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.

Great product and Heymed Supply has been great. Only complaint is the pricing increase. For two cartons I was paying $85 it just jumped to $105, that’s quite a jump!
