Thanks We're alreadyAnotherSurvivor said:I was pretty out of it during
I was pretty out of it during treatment and ignored advice on using various vegetable oils to suppliment. Now 4 months post I am using coconut and seseme oil to fight Thrush/Candida and learning that a very small quantity has loads of calories. A single tablespoon of seseme oil has 130 calories, and will be a whole lot better than the equivalent corn syrup calories.
Thanks We're already using loads of peanut butter, flax oil and olive oil in his blends but even at 2500 calories/day he's losing some weight. I've just upped that to 3000 to see what happens and I'm hesitant to add more oils. Since we're blending his meals from 'real' food I'm fairly comfy with adding some of the 'not so healthy' calories. I am going to look for the coconut and sesame oils just for variety.
