Pre-Surgery, Clear Carbohydrate Drink, Strawberry, 10 fl oz, 4 Count

Good for colonoscopy prep. Tastes okay, but is a tad on the sweet side. Nice break from Gatorade during clear liquid only days. Good way to keep calories and carbs up with palatable texture. Price on par with similar products.

My doctor recommended this product as part of my preparation for a surgical procedure. I wasn't expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised. GOOD NEWS: • Great Value for the price • Great quality - It tastes absolutely delicious. • Only 6g of sugar. • 50g of carbohydrates. • 200 calories. • Contains the antioxidants zinc and selenium. • Certified kosher by the Orthodox Union. THINGS TO KNOW: • This is not intended to be a complete meal replacement. • It contains no saturated fat or trans fat. • It provides 0g of protein, dietary fiber, calcium, and potassium. These aren't really drawbacks—they're intentional. This product is formulated specifically for pre-surgery nutrition, so its nutritional profile is designed to meet that purpose rather than serve as a balanced meal. Overall, I was very impressed. The taste was far better than I expected, and I found it soothing and easy to drink. If your doctor recommends this product as part of your pre-surgery preparation, I would definitely recommend it.

These new clear protein and energy drinks designed to ease fasting before surgery are wonderful. This is the carb version, so diabetics need to be careful. There is also a protein version. Both taste great, but better cold. No longer need to be starving and dehydrated for many hours. Check with your doctor to see how close to surgery you can drink this. I think it’s a lifesaver. I recently had a scan that required some fasting, but clear liquids were allowed up until the procedure. So Ensure came in handy! Highly recommend.

This review is for Ensure Pre-Surgery, Clear Carbohydrate Drink, Strawberry, 10 fl oz, 4 Count. The surgeon required two of these on a pre-surgery timetable. The person who needed these said they tasted just fine and drank one at room temperature and the other cold. Admittedly, these are surprisingly high cost, but I assume it is because of the pre-surgery labeling to get a premium. There is research to show that pre-op carb-loading drinks reduce insulin resistance, lowers postoperative nausea & vomiting, can potentially short hospital stays, and improves patient comfort.

Got these for colonoscopy “clear liquids” prep day and they really helped a lot. I got a lot, 2 packs, but I really only needed 1. They’re surprisingly filling despite just being liquid. Helped with the hunger and I was able to sleep a solid 7 hours before the procedure and everything turned out well. I’m going to recommend them to others I know if they’re going through the same thing. The taste is ok, honestly I thought it would be worse but it’s decent. Just like a sweet liquidy strawberry. I’ll definitely keep these in mind for future procedures as well.

Tastes is ok. That’s a lot of praise from me. I am very picky. Like a 5 yr old. I managed to drink the whole thing and my surgery went great.

This product provided needed nourishment for a required clear liquid diet. It tastes good, but it is entirely too sweet for my taste.

Awesome flavor and they have really helped me to get my body healthier for my upcoming surgery.

Excelente llego en buenas condiciones y el precio es justo para lo que ayuda previo a la cirugía

I would encourage anyone to utilize this drink pre- surgery. I would have bought the whole set (the pre and post) if I had had more warning about the date of surgery. It is excellent in supporting your body through the surgical time.
