The investigators have developed a proprietary blend of amino acids that they think will help to prevent or reduce the severity of delirium in older adults (60 years and older) who are hospitalized for certain infections. In this study, up to 45 people will be enrolled.15 will be asked to drink this blend twice a day for up to 4 days, and 15 will receive standard treatment in the hospital for the same time period. The other 15 subjects will be non-delirious control subjects who do not consume any study products.
