    I was wondering what was in it too... wondering what could be so amazing and great that it would be worth putting 2 failure to thrive babies on a starvation diet in order to force them to "break down" and eat it.

    It's pretty much a multi vitamin dissolved in a milk-like liquid. It's not harmful.

    And really this chick is having a hard enough time making this decision so I don't think critiquing pediasure is going to help...

    I'd say it's more accurate to say it's dissolved in sugar water.
