Key Benefits & Features
- 530 nutrient-rich calories per 8 fl oz (≈ 237 mL) — the highest calorie BOOST® option to help you gain or maintain weight even when you can’t eat much.
- 22 g of high-quality protein — supports muscle preservation and repair.
- 26 essential vitamins & minerals, including immune-supportive nutrients like vitamins C & D, zinc, iron, and selenium.
- No artificial sweeteners or colors — the “Creamy Strawberry” flavor uses natural strawberry flavor.

Boost very high calorie
Boost very high calorie helped me regain my weight which I lost due to surgery for bowel blockage. I’m 5’3” 78 years old and I went from 97 lbs to 120 lbs, a very health weight for me. I feel and look so much better! I’ll continue to use boost to get the vitamins,minerals and protein I need to maintain my health.

Good taste but expensive.
I like the chocolate taste. Have not tried other flavors. Has helped to maintain my weight weight during my Chemo therapy treatment. Is expensive but sometimes goes on sale at Hey Medical.
