I am only 1 month out of 3 Cisplatins with concurrent 35 IMRT rads. I have hardly any taste but can smell it a mile away (bummer). I have found a great product though...Carnation Instant Breakfast VHC. It has a whopping 560 cal in 8oz and tastes just like Ensure Plus. I don't like either but now I only have to swallow 5 VHC's to get the same 2800 cals as in 8 Plus'. I have gained 5 of the 30 pounds I lost and I didn't have a tube (wished I did).
