My personal opinion....the juice beverages are disgusting. VERY strong vitamin taste...and makes my tongue feel fuzzy afterward. Yuck!
<br />
<br />I don't think the CIB in the can is all that bad...I actually prefer it to Ensure. But I guess at my age...I drink them down like most people take shots or liquor <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

I think for DS it's a texture thing because they're thicker than milk or milk with CIB. I have friends whose daughters LOVE the VHC -- one drinks one every morning for breakfast. Another friend's daughter pretty much only "eats" VHC; however, both of them have been drinking something similar -- boost, pediasure, since they were a year or so old. And one HATES the mixed CIB, which DS doesn't seem to mind.

I emailed Nestle to see if they gave out samples of their juice beverage, but their response was that they had too many requests. Gee, after the hundreds of $ I spend each year on CIB powder, they can't cough up a sample <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> Oh well, I found some at the local CVS, and will give it a try one of these days. Just didn't want to order up 3 cases from the creon program and find out it makes him GAG!

I placed an order the start of April for DS' Source CF vitamins and Ensure Enlive Beverages and have yet to receive them. I've tried finding their contact information online, without any luck. I know I've got their phone #, but they're only open on weekdays. Has anyone else had issues receiving their beverage and vitamin orders? Usually it's only taken 4-6 weeks...

Tried creating a new post but unable to do so....

We placed an order around mid April and just received the package this past Thursday.

This is the info that I have for them...

I can't find any web or email info.

Maybe they were out of stock of the product you wanted. I know one time they called because they did not have the drink we wanted and weren't sure when it would come back into stock. They asked me if I wanted to wait, or choose something else.

Good Luck!

I called this morning and it hasn't been 90 days since we received the last order. Apparently next week they'll be shipping it out. DS has been going thru his 3 month supply of enzymes in about 2 1/4 months, so I guess I jumped the gun. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
