We use Glucerna with Carbstart for my wife. She was diabetic prior to the stroke that created the necessity for a feeding tube but now no sugar problems. Also weight has been easily maintained with this and the help of a dietician and her physician.

I looked up Lliquid Hope. It is a very pricy organic product. If you are worried about chemicals used for preservatives from other products, they are common. Are you worried about cancer causing chemicals at this stage? Does Liquid Hope need refrigeration because it does not contain those chemicals?
