Peg Food

[Shane the Pain]

Hi Yall,

I'm using my peg and things are fine, I was wondering if my fellow AlS patients could recommend the best canned product to use? If it matters I am NOT on continuous food.

I look forward to your responses
Thank you,
Shane

Hi Shane,

I have used Nestle Resource 2.0 from the beginning of my peg experience as it provides a very nutritionally dense formula. It gives 480 calories per 8oz box so it is easier to get caloric requirements in. I have the website bookmarked and would post a link but I am hesitant to link to products anymore. However if you do a search you will find the nestle website and you can order directly from them with free shipping in continental US. And some WalMarts also carry it or can order it.

Good luck
Barry

Dear Barry,

Thank you for your input, I appreciate it.

Thanks again,

Shane just to add that when I first got my peg the formula was just to supplement what I was able to eat by mouth so I started out with 2 boxes per day and I am now on 5 and no food by mouth.
