  Like other types of nutritional supplements, Ensure shakes are formulated to help meet the daily requirements for nutrients that adults may be lacking, whether from a hectic schedule or an unbalanced diet. Ensure comes in a variety of types and flavors, and can be enjoyed as a nutritious breakfast, lunch or snack. The homemade vanilla flavor was used for the comparison of ingredients.
