Can my husband start taking Nurokind LC after breakfast for a month to help with his nutritional needs? He drinks Ensure powder with milk every day, but he still gets leg pain when walking long distances. He's also on vitamin D tablets once a month. I'm just wondering if this would help or if there's something else we should do?
