I bought more than a case of Ensure by Abbott labs http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=2...

before looking closely at the ingredients and was horrified when I read an 8oz. serving contains 23 grams of sugar!
I decided to formulate my own drink using some of the following ingredients to better Ensure less sugar.

unsweetened almond milk
organic hemp protein powder
bananas (too much sugar?)
cinnamon
vanilla
egg yokes


Also some suggestion on the ratio of ingredients.
I will be using a 2 liter Vitamix to make up large batches that I can refrigerate for later use. I'm 58 and need the extra muscle plus any additional weight I can hold as 160 is a bit frail for 6ft. (although I maintain cat-like reflexes at my current mass)

My initial purpose of buying the Ensure was to save money by quickly drinking my lunch instead of taking a long unpaid lunch break and also to save the traveling for and buying a lunch @8 to 10 bucks a day. I plan to drink 32 ounces of this during a work day. Maybe also carry an apple or such. I already carry a 40 ounce Kleen Kanteen of good water with a dropper of Lugols and a 1/2 teaspoon of Real Salt. I do hard physical manly work similar to working in a coal mine or being a Navy Seal, think like......3 ring circus.
