A member asked:
Have trouble eating, will atkins shakes suffice for protein?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Remember, nutrition is more than just about protein. You need proper balances of many minerals and nutrients in the proper dosages. Speak to your physician or ask a sports nutritionist. In the meantime, i'd choose a multi-nutritional drink such as ensure or boost to provide you with the necessary nutrients you need if you cannot eat properly. Your dentist may also help.
