Hello all, My wife has had Multiple Sclerosis for years and
she constantly struggles to keep her weight over 100 pounds.
She is now down to 94 pounds and I am getting very concerned.
Does anyone have any suggestions on some high
calorie/carbo/protein foods and/or supplements that would do
the trick. Obviously I would prefer not to spend an arm and a
leg on this but cost will not be too much of an issue for
something that will work. All replies are appreciated.

Thanks

Cheese, chocolate, nuts, would be more caloric.

I would vote for the chocolate, followed by the cheese. There
is some preliminary evidence that nuts are highly satiating
and so it might be difficult to gain weight by eating them.
I've never heard cheese pizza accused of this.
