| My vet once told me that I could use it if I didn't have nutrical. It seemed to have the same affect. Probably not as healthy as nutrical, but a little bit if you really need it shouldn't hurt.

| Karo is just as good as Nutrical for hypoglycemia. I, personally, don't recommend honey (especially for puppies) because honey can contain a bacteria. If you read up on honey you will find that human babies should not be given honey until they are at least one year old, or is it two?? |

| I all I could use was Kayro. Diesel HATED Nurtical. He would spit it out everytime. He wouldn't even lick it off of my hand. I always used the Light Kayro Syrup.

| Absolutely, white karo. Our vet told us the day we brought Toto home to stop and pick some up .... keep a little bottle filled with it and a spoon with us at all times! That was 3 years ago and I still do this! [I also keep vet formula NutriCal.]

| Yes it should have the same effect, and to be honest I think it is a very similar product, in terms of the primarly ingredients!
