Ensure Original Nutritional Drink with 9 Grams of protein, Meal Replacement Shakes, Vanilla, 8 fl oz, 24 count

I have variable GI issues that mean sometimes I can't handle solid food for days, weeks, or even months. Ensure helps keep me nourished and at a decent weight during these times, as it's one of the few foods I can keep down. I love most of the flavors but the coffee is one of my favorites.

I'm a LONG time consumer of Ensure: Vanilla (Original) 8fl oz. About August 2019, the Best By Date is very difficult; if not impossible to READ. This information is VITAL to me as a consumer. If I can't see it/read it, that's a problem. I will NO longer purchase this item until the customer is considered IMPORTANT.

So overall this product has saved my life in eating disorder recovery. It was all I was able to tolerate in the hospital and in residential treatment. It was a great way to get the nutrition that I needed and I still drink it even though I am out of treatment because I am now a freshman in college and don't always have time. I am a little concerned at the sugar content and if that is a normal amount of sugar. If one bottle has 15g and one meal is at least two, That means you consume 90g of sugar at least a day if you have six servings. I don't know if anyone else has thought about this I am just curious you know?

My Uncle loves the Ensure milkshakes but chocolate is his favorite flavor. People have told us to put ice cream with it and some ice and make him a “true milkshake” and we are like why he loves them just like they are! We give him at least 2 a day to make sure that he is getting the nutrients that his body needs.

For many of us this is a decent way to add vitamins and minerals to our diets....so for that reason....it seems like a decent product. But.... Why does this company insist on adding sucralose to its products? Surely there must be ways in 2019 to produce a healthier product without including sucralose or other artificial sweeteners. There are a lot of us out here that DO NOT want artificial sweeteners like sucralose in the foods we drink or eat. For those wishing a healthier lifestyle or are dealing with illnesses....we would prefer keeping ingredients like sucralose out of our foods products!
