Many are available!: First make sure that the amount of sugar in the supplement is in keeping with your mother's diet. "Boost", "Ensure" and a number of other brands are available. Serving them cold may help the taste and promote some appetite. (A little ice cream also makes the experience better)( again within sugar limits) Hope this helps!
