Intralipid IV 20% serves as an energy source in people for whom the usual I.V. therapy would not be adequate, and acts as a source of essential fatty acids to prevent essential fatty acid deficiency.

The 20% stands for (20% I.V. Fat Emulsion). Also available are 10%, and 30% Intralipids.

From my own nutritional knowledge,
EFA's (essential fatty acids) are also crucial for weight loss and/or muscle management. (Up to) 40% of your daily fat intake should be from essential fatty acids. So if you are ill from EFA deficiency, then I would recommend either a natural way to combat it by consuming more foods rich in Omega-3, such as salmon or flaxseed; or buying the lowest dosage of Intralipid, because many people already consume more than enough fat in their daily diet.
I am not an MD or a certified nutritionist (yet), but that is my current field of study so I am very confident that this information can help not just ill people but anyone who wants to better their health.
