In reply to anyone tried Ensure?, posted by CareBear04 on October 31, 2004, at 1:54:40
My 12 year old likes Ensure just fine. She prefers vanilla. I haven't tasted it though. I heard there is a new juice version that tastes good. She's now on a formula-only diet to induce remission of Crohn's disease. She drinks it during the day and then puts a nasogastric tube down at night to pump in the remainder of what she needs to get to 2000-2500 calories. Insurance pays for the home health since the formula is her only source of nutrition for the next 6 weeks. You might want to check into this, especially with your sore throat and weight loss.
