Calorie drinks for kids...

When it comes to calorie drinks (pediasure, kid essentials, etc..) Is there one that is better than the rest? Ella needs all the help she can get. She lost a true pound in one week and even though I expected it, I would like to prevent it especially since a dose increase takes effect today....

Re: Calorie drinks for kids...

  • I don't know about being "the best" but P never cared for any of the kid's calorie drinks, but would drink the chocolate or strawberry Carnation better than anything else we tried.  She preferred the pre mixed stuff, but would drink the powder if I mixed it and then left it in the fridge to cool down before shaking and serving.

  • I have both Pediasure and Carnation for Aubrey.. They are about the same amount of vitamins (although the Pedisure has a bit more protein) but the Carnation mixed with whole milk has more fat and calories. They are both expensive.. Pediasure is $10 for 6 bottles but the Carnation is about $4 for 10 packets that you can mix with whole milk. They also sell the Carnation packets in bulk at Costco and I'd be more than happy to pick some up for you!
