nutritional drinks

April 1998

Clever marketing has people confused about nutritional drinks.They're not just "health" drinks...they have specific uses.

Oral supplements such as Ensure, Sustacal, Resource, and Boostare for people who don't get enough calories from food. Most arelactose-free...sweetened for taste...and provide 1 cal/ml.

Suggest Carnation Instant Breakfast for people who can drinkmilk. It provides extra protein and calories...and costs less thanEnsure and other oral supplements.
