- 22 g of high-quality protein — supports muscle preservation and repair.

Seems to be working!
My 87 year old mother-in-law had an intestinal blockage. (She is a 3x colon cancer survivor.) She dropped down to 119 lbs when she's ideally at 130 or so. She likes the chocolate and vanilla. She mixes hers with some ice cubes to make a cold shake. She's been using them for three months, and her weight now fluctuates between 122 - 126, so she is slowly (and hopefully, surely) gaining her weight back. I first found and ordered these from another medical supply place, whose title has "Next Day" IN their name, but they took two weeks to ship the first time, and they completely vanished after my 2nd order. HeyMed delivered in a timely manner and has reasonable prices. I will be using them from now on! Thanks so much
