Ensure Compact Banana Nutrition Shake - 4 x 125ml

Ensure Compact Banana Nutrition Shake is a ready-to-drink oral nutritional supplement supplied in a convenient pack of 4 x 125 ml bottles. Each bottle delivers approximately 300 kcal of energy and about 12.8–13 g of protein, along with a broad spectrum of 28 essential vitamins and minerals tailored to help support nutritional intake, maintenance of muscle mass, and overall energy requirements in individuals with a poor appetite, difficulty consuming larger volumes of food, or at risk of disease-related malnutrition.

This banana-flavoured, milkshake-style drink is designed to be nutritionally complete (for vitamins and minerals when 625 ml is consumed) and can be used as a supplement to regular diet or as a sole source of nutrition under medical supervision. The small volume and palatable flavour make it an accessible option for those struggling with appetite or increased nutritional needs.

Ensure Compact Banana is gluten-free, lactose-free, and suitable for Halal, Kosher and vegetarian diets (flavour/label dependent; always check packaging).
