Description
Ensure® Surgery — Specialized Immunonutrition to Support Surgical Recovery
Ensure® Surgery is a clinically formulated nutrition shake created to support immune health and help your body recover before and after surgery. With a blend of key nutrients, it’s designed to go beyond basic nutrition so your body has the support it needs when it needs it most.
Key Benefits & Highlights
- High-quality protein (18 g per serving) — helps support tissue repair and lean body mass during the stress of surgery.
- Includes arginine (≈ 4.2 g) — a conditionally essential amino acid known to support immune function and wound healing.
- Omega-3s (EPA & DHA ≈ 1.1 g) — derived from fish oil, this blend supports modulation of inflammation during recovery.
- Calorically dense (≈ 330 kcal per 8 fl oz serving) — helps meet increased energy needs without excessive fluid volume.
- Vanilla flavor, gluten-free, and suitable for lactose intolerance (not for those with galactosemia)
- Ready-to-drink & use-under-medical-supervision product — convenient and formulated for surgical nutrition protocols.
Usage & Timing Guidance
- Often recommended starting several days before surgery and continuing after, as part of a perioperative nutrition plan.
- Use under medical supervision, especially in patients with metabolic concerns (e.g., diabetes).
- Typically not used on the day of surgery, per surgical nutrition protocols.
