Not good for anyone!: As a doctor who specializes in nutrition I feel NO ONE SHOULD EVER DRINK ENSURE. It's quite unhealthy,has almost 5 tsp of sugar, much as toxic corn syrup, GMO corn and soy and many toxic chemicals. That it's often given in hospitals shows how clueless most docs are about nutrition. See https://foodtherapymd.com/ensure-bad-health/ Instead try ORGAIN drinks or powders or similar organic products.
