The Equate Plus (from Wal-Mart) is very inexpensive and has the same content as the Ensure. Most of my stomach and GI problems were solved with fiber. I live entirely on my peg tube, and I knew I needed the roughage.

After lots of experimenting, I settled on Benefiber. I toss a couple of teaspoons into each bottle of water during the day and it does the trick. Remember that some of those GI problems are med induced too.

I've tried blending real meals, but I just can't get enough calories that way. Consider using high calorie Ensure (Equate or other) instead of soy milk as a thinner. My latest routine is to combine blended foods with a couple of cans of Equate - 3-4 times per day. Tom
