Does Ensure help you gain weight?

Different Ensure products are designed to meet different nutrition needs. Some Ensure Products (Ensure Original, Ensure Plus, and Ensure Enlive) are designed to provide complete, balanced nutrition to help people maintain or gain a healthy weight, particularly for patients who are at risk of malnutrition or are experiencing involuntary weight loss. On the other hand, Ensure High Protein, Ensure Light and Ensure Clear are designed to provide supplemental protein and other nutrients in fewer calories than Ensure Original, Ensure Plus, and Ensure Enlive.

Is there a limit on how many servings of Ensure Plus one can consume each day?

The greatest quantity of Ensure/Ensure Plus that would be recommended for adults is 6 - 8 servings per day. A serving is considered 8 fl oz. As always, please check with your healthcare professional regarding individual needs and recommendations. This limit is based on the nutrients in a single serving compared to the Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) for all nutrients established and recorded in the Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) established standards. ULs for nutrients can be found on DRI tables at http://fnic.nal.usda.gov/.

Is Ensure lactose-free?

All Ensure products contain some lactose but do not represent a medical concern for individuals with lactose intolerance due to the small amount.

Ensure products should not be consumed by people with galactosemia.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Disgusting flaky chunks The past three bottles of this I have tried to drink have been chocked full of nasty scaly whitish chunks. I don’t have any idea what these chunks are, but my nest guess is they’re congealed chunks of corn starch or something. Regardless, they’re disgusting and ruin an appetite.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the dark chocolate the best I've been drinking the dark chocolate Ensure for a few years and just love it. Not only is it better tasting than the milk chocolate but one time I bought the vanilla flavor and found that it was my second favorite flavor. The dark chocolate is the best. I drink one per day so when I buy a three six pack it lasts me 18 days. I would go shopping every two weeks until the pandemic hit. Fresh Direct only has the vanilla and the milk chocolate and not the dark chocolate.
