How Do I Gain & Maintain Weight?
I asked my Oncologist nurse what could I do to gain and maintain weight.
I am allergic to milk products and diverticulitis of the large intestines.
They know this. Yet they recommended Boost or Ensure. Neither of which I can drink.
Does any one have any idea what I can use?
I'm eating but only because I force myself to do so. Yet I'm unable to maintain weight.
TIA

That’s what I purchased for myself, but they have different flavors if I am not mistaken.

Imy, you need to find a protein powder you can mix with non milk based beverages like Soy, Oat, Coconut, almond milk etc. Someone on here recommended Orgain Organic Protein Powder. It says it certified vegan. Did you try that one?
Imy, yes talk to the dietitian. Boost and Ensure are supposed to be lactose free, but I know many people can't tolerate them. There are also perscription medications that can increase appetite. Also exercise and light weight lifting might help. I lost so much muscle mass from the steriods. Good luck
Imy I would seek help from a dietitian. My husband was able to use boost. All the best🙏❤️
