Has anyone on here tried Benecalorie? It is a high calorie protein supplement you can add to food. Has it worked out well for any of you?

    YES! I add a little thing of Benecalorie to ALL of my husband's smoothies!  He is getting his last (of 8) Erbitux today and last radiation tomorrow for Stage IV BOT SCC and he has been on a liquid diet for the last couple weeks.  His weight is holding fairly steady since adding the benecalories in.  It is the easiest 330 calories because it is so small!  Very easy to add to oatmeal, smoothies, protein drinks, etc.

    Lived on benecal and chicken soup for 4 months.  It's okay, tho it does change the taste a bit.
