The rep recommended it because it is easily digested, has lots of omega 3s, and prebiotics. I would think your doc or dietitian would ultimately have to prescribe so that insurance will cover it. We go for a slow drip so the tummy stays much happier! Your mom will end up loving the PEG!!! It is so easy.
Best of luck, Robinleigh
