It works! Second round of Pediasure for us

My 5 year old son had cancer when he was a toddler, which required a golf ball size tumor be removed from his face and 6 months of chemo. He drank Pediasure during chemo to keep up his weight when his appetite was absent. He’ll celebrate 4 years cancer free in September! Before then we’re back drinking Pediasure to help him gain weight for a procedure to start repairing the scar on his face. He loves the strawberry and gladly drinks it with lunches and as a snack. I’ve seen him gain a little tummy and fat pads on his sides over the past two months and could not be happier!

It’s not bad

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this for my nephew. He is actually gaining weight now. The kid was super small, and this made him look healthier. I had gotten the chocolate and it was ok. It smelled like chocolate, but tasted a bit chalky. It also needs to be mixed really well or it will be grainy.

Love the strawberry but .....

We do pedi-sure when my daughter is refusing to eat anything. Pediatrician confirmed it was ok. She loves the strawberry flavor. She doesn't like artificial strawberry flavoring as much so I generally taste it first to confirm. Powder we haven't had a problem. Unfortunately this batch of the liquid the vanilla was labeled as strawberry. Noticed the color difference and tasted it. Vanilla, thankfully had strawberry in the fridge so it's not an issue for us. For a picky child like ours I would get powder if possible.

PediaSure strawberry shakes are now off white in color due the removal of red 3. We left the color of the shake on the PediaSure strawberry labels pink to help differentiate the strawberry flavor from vanilla on store shelves. The strawberry formulations have “actual product color not depicted on label” callout on the front of the label. Our team would like to speak with you to learn more and see how we can help.

Seafood allergy

I used this product for my daughter when she was younger, so I know it's a very good product because it worked great for her.. I now have a four year old who has egg and seafood allergy,..... So after purchasing 3 bottles of the pediasure ... Before I open the bottle I decided to read every single ingredients, only to discover that it contains tuna oil... So therefore my son cannot consume this product... I wish you all can make a pediasure without any seafood ingredient in it.. Also please list contains " tuna oil". There are many children who has eggs and seafood allergy.

Love the taste

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter is a peaky eater so she doesn’t like the taste of some products but with this new Pediasure powder I haven’t had any problem to make her drink it. She does even ask for more. I do really recommend this Pediasure

Excellent base for smoothies!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kiddo is four and a half, and she goes through spells where she doesn't want any of the food I have to offer (and she's really not a picky eater, at all... it's just like she doesn't have an appetite.) Smoothies are always a hit, but I struggled to find a base for them (all my protein powders were geared for adults, or had too much caffeine etc) to ensure proper nutritional value... well, in walks PediaSure, and I've got to tell you, my kid loves this stuff! Some evenings she would ask for it by itself, too!

Taste is excellent, but too many risks!

If your baby/toddler is still in diapers, be sure to pay attention to diaper rash. With my little one it is always the first sign of sensitivity or allergy to a food. Unfortunately, he is definitely allergic to this! The tuna oil is my first suspect, because he's allergic to fish. We checked the ingredients before giving to him, but thought maybe since tuna oil was about halfway down the list that such a small amount wouldn't bother him. And the pediatrician advised trying tiny amounts every so often as he got older. Carrageenan is another concern; research it. Artificial colors and flavors are more biggies. We only gave four ounces!

Wrong flavor in a wrong bottle

So I got a pack of strawberry flavored pediasure for my kids,and it turned out to be vanilla... I opened like 3 and it was the same. So I bought another one,and it was still the same... please make it makes sense. My kids love strawberry flavored.. I am left with 2 packs of pediasure with no kids to take them. What am I to do with this?!!

Super convenient!

My toddler LOVES the taste and it’s super convenient that it comes pre made. We take it on the go and it’s super easy. He’s made steady progress with his growth and we are so thankful to have Pediasure! His favorites are vanilla, chocolate and strawberry flavor! :)
