Carnation VHC, I love this stuff!
Hubby can drink 1 can(8.5 ozs, 560 cals) of vanilla flavored with 3 tbls of godiva chocolate power (130 cals) added for a change of flavor and 1 cup of soymilk (140 cals) for a grand total of 830 cals in 12.5ozs! The more calories he can get in one drink with the least amount to drink the better.
It is so much better then the "ensure" or "boost" or even the Isosource 1.5cal c-rap (only 375cals) they brought by for when he starts needing to use the PEG for feeding. I'm dreading the 6 feedings a day he'll need when his swallowing diminishes to the point that he can't get the nutrition he needs and has to switch to that stuff.
I ordered 2 cases online for 59.01 and after shipping and handling paid only 79.01 to have it delivered to my door. Thank the powers that be for our great informed and proactive nutritionist at my MO's office she hooked me up with where to order it. BTW I got it from RXusa.com and will be ordering more before the the new week begins.
Has anyone had any luck getting thier insurance to pay for this?? thanks, ~Ija~
