There are a lot of people who need to gain weight due to a number of things. Some just have a high metabolism like my son, while others are looking for high calorie shakes for cancer patients who have lost weight due to cancer treatments, or due to other diseases and illnesses that have caused weight loss.
Disclosure: I’m not a healthcare professional or a nutritionist. Please exercise caution and consult your doctor before using these shakes on a regular basis. However, unlike a lot of the weight gain milkshakes on the market, these shakes are made with natural ingredients, and a little bit of sugar to sweeten them.
