Weight loss due to cancer is different from
weight loss due to dieting. Certain types of
cancer cause changes in the body that decrease appetite,
burn more calories than normal, and increase the breakdown of muscle.
Simply eating more food isn't the answer if the underlying problems aren't addressed.

Studies show that 2 g of EPA* a day are optimal to counteract many of the changes caused by cancer that lead to weight loss. EPA helps stabilize weight loss; but EPA alone does not promote muscle and weight gain. In addition to 1.1 g of EPA in each 240-mL serving, ProSure provides 300 calories and 16 g of protein to help you gain weight and build muscle; 2.4 g of FOS† to help maintain digestive-tract health, help manage diarrhea associated with chemotherapy or radiation, and help relieve constipation associated with pain medications; and 28 vitamins and minerals to meet your nutritional needs. ProSure is low in fat to reduce feelings of fullness.

Important note:

Because cancer-induced weight loss caused by metabolic changes occurs regardless of your eating habits, ProSure should supplement, not replace, your meals. Use under medical supervision.

* EPA = eicosapentaenoic acid
† FOS = fructooligosaccharides
