What is Fortisip?
Fortisip is a therapeutic food in a ready-made milkshake meant for consumption by people who cannot consume enough solid food to maintain a balanced diet; when appetite is poor and nutritional requirements are not being met through ordinary food, many people find it easier to drink than to eat.
