That has never been an issue. You keep straying off the subject and
keep repeating the same off-topic nonsense.
You wouldn't know that because you are not responsible for caring for anyone
that would need to buy it off the shelf from a local store. Not all
insurance provide the food and people buy it themselves and submit the
bills.
These patients are taken care of at home not in a hospital.

I have seen the elderly and sick given this junk over and over again
as a form of meal replacement. However only recently I had a chance
to not only taste it, but look at the label and familiarize myself with
the ingredients.
Yes, the taste is repugnant, but the more important issue here is
that these products are pushed on the elderly and sick in the disguise
of providing nutritious and life-sustaining support, while in reality they
are nothing more than a donut in a can, and they only worsen many
of the chronic illnesses the targeted population is suffering from.
Look at the ingredient of an IV glucose solution moron. Glucose is sweet and
it is a basic sugar necessary for life. It is incredible how stupid your
knoweldge of medicine or even basic physiology is. How much does an IV raise
the glucose level?
Those people are in negative balance with depleted glycogen stores and you
are worried about giving them donuts. Next thing you will be worried about
is their cholesterol.

Quoted message said:Are you familiar with the latest recommendations on not giving
fruit juices to infants anymore?
That's what you sound like is a baby crying for his juice.
I'm not only familiar with it, but I'm on record of having made
these recommendations decades ago as part of my research on
simple sugars and their effect on chronic diseases.
Simple sugars taste good don't they? Or does broccoli taste better?

Quoted message said:Again, it is a balanced food that keeps people alive and people like you
don't really care about that as all you are interested in is taste.
No, the issue is that IT IS possible to provide liquified meals that
are both nutritious AND palatable, and these products in question
provide the exact opposite.
All you do is talk. Talk is cheap. Try to put those liquified meals into a
feed tube and you can't do it. You don't know what you are talking about.
You have never done it. All you know how to do is talk. Some people are care
givers and must do the work and then you have idiots like yourself who
simply talk.

Quoted message said:Quoted message said:Only if "alive" is synonymous with "vegetative state."
That's a different question all together. I hope you don't have to
experience your own babble.
On the contrary, this is precisely the issue at hand.
Quoted message said:It is not intended for healthy people moron. IT is not intended for
normal
Quoted message said:Quoted message said:healthy people. There is no reason why a healthy normal person should
eat
Quoted message said:Quoted message said:that. Understand?
I understand it alright. But do YOU understand it?
The real reason is because it would make a healthy person sick!
With sugar like that it might. A normal person does not need a large
concentrated load of carbs. To make it less concentrated and less sweet the
person would have to drink a gallon of it and that is not likely in someone
who can not swallow. You wouldn't know that.
Quoted message said:
So if it makes a healthy person sick, why is it given to the elderly
and sick to supposedly make, or keep them healthy?
Quoted message said:It is not intended for normal healthy people moron. Understand?
It is not intended for normal healthy people. Why is that?
Because normal people can eat normal food in any state or quantitiy that
want.
I can't believe such a stupid moronic statement in my life. Give insulin to
a person who has a normal sugar level and you can kill him. Give insulin to
a diabetic and you can save his life. Give any medication to a person who
does not need it and you can end his life. Give potassium to a normal person
and kill him while a potassium IV is given to one who is deficient in K.
Give a concentrated food product to someone who doesn't need it and you have
excess calories and carbs. Give it to someone who has depleted food stores
and save his life.
Your comments are just stupid and ignorant and this coming from a person in
medical research?
I don't buy it.
Quoted message said:
Judging from your comments, these products and their effects
don't seem to be agreeing with you either...
I have tried them and they don't bother me as far as taste.
I only use the vanilla flavor as the strawberry taste too sweet for me. The
chocolate flavor might irritate the stomach and I have switched those
flavors in some tube feeders.
