You know you should compare the nutritional information on the back of a can of ensure to that on the back of a can of slimfast. You'll see something interesting.

ok i searched...and judging by the nutrition facts from thedailyplate.com....the ensure shake seems to be a beefed up version of a slimfast..the only big difference was that the slimfast was 190 calories and the ensure was 350..

I think its funny how people think slimfast will help them loose weight when it has 34g of sugar....lol They'd be better off eating a poptart
oh as long as you watch the cals, Ensure would be fine I think, might have a lot of sugar tho so watch out

Personally, I'd go with a whey shake with perhaps some oatmeal or berries in it. Just adding whey to food you normally eat should be all you need.
Ensure is designed as a meal replacement for sick people, it's not intended for bodybuilders.65% fat, 30% protein, 5% carbs = keto.
