The nutrition benefits are strong, but the taste is off-putting. The person we bought it for hated the taste and refused to eat anything with this mixed in. I then tasted it, and the taste really is horrible and strong, not maskable with other flavors, even though labeled as "neutral" taste. Buy something else.
We use it to have Extra Calories in a Short Period of time for our mother. She can only eat through a digestive tube. Works great. Thank you!
just what we needed
My husband has a feeding tube, and with an upcoming surgery scheduled I wanted to ensure that he had enough weight and protein on board so that his body is prepared. This product is doing that. I do not know how it tastes, but it mixes easily with water and can be added to his feeding formula without problems. I just bough another case!
Taste is so bad, we couldn't use. It came late. Nestle Benecalorie is a much better option. More calories and no taste.
