To order in the hospital
These recipes can be used when your child needs extra calories. They can be ordered when your child is in the hospital or can be made once your child goes home. Your child’s dietitian can help you decide how many shakes your child should have each day.
- All recipes make a 10 to 12 fluid ounce shake. Amounts may vary based on the ingredients available.
- Super Shakes may not meet 100% of your child’s nutrition needs. They should not be used as your child’s only kind of nutrition.
- If you have concerns about the ingredients in any of the Super Shakes, please contact your child’s dietitian.
