Can anyone recommend any protein meal replacements for my husband?

Hello

my husband is undergoing chemotherapy for prostate and bone cancer.

he is unable to eat anything savory as it makes him sick.

I was just wondering if anyone could recommend a high protein whole food shake as there are so many out there I don’t know which one to get.

thank you

  • Hello Lyndylu

    I'm sorry to hear that your husband is struggling with his diet whilst undergoing treatment. It's likely a difficult time for you both and understandable that you want to do all you can to try and support him. 

    Have you spoken with his clinical nurse specialist about the difficulties he's having? If not then I'd suggest giving them a call as it may be they can refer him to the dietician for some advice and support. You can find more information on our website here which may be of help. 

    If you'd like to talk things through with one of our nurses you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

    Best wishes,
