ripley488 Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 I just get the plain old Ensure - Vanilla flavor. No additional Protein. I have a boy who has a vascular anomaly (constricted esphogus), so he often regurgitates food. He eats only pureed food, but is at risk of aspiration pneumonia. The Ensure seems to help push his food down & the additional nutrition helps him when he does have a bad day eating. I have a 14.7yo who gets a can of Ensure after each meal. She has become very picky & it helps keep the weight on her. When I can't find anything she wants to eat - I usually try 3-4 things before giving up - I will give her a can just for the nutrition. She never passes on her milkshake.

Remolacha Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Sugar has gone back to eating pretty well, after a few months of tear-your-hair-out please-eat-SOMETHING! During that time, she would always drink some Ensure, but only liked the regular Vanilla. Didn't like any of the "plus" varieties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahicks51 Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 There's only three grams of protein difference between the high protein and "regular" flavor, based on the info provided there. Some differences in the carbs and fat, but not so much. If there's no price difference, the high protein should be fine. I remember a long time ago, my buddy's dog got knocked up. After birth, she was skinny so I gave her a mix of kibble and strawberry Ensure. It seemed to help.
