BRING BACK OLD FORMULA:(

Bring back the old formula. My toddler son will not drink the new water based formula and the old formula is to hard to find now. Why would you fix something that wasn't broken? Not sure why you changed it but please give us an option to pick which type of formula we want to purchase.

I love this product

I have a five year old with autism as well as a sensory processing disorder. My child is a very picky eater and only eats about five different foods . Pediasure helps give him the nutrients he misses during meals . 2x a day and he is in the 70% percentile for his height and weight for his age group.

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.

Great for picky eaters!

My youngest son was born eight weeks premature due to a medical condition I developed during my pregnancy. He was very small and on many medications when he finally came home at three months old. By the time he turned one year old, his dietician and I decided to try him on Pediasure for the extra calories. He was a very picky eater due to sensory issues he had. He would only eat dry, crunchy foods and I was concerned that he wasn’t getting all of the nutrients he needed. We used Pediasure Peptide and had great success. He is now two years old and he weighs twenty five pounds. He has a cup of “milk” with every meal. The Pediasure Peptide worked great with his GI issues and never caused him any problems. I do highly recommend this as a supplement.

6 percentile

At our boy's 6yo check up his pediatrician said his weight was in the 6 percentile. He needed to gain weight. Being autistic and having a 'set' list of foods he ate we were very puzzled on how to introduce 'weight gaining' foods to his diet. Kai loves McDonald's strawberry/banana shakes so when we saw these shakes we thought we would give it a try...his first reaction was negative to the taste...BUT, he loves them now! he has gained 2 lbs in a week!

They never outgrow the yummy addition to the lunch

My twin sons now 14 started with Pediasure almost immediately after traditional formula. The pediatrician recommended it for the smaller one but you know twins the other guy wants what his brother has. Both boys are now tall almost 6feet and strong. After school restarted after the Pandemic the cafeteria was still closed and I started packing the Pedicure in the lunch boxes to ensure whatever I packed if they didn't want it they would have nutrition during the school day. They STILL insist on a bottle a day. It's worth it.

Bring Back Old Formula

My twins are 18months are not even on the growth chart, we started Pediasure and they were gaining weight finally. Since the formula change we now have to fight with them to even drink a couple ounces a day and their weight has stalled. Please Please bring back to old formula!!

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.

Very Happy Child

My son is a very picky eater to the point where he didn't want to eat anything but cookies and chips. I was thinking maybe i should bring him to the Dr but i really don't want him to take meds that will blow him up. So one day i was in the store and i said maybe we should try pedisure. He was with me so i let him pick what kind he wanted and he picked vanilla. Well he calls it "The Giraffe Milk" because of the giraffe on the bottle. He tells everyone that he is wants to get tall like the giraffe that's why he drinks it. He Loves it...

It's a good product

My son will only drink it at bedtime and i always have to mix it with milk. Because if he drinks it straight it will run right through him. I don't like paying the high cost for a product that i know does not cost anywhere near that much to make. But it gives me piece of mind knowing that my son gets the extra vitamins and minerals that he may not have eaten while i was at work.
