About Boost
Boost is a nutritional drink sold for older adults and people recovering from illness, part of Nestlé Health Science. It competes directly with Abbott's Ensure in a category driven by clinical recommendation as much as by consumer choice. Sales rise where hospitals and care homes specify a brand, so the marketing is aimed at dietitians rather than at shoppers.
