Is drinking ensure healthy for you?

Question

I am 5' 4" and weigh 105 lbs. I have been drinking ensure plus once a day in between breakfast and lunch to try to put some meat on my bones. I don't want this to effect me later in life. Is it safe to drink? Is there another type of drink that I should be taking instead?

Answer 1

Wow, you could be my body twin.  I think Ensure is pretty safe, but it's full of sugar and in my experience doesn't help to put weight on.  The only thing that has put meat on MY bones was eating more protein and exercising - not cardio intensive  - just yoga, slow stair climbing, weight lifting.  Can you not eat an extra egg a day, nuts, hummus, etc?

Answer 2

its good its for younger kids.

you need some weight though!
