BOOST SOOTHE®
Designed in collaboration with cancer patients and oncology centers.
Side effects from chemotherapy, radiation therapy and immunotherapy can impact the nutritional status of a cancer patient and patient outcomes.
Painful mouth ulcers (oral mucositis) and taste alterations (dysgeusia) are common side effects of cancer treatment. Mucositis can effect 20% to 100% of patients and can persist for 2 to 3 weeks after treatment completion, causing eating difficulties and food avoidance due to the painful ulcers and putting patients with oral mucositis at a higher risk of malnutrition.
Food aversions and loss of appetite are also common in the 50% to 100% of treated patients who have loss of taste and changes in taste, known as dysgeusia.
The right nutrition can make a difference- and help patients gain or maintain a healthy weight.
Boost Soothe / Resource Refresh provides 300 calories and 10g of high quality whey protein preserving and is mildly flavored with a cooling soothing effect.
Formulated to avoid certain ingredients known to have a metallic taste, Boost Sothe / Resource Refresh also contains no artificial colours or sweetners.
