My SIL kept a box of mother horlicks for me and is telling me to drink it daily. I dont really like the taste much but she says its needed for baby. Does it actually help or is normal diet enough?
Honestly these mother drinks are a bit pricey and not compulsory. I asked my doctor and she said balanced home food and the prescribed supplements were enough for me. Saved some money there.
I had it occasionally on days I felt low on appetite, it felt nice. But my doctor said real food matters more. So I treated it as an extra, not a replacement.
It's a supplement drink that's fine for many, but it's not a must, good home food covers most needs. I had it sometimes when I didnt feel like eating. Ask your doctor if you actually need it.
