Deliciously easy nutritious vitamin boost. Knowing I can have a drink that can help me lift my nutrition especially when I'm having a lacking day of energy and when I feel like I'm feeling unwell. Really easy to use and can take anywhere with you for a quick snack boost during day.

Loving this quick option to get my gut health right noticing a huge difference and now my partner has even started using it

easily dissolves when mixed with cold water, so its smooth not too lumpy. Vanilla flavour reminds me of the malt drinks, not overpowering sweet, just enough sweetness for the taste.

I loved everything about Ensure. The name is perfect as it "ensures" you get all the vitamins and nutrients in one single serve. The packaging is easy to read and very informative. I have tried it as a shake, in porridge and also mixed with yoghurt and fruit. Love love loved it.

it’s delicious in a smoothie. I love the vanilla ensure with yogurt and fruit and I like the chocolate one to drink on its own
