I did make him duck soup once with the Nutrical, but he wouldn't eat it. I will get some more and try it with water. Would it be ok to add something else sugary to it? Also I was wondering about something like Ensure. It has protein as well as sugar. I mix the baby food fruit in with his meat based duck soup every three hours. Then in between he needs a little boost. Would the meat based duck soup counteract the sugar in the fruit? It goes up higher when I just give him the fruit. Although I figured the protein of the meat would keep it from dropping so rapidly.
