This study is a randomized controlled trial comparing outcomes between geriatric hip fractures who received a commercially available (XR RecoveryTM, Salt Lake City Utah) peri-operative nutritional supplement for three weeks post-operatively to those who receive standard nutritional counseling. The main question it aims to answer is: \- Does supplementation decrease muscle loss via ultrasound measurements of the cross-sectional area of the rectus femoris of the uninjured leg?

2 packets of XR Carbohydrate Loading will be administered the evening before surgery and one packet on the day of surgery up to 2 hours prior to the scheduled operating time. Participants will then take the XR™ Recovery Supplement twice daily for three weeks following their surgery.
The control group will receive standard of care nutritional counseling with a registered dietician once during inpatient admission, without the use of the supplement.
Participants will receive a total daily dosage of 59.2 grams of XR™ Recovery Supplement orally, divided into two doses of 29.6 grams each (or two pouches). The dosing regimen will begin upon hospital admission and continue for three weeks post-operatively.
2 packets of XR Carbohydrate Loading will be administered the evening before surgery and one packet on the day of surgery up to 2 hours prior to the scheduled operating time. The powder will be mixed with 14 oz of room temperature water only until dissolved then may be served over ice for desired temperature of consumption by the participant.
