So beneficial
It is so helpful having products like this available. It is really hard getting enough calories in a day and this makes it much easier; it doesn't taste that bad and you get over the consistency thing pretty quick

I have been living on it since April. I have a PEG tube and rely on the Boost for my nutrition. Far better than the Jevity that they supplied me.

Boost Very High Calorie - Chocolate
I am very grateful for this product. My dad is 94 and stopped making breakfast for himself 18 months ago and lost some weight. Now he often doesn't want to eat - and two of the Boost VHC plus breakfast covers his calorie intake requirements. They taste great.

Boost vhC
My husband is a Head and Neck cancer survivor. God is good! Since he cannot eat solids yet we’ve been using this for 1 1/2 years as his “food”. Unfortunately the prices keep going up and I’m forever chasing suppliers for prices. Your company has been good to us with quick deliveries. This Boost has a good taste and calories that my husband needs. Thank You and God Bless

I'm a throat cancer survivor and have been drinking these for 16 years. They keep me alive. The vanilla flavor is very good.
