereof. 7. The method of claim 1 wherein the composition includes about 10 to about 30 grams of all essential and non-essential amino acids. 8. The method of claim 1 wherein the amount of said concentrated protein composition ingested is about 30 mL and is sufficient to provide about 15 grams of protein and from about 64 to about 101 calories. 9. method of claim 1 wherein the amount of said concentrated protein composition administered is sufficient to cause the mammal to exhibit a positive nitrogen balance. 10. The method of claim 4 wherein the amount of said concentrated protein composition administered is sufficient to cause the mammal to exhibit a positive nitrogen balance. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the mammal is a person and the method results in improved compliance by the person with the treatment method. 12. The method of claim 4, wherein the mammal is a person and the method results in improved compliance by the person with the treatment method.
