Malnutrition can be caused by various illness, treatments, cancer, difficulty in swallowing etc, or extra nutrition required pre-/ post-surgery. Appetite loss and early satiety is common in elderly. Seeing our seniors going through weight loss as they age almost seems normal, but actually, it shouldn’t be so. Unintended weight loss should be taken very seriously. Fortisip Compact Protein is an effective and easy way to obtain extra nutrition for maintaining weight and muscle mass.

Studies show when weight loss exceeds 5%, the treatment will be affected, or even worse, interrupted. Being malnourished will weaken the body's immunity and nutritional status, and affect the treatment and recovery process. The vicious circle should be identified and stopped. It is necessary to steadily increase nutritional intake, including protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, etc.. Fortisip Compact Protein has an accurate and clear nutritional content, making it easier to achieve nutritional goals.

It is recommended to drink 1-3 bottles of Fortisip Compact Protein daily, or as prescribed by a healthcare professional. It takes time and patience to rebuild your strong body.
