PediaSure Shake Mix

My kids love the strawberry flavor, and I love that it’s packed with protein, vitamins, and probiotics. Easy to mix, gluten-free, and helps give them the nutrition they need every day.

Amazing value! It mixes well, tastes great, and offers my daughter so many health benefits!

We’ve struggled for so long to help my daughter gain weight, and this is the only product that’s actually made a difference. PediaSure Grow & Gain has become a regular part of her routine, and I honestly don’t know what we’d do without it.She’s a picky eater with a sensitive stomach, and it’s hard to get enough calories into her during the day. These shakes are not only packed with the nutrients she needs, but she actually likes the taste—which is a huge win. It doesn’t feel like a battle to get her to drink them.They’re super convenient too. I can toss one in my bag when we’re on the go or use them as a quick supplement between meals. I’ve seen steady, healthy weight gain and better energy since we started.Pros:✔️ Easy way to get in extra calories and nutrition✔️ Tastes good—no more mealtime battles✔️ Helps with steady weight gain✔️ Great for picky eaters or kids with low appetite✔️ Convenient bottles for on-the-goCons:✘ A little pricey, but completely worth it for the results✘ Slightly high in sugar, but I’ll take it for the benefitsFinal Thoughts:If you’re in the same boat with a child who just can’t keep weight on, this is absolutely worth trying. It’s been a lifesaver for our family and a real confidence boost for my daughter.

Pediasure has been a game changer for me when feeding my toddlers. I give them each a bottle a day if they don't eat as satisfactorily as I might want them to. It's easy to just pop a bottle open at the end of the day. They love the taste of all the flavors, and it's an effective enough meal replacement when needed. I knocked off a star because the ingredients aren't as up to par as I would like them to be (being an all-natural, organic girly especially for my kiddos), but other than that it's a decent quality toddler formula. Thankfully there's no gritty texture, or really any sort of texture, so I can recommend this for even toddlers who might be a bit picky.

My daughter has been an extremely picky eater since she started solids. At 10 months, she weighed just under 13lbs and was gaining weight slowly. She despises any food with a lumpy texture, making it challenging to introduce table food. Currently, her preference leans towards junk food like cookies and chips, although she does take a few bites of the food I offer. Most of her food intake comes from jars of baby food.At the doctor's recommendation, I stopped breastfeeding and started offering her cow's milk, which she disliked and never finished. So, the doctor sent us home with several bottles of Pediasure to sample—about 32 bottles, including the three flavors: chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry.Upon arriving home, I gave her a chocolate bottle, and she consumed about half before refusing more. The next day, I offered her the strawberry flavor, but she took only a sip before rejecting it. Curious, I tasted it myself, finding it alright, and ended up giving her the remainder of the chocolate bottle, which she drank.The following day, I opened the vanilla bottle and offered it to her, causing her to get upset, scream, and cry. Wondering if she had developed a preference, I tasted the vanilla one myself. Its taste was so unpleasant that I poured it down the drain, as it wouldn't even be fit for a starving animal. The aftertaste gave me a headache.Throughout the next month, I continued buying the chocolate bottles, and she gained a total of 2lbs during that time. The following month, while browsing the Target website, I discovered that Pediasure also comes in powdered form. I was excited because it was a slightly more affordable option than buying the bottles. Additionally, the bottles sometimes developed a metallic aftertaste when not finished immediately.So, I purchased the powdered version on Amazon. However, I wasn't inclined to follow their recommendation of mixing it with water. Firstly, it would mean fewer calories for my baby compared to using milk, and secondly, it just didn't seem appealing. Instead, I created a super high-calorie drink for her, ranging from 380-580 calories. Here's the recipe:- 1 serving (1/3 cup) Pediasure powder (220 calories)- 1 serving (1/3 cup) Nido powdered whole milk (160 calories)- 2 to 4 tbsp heavy cream (50 calories each)- 4-8 oz waterI incorporate powdered milk because my daughter isn't fond of regular milk, and buying gallons of milk would go to waste. The Nido brand powdered milk actually tastes like real milk once prepared, and using it in the recipe allows me to control the drink mix's consistency. If I want it more pudding-like, I use closer to 4oz of water. If I want it similar to the Pediasure bottles, I use 8oz of water. When I tasted it, it reminded me of hot chocolate drink mix after adding powdered milk. It could even trick kids into drinking it if you microwave it, add marshmallows, and claim it's hot chocolate. However, I haven't had to trick my daughter into drinking it at all.Since I started giving her one of these drinks a day, she has gained 2lbs in one month. She enjoys it much more than the bottled version, which required constant encouragement to drink. When made with milk instead of water, I would definitely give this powdered drink mix 5 stars. I can't rate it when made with water since I haven't tried it.If you think about it, it's quite evident why they recommend making it with water. It means your child will gain weight at a slower pace and therefore require multiple drinks.

Amazing nutrition for my toddlers. Highly recommended.
