Product Description
Ensure NutriVigor Chocolate 400g is the chocolate variant of Abbott's trusted high-protein powdered nutritional shake, providing approximately 8 servings per can. The chocolate flavour uses the same proven NutriVigor formula as vanilla, with the addition of cocoa powder for a rich, satisfying taste — making it a popular choice for those who prefer something more indulgent than a fruit or vanilla shake.
Each 230ml serving delivers 233 kcal, 8.65g of protein, and 1.5g of CaHMB per serving. The 400g can is particularly well suited as a trial size, or for customers who like to alternate flavours day to day. Despite being the smaller format, it delivers the complete NutriVigor formula including all 27 vitamins and minerals, Vitamin D3 at 5μg per serving, and calcium at 321mg per serving.
Gluten free and suitable for vegetarians. Not suitable for vegans. Should not replace a balanced and varied diet. For best results use as part of a daily routine of 1–2 servings alongside regular meals.
