Saved the Day With My Picky Toddler

I had a baby girl who decided she wasn’t going to like any sort of milk product. The doctor said she was a little small for her age and needed to start drinking milk. I tried EVERYTHING to no avail. On top of that, my baby has a chocking issue. It’s very hard for her to swallow things without gagging. So I was worried she wasn’t getting proper nutrition from regular foods. I was super stressed and at a loss on what to do. Someone suggested Pediasure, and I thought “she’s gonna hate it”. Here we are: a year later, and I can’t get her to STOP drinking Pediasure. She has gained weight and is thriving in every way. Thank you for bailing us out, Pediasure! I don’t know what we would have done had I not found this product.

Great drink!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So this milk for kids is great. My son likes it only in the morning. I tried it myself and it tastes truly good. The brand it self is great so, never second guest them. Pedia sure is a brand my family go to always. Thanks.

Sorry to say, but the taste is just not so good.

Even though my son understands why he needs to drink Pediasure, he HATES drinking it because he finds the flavor "really yucky". He sometimes gags when he forces himself to drink it. He says it's too artificial and leaves this weird aftertaste in his mouth. I tried Pediasure myself and I have to say, he's right about the flavor. Pediasure is excellent in terms of providing my son all the nutrients and calories he needs, but the flavor is just... not good at all to put it mildly. I think my son will be more than happy to drink Pediasure if it's unflavored (like Peptamen Junior) or comes in a juice form like Ensure Clear. Could you please please make Pediasure taste like Ensure Clear if possible?? Or at least make it unflavored?? I'd be really happy to buy more and have my son drink it every day. Thank you.

have used this product for years

Having 2 special needs wth weight issues is a daily battle but having pediasure to help maintain weight gives us the upper hand. Pediasure along wth special diet keeps them at a steady weight. At one point we had to go wthout it for few months- you could def tell the difference. Their doctor considers it their main source of nutrition so you know it has to be good stuff :)

It works

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried this with my kids and they liked the taste, and it worked as a meal replacement. I like the PediaSure brand products so when I was asked to try it with my kids I was up for it. If your looking to help you little gain some this is worth the try.

LOVE

My son is autistic, so he has a texture issue. He eats grilled cheese, noodles, and chicken strips, I’ve tried everything. So I had to find a nutritional substitute and because of this milk he’s stays at a healthy weight. I would recommend this to any parent that struggles with picky eaters and the kids that just need a little extra help keeping their child healthy.

Daughter loved them!

My daughter is on the tiny side in both height and weight. Even though she eats well, she plays well too. She burns as many calories as she takes in. I introduced these to her diet and I can tell a difference already and it's been 2 weeks. I will definitely continue to use these to help her grow.

It's ok

My two sons drink it everyday. My smallest son only drinks this milk versus having any full meals. It's a bit too sweet which is why they love it. It is on the expensive side for a mother like me who has to buy at least a box of 24 per week. Other then that it's a good product.

Thank you for the powder!

My son cannot tolerate carrageenan (or any other thickener/emulsifier) and he is underweight. We are so glad to have found this powdered version. I wish more stores would carry it. The liquid PediaSure was a no go for us. He would get terrible diarrhea with the liquid and we had to stop. This powder version does not contain any Carrageenan, PS-80 or those nasty Gums. He has been drinking it for a month now without any issues.
