What are nutritional supplements often provided in the form of?

The correct answer is: A flavored shake or drink

Nutritional supplements are often provided in the form of flavored shakes or drinks due to several reasons. These forms are generally more palatable and easier for individuals, especially those who may have difficulty swallowing pills or tablets, to consume. Flavored shakes and drinks can also be more appealing to both younger and older patients, helping to ensure that they receive necessary nutrients in a way that is enjoyable for them. Additionally, liquid supplements can often be fortified with added vitamins and minerals, providing a comprehensive nutritional profile in a single, convenient serving. This makes them an effective choice in various clinical settings, particularly for those requiring nutritional support.
