BOOST Original Drink

We have been drinking Boost every morning for about three years now. It tastes great, very filling as our breakfast drink along with a piece of toast. Info on the bottle says not to freeze, but we love it partially frozen. We believe for us its a great way to start our day!

really "boosts" energy

Great as a meal replacement and maintaining weight.

I take a senior citizen multivitamin in the morning and one of these drinks before bed. I wake up easily without any brain fog. I'm not in any discomfort from the sugar or the dairy. It tastes good too.

They taste great, though I can't say they do anything for me one way or another. I haven't noticed any additional energy or anything from drinking one each day.

Great taste, superior ingredients for superior results. High protein & great value. Exactly as Described & arrived on time.

This drink is very smooth (not grainy or chalky), thick and creamy, and has a very rich chocolate flavor. I prefer them as cold as possible (they should NOT be frozen) and I usually drink them as a breakfast replacement, because I detest eating breakfast except sometimes on weekends. At only 240 calories they are perfect for me (I'm on a diet; a simple, very effective one where I simply endeavor to burn more calories than I consume on a daily basis so I'm a calorie counter). They are filling enough that I can either go light on lunch or skip it altogether and not feel too hungry. I limit myself to just one per day, but occasionally might have a second later in the day. The bottles have a long shelf life but have to be consumed within 24 hours after opening. I have read some complaints about the 20g of sugar in each 8oz bottle. My opinion is, unless you have or are predisposed to a medical condition that requires you to watch or limit your sugar intake, there's no reason to get all wide-eyed over it. If it bothers you, just plan to reduce sugar in some other part of your diet and I think you'll be fine. The taste, which is of course subjective, is very good. It does have a slight 'milky' taste and I'm not a big fan of milk, but it's totally a non-issue as the rich chocolate flavor more than makes up for it. I don't think it tastes medicine-y at all, as some have said. But again that's subjective. Overall, I give this drink 5 stars without hesitation because it fulfills all my criteria; meal replacement, rich in nutrients, great tasting and not terribly expensive. I haven't tried any of the other flavors because I'm a chocolate lover and therefore have no real desire to. I do suggest you see if you can find this in a store and maybe get one bottle or a smaller quantity to see if you'll like it. They're seventeen bucks for a 12-pack at my local Walgreens, so it's a better deal through Amazon.

My mother will drink these when she will not eat anything else. Great alternative
