Food Replacement/ Supplementation: Vital HN?

Hey everyone. Just wondering if anyone out there has tried any supplemental foods other than Ensure (which is high in fat and dairy)? I've seen one in a book called Vital HN which comes as a dry powder that contains pre-digested protein, calories, minerals and vitamins. There is another one called Criticare, which is also has pre-digested protein, but is definitely very expensive.

Some of you have mentionned rice protein products? What are they, what do they have in them, and do you know if they are also gluten-free?

I ask because, though I eat a fair bit, I'm wondering if I'm absorbing much as my weight has fallen on the diet. As well as IBS-D, I also have coeliac disease to contend with. It seems like a good idea to supplement my diet and/or to rest my bowel sometimes. I used to do this with Ensure, but it has many ingredients not safe on our diet.

Has anyone tried Vital HN, and is it IBS diet safe?
