Would "Boost" be better? (My son is ADHD and I have to give him Boost plus Adult vitamins plus what he eats regularly) Also, is this too much protein or too little? How much in Fruits/Vegetables would she need to eat to balance. Right now, my mom is giving her some vitamins, 3 cans of ensure, plus the fruits/vegetables. I know Grandma eats 1 duck egg, a piece of toast, small orange juice and ensure for breakfast. Lunch kind of varies, but it is usually fruits/vegetables with Chicken. (Grandma loves Chick-Fil-A!!!) Ensure as a mid-snack and then fruits/vegetables supper. Mom had quit giving Grandma the vitamins a while back and that is when these PD really started showing up. So far, grandma's symptoms have improved quite a bit. I will get the facts off of the vitamin bottles and post. Grandma isn't on meds yet. She has to go to the neurologist next week for the final diagnosis and possibly start medication. Is PD similar to ADD/ADHD where a combination of medicine and diet help to alleviate (though not cure) the problem? We're trying to keep grandma active. My mom has ducks, geese and pygmy goats that she raises and sells. Grandma has a set routine where she collects the eggs in the morning. Plays with the baby goats after breakfast. Gets the mail about 11. When we get over there, we go swimming. I also try to take her to Wal-mart with me. I apologize for the length of my posts but I want to have as much information as I can, plus try and make sure we are doing the right things. My mom depends on me to help her make the right decisions and I like to deal in facts. Cindy
