BOOST Very High Calorie Nutritional Drink — Powerful Nutrition When You Need It Most
When your energy needs are greater than a regular meal can cover, BOOST Very High Calorie delivers. This ready-to-drink nutritional shake packs 530 nutrient-dense calories per 8-oz serving, along with 22 g of high-quality protein and 26 essential vitamins and minerals — a complete solution to help you gain or maintain weight, support recovery, or simply stay energized.
Why BOOST Very High Calorie Stands Out
- Maximum Calorie & Protein Boost — With 530 kcal and 22 g protein per serving, it’s ideal for people with high energy demands — whether recovering from illness or needing extra nutrition for active days.
- Complete Nutritional Support — Includes 26 vitamins and minerals (like calcium, vitamin D, zinc, iron, selenium) to support bone health, immune function, and overall wellness.
- Versatile Use — Take it as a snack, mini-meal, or calorie supplement when appetite is low or regular meals aren’t enough. Great for weight maintenance, recovery, or increased nutritional needs.
- Diet-Friendly & Convenient — Gluten-free, kosher, and suitable for those with lactose intolerance. Comes pre-prepared — no mixing required.
- Delicious & Easy to Drink — Rich flavors like Chocolate, Very Vanilla, and Creamy Strawberry make hydration and nutrition enjoyable — either chilled or over ice.
Who It’s For
- Individuals needing a high-calorie, high-protein diet (e.g. recovery, weight gain, medical conditions)
- People with poor appetite, difficulty eating, or increased energy needs
- Busy adults, seniors, or athletes needing a nutrient-dense meal substitute or supplement
- Anyone looking for a quick, balanced nutritional drink — at home or on the go
How to Use
- Enjoy one 8-oz serving daily (or as recommended) as a snack or with a meal. Hinges on increased calorie or protein requirements. No mixing — just shake and drink. Refrigerate after opening.

I am very happy to be able to buy Very High Calorie Booost
Very High Calorie Boost has helped me put on about 25 pounds since I started using it last June. In June I had a Gastric Feeding Tube inserted into my stomach and from then I must get almost all of my nutrition from liquid foods. In June my weight had dropped to about 124 pounds because of issues with eating by mouth. The very high calorie Boost is added each day to the medium calorie liquid that must come thru the tube. Thanks for having such a reasonable price on such an important food for me.

Boost VHC
I have been using Boost Very High Calorie as my sole source of nutrition for two years. It helped me regain 20 pounds that I had lost due to medical treatment and medication.This is a great product and Hey Med is an excellent vendor.
