Increasing Calories and Protein
Eat smaller, more frequent meals.
Try these ideas:
Add extra butter, margarine and oils when preparing foods.
Mix powdered milk into casseroles, soups, gravies, cereals and milkshakes.
Choose calorie-rich snacks such as: peanut butter and crackers, nuts, cheese toast, yogurt and fruit.
Always have meat, eggs or cheese at meals.
Use honey, jelly and fruit toppings on toast, muffins, bagels and other food items.
Try a nutritional supplement such as Carnation Instant Breakfast ®, Ensure ®, Boost ® or Resource ®.
