Question Older Hamster Care

Hello, my hamster Milton is a bit older now and has gotten somewhat wobbly when he walks and has become less active and enthusiatic about going out of his nest since he stumbles in his cage with paper bedding. He is less wobbly and more active though when i take him out of his cage for walks on the tile floor. My vet has advised to give him 3 supplements and baby food. How much baby food do I give him? I also tried mashing vegetables for him to eat but am worried certain vegetables may worse his condition (example: high uric acid, high sugar). Which ones and how much should i give him? He still has a healthy appetite for foods epsecially sweet ones but less of water in general unless it has some flavor. Should i take most of the bedding instead to give him a flatter surface to walk around in? I tried flattening the paper bedding a few times but he likes ruffling it up once in a while which makes the bedding uneven for him to walk on.
