Boost VHC

This product is highly recommended. Effective and affordable.

Love this drink!!
I've been trying to gain weight for years, and this drink helps to ensure I reach my calorie goal for the day. The vanilla tastes good and it's easy to chug and get down easily. Great meal replacement and keeps me full. Highly recommend!
-
Boost Chocolate VHC
This is the best stuff on the market for gaining weight. The flavor is strong, so mix with milk to taste. I expect you could add ice cream for an added punch. The Hey Med price is the lowest I can find. Same quality, and excellent customer service!

I love this drink!
I have reduced appetite because of chemo treatments and have a hard time keeping weight on. This Very High Calorie Boost is an easy way to make sure that I get plenty of calories even it I don't have an appetite. The drink is only 8 oz so it goes down quickly if I want it to, and it doesn't leave me feeling bloated. It's thicker than the normal Boost protein drinks but not as thick as a milk shake. I only wish chocolate was available on this site.
