Very High Calorie Nutritional Drink, Very Vanilla, 8 Ounce Box, Pack of 27

When nutrition and caloric intake is a problem, you want to be sure that every bite (or swallow) counts. In the same volume as other drink supplements, this packs in double the calories. This high calorie formula only comes in vanilla. The taste is the same as the regular formula, and the consistency is a tad thicker. Although he liked it, after a while, my son started to tire of vanilla at every meal. I bought some strong, French Roast instant coffee and discovered this makes for a pretty dang delicious frappuccino. Dissolve a tsp-tbsp of instant coffee in as little hot water as possible. You want to add concentrated flavor, not volume. Add this coffee slurry to the carton of Boost and you've just created a nutritional coffee drink. A couple other options for variety: 1 - Mix with orange juice concentrate to create a Creamsicle/Orange Julius drink. Instead of just using juice, use frozen canned concentrate. If you use already mixed juice, you have to use almost a 1:1 ratio in order for the juice flavor to come through. Having to double the volume defeats the whole purpose of concentrated calories. A tbsp of frozen concentrate is about right for one box. Lime concentrate was yummy too. Other frozen juice flavors (apple and cranberry) mixed w/ this vanilla (in my sons opinion), were too sweet. Be creative. I'm sure any juice concentrate would work. 2 - A squeeze of chocolate syrup turns this into a chocolate drink. I used dark chocolate syrup so it would be less sweet. My son had gone from 175 to 110 lbs post surgery. Tube feeding formulas gave him horrible digestive problems, but he had no appetite and did not want to eat. This was the miracle drink that got him back on his feet.

I had a chronic throat issue due to reflux (it’s called laryngopharyngeal reflux aka LPR) because of which I had a very tight, scratchy throat and extreme difficulty in swallowing foods, as a result I lost too much weight (I was normal weight and I am close to underweight now and underweight doesn’t look too hot on me) also felt weak and tired all the time. I have recovered from the throat issue but I still need to avoid certain foods, so it is not possible for me to eat indiscriminately and gain my weight back from eating whatever. Since taking the Boost Very High calorie as an additional, quick 530 calorie to my existing diet, I have been feeling better. I have noticed a difference in my overall energy (I also started taking vitafusion gummy vitamins- they are fantastic and works very well in upping my energy), and slowly gaining my strength back. As you can see from the photo, it’s only been 5 days (I take one a day with strawberry syrup), and already gained a solid one pound. I would like to add that I have a sensitive stomach and this did not cause me any stomach issues whatsoever. (Before I discovered Boost VHC, I have tried Soylent and Soylent caused me severe bloating and has way less calorie per bottle). So thankful for this reason as well that I can digest this one well. I am looking forward to gaining the rest of the 10 pounds and looking and feeling like myself again. Thanks for this, Nestlé! Would buy and recommend!

I've bought these drinks for a year now, I try to consume one a day. They make for great meal replacements especially if you're in a hurry and you have no time to eat. Trick is, it has to be cold (don't freeze, it turns a really weird slushy like texture) and I dilute it with equal amounts water (mix well!) . At first, it took me a long time to drink it because there is this odd chemically taste that's in all other nutritional drinks too. The straw helps from the taste from getting really coated in your mouth. Plus! Not only is this literally the most caloric drink I've found, it has the least amount of sugar (but still tastes very sweet) and a high amount of protein which also helps with the weight gain. I initially noticed an upwards of 8lb weight gain, but now I drink it mostly to maintain the weight. Never came damaged and honestly I wish it came in bigger sizes because these drinks only last me a month or so.

Excellent product. I've been struggling with NO appetite severe weight loss & this probably saved me. Gained a bit of weight January through April, quit using it & immediately started losing weight again but stress, anxiety, isolation & fear of the Covid19 thing burns a lot of calories. Went from size 4 to 6 in three (3) months but sadly back down to -4 & BMI now 17. I never had a problem drinking this at room temp & ro me, it taste very good. Last batch I got was not quite as thick as the first few orders but the viscosity has NEVER bothered me. Wish it came in different flavors. Variety would be nice when BOOST is all one can get down. Maybe once did I have a digestive problems..if you know what I mean. Ensure Plus kept me alive many times prior to discovering this supplement & is an excellent product, too but I needed a high, high calorie supplement. Will reorder the BOOST.

I’ve only had three of these, but they taste pretty good. You have to drink them cold. I don’t know if I would drink more than three per day, limit it to probably two maximum. I’ve noticed that 10 or 15 minutes after I’ve drank these, my stomach does feel a little different. Not sure if it’s from the calorie intake or the ingredients, but I think if you drink half the box and then maybe 30 minutes or an hour later, drink the other, maybe your stomach won’t feel upset. I definitely would not drink this when you’re eating a big meal. I sometimes have trouble eating at least 2000 cal per day, and I think one or two of these a day will help me gain a little weight. If you’re unsure about if you would like them or not, I wouldn’t buy the full case of 27, I’ve seen them sold in packs of 24 I believe. I would definitely recommend them if you’re not getting enough calories per day or want to try to put on a few extra pounds. However, if your stomach gets all upset after drinking, try drinking half the box and then waiting a bit and try the rest.
