Doctors or Dietitians usually recommend these products for people with impaired nutrient/food intake due to particular medical conditions. Up&Go does not have the same range of added vitamins and minerals as these products, and therefore should not replace them without first consulting the Doctor or Dietitian who recommended them. However, Up&Go is a nutritious food that could complement the nutrient intake of the regular diet. Up&Go is potentially ideal for people with impaired nutrient intakes, such as elderly people, people with poor appetites (eg cancer patients) or people with eating/swallowing difficulties – recommend these people consult their Doctor or Dietitian.
