liquid diets - in need of serious help. sigh.

[Guest guest]

I seem to be extremely sensitive to everything, which is causing of

ton of serious digestive problems (in fact I'm writing this from the

hospital!). they've got me on an IV diet right now which is giving my

GI a rest, but I need to think about what to eat when I go home.

 

the doctors here tell me to just drink ensure, boost, glucerna, etc,

but I'm not happy with those choices because I seem to have grain and

dairy sensitivities that western medicine doesn't seem to want to

acknowledge (lame!!). plus, most grocery store liquid diets are high

in sugar, something I feel better when I have less of in my system.

so here I am, looking for a liquid diet for home that will give me the

nutrients I need that limiting myself to my current " safe foods " might

deprive me of.

 

something dairy free (or potentially only lactose free - I'm not sure

yet), gluten free, hopefully corn free. there's speculation that I

might have an overall grain problem (even rice!) but that's still in

the maybe stage so I'm not worried about rice at the moment. at this

point I need something easy to digest, low in sugar, and dense in

nutrients. yes juicing is an option, but I'm pretty weak these days

and will need a pre-fab product for a little while until my energy

builds to the point that I can prepare food again.

 

what do you folks eat/drink/consume when in need of a liquid diet that

caters to your sensitivities? is there the perfect liquid diet?
