Nutricia Duocal High Calorie Super Soluble Powder - High-Calorie Support Supplement Powder - Energy Supplement with Dual Source of Carbohydrate & Fat - Dairy-Free - Unflavored, 14.1 oz (Case of 6)

Tasteless and mostly odorless.

Easy to mix and truly unflavored. A great support for anyone needing extra calories without added fuss or strong taste. It helped my daughter put on some weight as an additional measure. I would put half scoop for 4oz of milk in baby's bottle.

Muy bueno

My son was 4 years old when he began losing interest in food. He was not consuming nearly enough calories and began losing weight rather than gaining. He was dropping under the 1 percentile for weight at his age rapidly. He had actually lost almost a pound in a year. Our pediatrician immediately gave us a can of this and told us to incorporate a scoop or two in ANYTHING that it would dissolve in that he’d eat. After follow up appointment with pediatric GI specialist, she also recommended that we keep up with this as a last resort before hospitalization or surgical intervention. He is 6 now and while still underweight, his doctors are no longer concerned. By all accounts this stuff has contributed to his weight gain and maintenance. If done properly, you can double caloric intake by augmenting regular meals and snacks with it. I’ve tasted it and it is truly flavorless. Easy to mix with just about ANYTHING that’s not bone dry.

My son is a petite baby. He was born at 37w and 4d weighing in at 5lbs and 7oz. He was gaining weight consistently during his first 4 months but after that, it was very difficult to feed him so his weight gain slowly decreased as he got older. He always had to be asleep in order for us to feed him his bottle. We started solids early but that didn’t go well. It got tougher to feed him starting at 6 months. He would push the bottle away all the time. Sometimes, I’d be swept with frustration and I’d cry. However, after I did research and found this product, he has been gaining weight the way I was hoping for.I ordered this 1.5 weeks before his 9 month appointment and he had put on 1lb!!!!! 2 weeks prior he was teething so he had diarrhea for 2 days and lost some weight so I was so happy to see that he was finally at 15lbs and 1oz. It was an indescribable feeling knowing that your child is putting on the weight he should!!!!!I just ordered another can just so I can get him to put on some more weight. His pediatrician thinks he’s normal and hitting his milestones. She says he’s on the Asian curve… but I see so many Asian kids chunkier than him. I know that I should be appreciative that he’s healthy and happy but I just can’t help feeling down on myself that im not doing a good job in helping him thrive as a mother should. I am working a regular 8-430 job with a 30 mins commute and I help at my husband’s business after my regular job and don’t get home until 7-8. My mother in law watches him but she has other responsibilities so she’s probably not as attentive to his needs. I try my best to give him all the good high calorie foods for him on my day off (usually Sundays…).Bottom line is, I would continue to buy this again and again.

You can taste the mild but distinct flavor. my kid was able to taste a difference in his food and refused to eat anything with this.

This product is expensive, but you really can't get it for less elsewhere. We had a failure to thrive baby who is now a toddler, and have been adding this to foods. He's an extremely picky eater and always has been, so it's hard to stir this in without him noticing as he's very sensitive to taste, texture, flavor and anything different. It's worked pretty well -- I've managed to put it in spinach artichoke dip and a few other things, but he doesn't eat many varieties of food, and many things he eats like muffins or banana or crackers can't have powder stirred into them, so this seems like it would work better for an older child or one that eats a lot of purees/wet foods that you can easily stir this into. Our son would just refuse to open his mouth/cover his mouth with his hands and not eat, so no matter how wonderful a product is, if he wont' eat it, it doesn't help. He's under a doctor's care and making good improvements. We found increasing the calories in baby formula (preparing it with less water under doctor's direction) and putting 1 tsp oil into his baby food tubs worked best to increase calories (but too much oil can make baby throw up). Probably best to see your doctor about this product; ours mentioned it might be helpful to us. Good luck!
