Ensure Original Milk Chocolate Nutrition Shake | Small Meal Replacement Shake | Ready To Drink | 9g Protein, 27 Vitamins and Minerals | 8 fl oz - 16 Pack

My husband was recently diagnosed with cancer and while on chemo, he had lost 30 pounds in 6 weeks and we had to try and get some weight back on him quickly. Never having tried any of the high calorie drinks, I picked this one and ordered a case and I was lucky to get the best on my first try. The price was very reasonable, the drink was delicious and stayed down, and it was delivered right to my front door (and when you are dealing with cancer, chemo, drs and hsp constantly, anything that arrives at your front door is a blessing.) I have since ordered another case of vanilla. We mix the drink with Blue Bell vanilla ice cream and make a shake and my husband can finish almost all of it without throwing it back up. He has regained about 10 pounds and at least is not losing anymore. Radiation is next and I hope the side effects are less than with the chemo, but we will stay on the Ensure just in case.

I have been told my doctors I should drink this since my metabolism is high and I have trouble gaining weight plus my vitamin needs are not met dietary! At first I was reluctant because I served it to the elderly during my nursing career. But I found the milk chocolate and I love it..PUt it in the refrigerator and it is just as good as a shake! I have been drinking it for about two years.I just wish it wasn't so expensive and it came in 30 count for daily use.I got it on time as ordered. I am buying it though the subscribe and save and saving a few dollars. The packaging could be less bulkier. It is put in a box bigger than the case. I keep thinking it could be just be wrapped with brown paper.

As most probably know, this liquid nutritional beverage is often used in hospital settings to provide approximately a third of an average adult's nutrient needs. I have purchased this for an individual who often has time in eating all his meals, but is able to consume this eight ounce serving product. One may think of this as a replacement for one of the proverbial three daily meals. Of course this is not a substitute for eating a balanced meal containing fruits, vegetables and whole grains, all of which add essential soluble and insoluble fiber to the diet. But for the purpose I noted above, this is a tasty and affordable product. Another particularly well liked flavor is Butter Pecan, but often is more pricey as it is generally sold through marketplace vendors.

Dr. got me started on these 10yrs ago and this is by far the best price I can find. Remember to shake them up. If you are going to freeze one, like I do every so often, remember to shake it up and them take a swig out of the bottle before 'lightly' screwing on the lid again. If it's too frozen just eat it with a iced tea spoon as they fit perfectly in there. I try to just get them to be really icy but sometimes I just forget that I put it in there and why waste the time for it to defrost when you've now got a frozen treat, which rather reminds me of Chocolate Ice Milk.6/2015 EXPIRES: 7/2016

To make a long story short, I'm living with several gastrointestinal issues. Sometimes I can't eat solid foods without a lot of pain so I drink this to balance my nutritional needs and satisfy me when I'm hungry. Usually I have one for "breakfast" and another one that I sip on several times during the evening hours before going to bed. My doctor said during times I can't eat solid food drink at least 4 a day as well as other liquids like broth. I wouldn't want to live on this stuff for very long periods of time because of all the sugars and oils but it really helps when I need it. I love the Chocolate flavor. Just drink it cold and shake it well. Very tasty. This 16 count case is the best deal I've found anywhere. Hope they don't raise the price because Amazon makes it affordable for me.P.S.....my husband has started drinking one a day and says it's very tasty. He's hooked. He's tall and thin and loses weight easily (don't you just hate him...lol). Now that we're so much older we want to keep what weight he does have, on him without resorting to eating high fat junk foods.

I have an immune deficiency and not much of an appetite, so I drink these a couple times daily. The chocolate is really good and its more of a treat for me. My health seems better as long as I drink these and take my natural supplements.I've now got them on auto ship once a month. It's very convenient and I can't beat the cost elsewhere! I'd recommend them to anyone who needs the extra nutrition or has problems eating. The auto ship works great and saves quite a bit of money each month!

I purchased two cases of the 16 bottle cases of Ensure thru Amazon because of the free shipping and the fact that they had what I wanted immediately available. This drink is very good and tastes very chocolate. It is one of he better buys Amazon has to offer. The box the shipping department sent it in almost didn't make it. The tape holding the box togather was coming apart when it was delivered. I would recommend this drink to anyone who's doctor says to use it.

These helped me get through wisdom tooth extraction (all 4). Quite tasty, reminds me of the "chocolate drink" I used to drink as a kid in school, though judging from the nutrition facts label these are healthier. There are probably better alternatives out there with less sugar, but I'll vouch for these if you suddenly find yourself unable to chew for a week. Also it should be noted that they reduced the sugar content from 22g to 15g, the pictures of the nutrition facts on Amazon's store page are outdated.
