Mix a clear high protein liquid with Jello and canned fruit. My home health care provider, I, and my nutritionist discovered this by accident. I had been to the ER 5 times in 5 years with blocked bowls. Have no problems if I eat this Jello, fruit, and high protein liquid. Your neurologist should know where to order the high protein liquid. I get mine from the VA.
