Product Description
Ensure NutriVigor Vanilla Ready-to-Drink is the no-prep version of Abbott's trusted NutriVigor nutritional supplement — each 220ml bottle is ready to drink straight from the shelf or fridge, with no powder or mixing required. It is ideal for people on the go, those who find mixing impractical, or carers managing multiple daily supplements for a patient.
The RTD format delivers 9.9g of protein per bottle — slightly higher than the powder format's 8.65g — alongside 27 vitamins and minerals, CaHMB for muscle support, and 5μg of Vitamin D3. One key difference from the powder is that the RTD contains soy lecithin (as an emulsifier to keep the liquid stable) as well as soy protein, so customers with heightened soy sensitivity should be aware both forms of soy are present.
The RTD also contains a small amount of sweetener (acesulfame K, E950) alongside sugar, making it suitable for people with diabetes under routine glucose monitoring. Shake well before drinking. Do not heat in a microwave. Once opened, cover, refrigerate, and use within 24 hours.
