Pros: Flavour, convenience, variety, health benefits.
Cons: I wish there was more than just 235mL of this tasty drink.
Summary: I made the mistake of originally drinking Ensure at room temperature; thinking it wouldn't matter if it was hot, cold or luke warm. I'm here to tell you now: I was mistaken. The taste, when at room temperature, especially in a can and not a plastic ... read more

Pros: Great nutritional supplement and great taste.
Cons: Pretty pricey; I can't afford to drink one a day.
Summary: "If it's supposed to be good for you, it can't taste too good." As a relatively healthy 40-something-year-old guy, I have become a bit more actively involved in taking care of myself. I have been walking at least once a day for the past 10 ... read more

Pros: Taste isn't bad; better than not eating a meal
Cons: Somewhat expensive
Summary: I often go without breakfast and lunch and, as a result, feel famished and lethargic by the time I get home from work. I decided to try Ensure (chocolate), though most of my previous connections to it had been through deliveries to the elderly from my ... read more

Pros: Quick, easy & healthy
Cons: A little pricey!
Summary: I bought an Ensure 6-pack for the first time as a 'gag gift' for a friend of mine who was having a not-so-young birthday party. I ended up with a few extra bottles and tried it. WOW! I loved it! It said to chill it for the best taste, but I didn't ... read more

Pros: Packed full of vitamins and minerals, several flavors
Cons: Somewhat expensive, not for everyone

Pros: Great for older adults and if you want to gain weight.
Cons: “USE UNDER MEDICAL SUPERVISION FOR TUBE FEEDING, REFER TO PHYSICIAN ORDER”.
Summary: Like actors in Hollywood that play a particular role again and again, Ensure has been type cast as a drink for older adults. Perhaps it’s the manufacture Ross Products Division of Abbot laboratories that should share in the blame since the label ... read more

Cons: Lack of dietary fiber; many people don't care for the taste.
Summary: On the Medical-Surgical floor where I work as an RN, we often supplement our patient's diets with a product called Ensure. We frequently have many elderly patients (many who reside at nursing homes) whose nutritional status is far from adequate, ... read more

Pros: Vanilla flavor is tasty
Cons: somewhat expensive
Summary: Somewhat skeptical, I tried Ensure since I wanted a protein drink that was convenient to drink. I tried Vanilla Ensure and am glad I did. Though Spirutein continues to be my favorite, Vanilla Ensure is a good standby since I don't have to mix it in a ... read more

Cons: Not like a milkshake!

Pros: Portable, Long shelf life, Passable taste, Inexpensive.
Cons: Negative nutritional value, Other products deliver true food value.
Summary: Ensure does so many things well - it comes in easy-open cans, is palatable even at room temperature, has a long shelf life (so one can store it in the car, for example).
Ease of use and convenience make Ensure misleadingly attractive, however, since ... read more
