If it’s what the doctor ordered….
I’m unsure what all the fuss is about these pre-surgery drinks. These are designed for a specialty purpose and are not meant to replace your favorite beverage at Starbucks. So if this is an expectation, I guess you might be disappointed. Are they “yuck” or “blah”? No. While I am not one who orders sweet drinks for my go-to, these are definitely sweet - but they are fine. In my case, I took my morning and mid-day doses with with a shot of espresso - which took the edge off this drink. I suppose one could even mix the coffee with the drink if they were so inclined. Again, these are for pre- and/or post- surgery recovery, or whatever application designated by your physician. The directions on the packaging are simple - “chill” and “shake well”. Follow those directions and it’ll be fine. I did not notice any odd flavors or textures as reported by other reviewers. Even if this were the case, I’d just do it. Are these expensive, at least right now (spring 2023) they are about $10/carton. So, yes. Did my surgeon specify this exact brand and requested I take as part of my prep? Yes. Amy I going to do what they say? Yes. There really is nothing wrong with these drinks. Tastes somewhat like a vanilla cookie dough, perhaps thicker in consistency like a smoothie that isn’t frozen. Shake well, it’ll be fine. You’re only doing this for x # days. The box of cartons (10-pack) I ordered direct from Amazon was packaged well, with an appropriate expiration date well over a year away. I definitely would not skip out on these due to some negative review.If I were to be critical of this product, I’d say the sodium content seems a bit higher than I would prefer if choosing a product. But following doctors orders.

Nice for pre-and post surgery recovery, but expensive.
While these are quite high in calories, these work great for pre-and post surgery. They’re made with an excellent blend of ingredients and probiotics necessary for healthy recovery. However, I have deducted a few stars as they are quite expensive, coming in at around five dollars per serving.

Nutritional Drink Pricing Raises Ethical Concerns
The taste of this nutritional drink is acceptable; however, it is disheartening to note that the price is exorbitantly high. It is a common occurrence in the market that whenever a product has potential medical applications, manufacturers tend to set unreasonably high prices solely for the purpose of maximizing profits. This pricing strategy raises ethical concerns and undermines the affordability and accessibility of such products, which ultimately does not align with the best interests of consumers.

Very good for its intended purpose
There are many studies suggesting the value of these drinks if used as directed before and after major surgeries. This is basically a protein drink with full serving of carbs and added arginine, fish oil, and multiple vitamins. Some have complained about a fishy taste. I really cannot make out such a taste and actually find the drink tasting very good, better than most protein drinks I have tried. Knowing I prepared optimally for an elective procedure was important to me, and even though I don’t know if those drinks actually helped, I felt prepared and my recovery was extremely speedy and uneventful, incisions healed very quickly. If I had to do another abdominal surgery, I would without hesitation use these again, even considering the steep price.
