Can us IBS'ers drink this? I was looking for something with protein and fiber without gaining weight. Just can't handle the Soy.You either love it or you don't!

I just couldn't handle it Jen! I about gag with that chalky taste in my mounth I found this Ensure Fiber with FOS today, but didn't know if the probiotics were a bad thing? Some of the ingredients: canola oil, soy protein isolate, oat fiber, corn il, soy fiber, magnesium chloride cellulose gel, soy lecithin, etc... What do you think?

Jen, I also just read that it's Lactose Free (good right?)

Sorry 'bout that. I wish you had liked it.
I'm still new enough to the diet that I'll let others answer your ingredients questions, but I do know that lactose free is good! I don't see anything that's wrong... but I would wait to see what Mags, Heather, Kree and many other experts would say!

I think I remember hearing something that wasn't good about Ensure, but unfortunately I can't remember what! What are the ingredients? Maybe someone else will remember why it bothers some people!
