Snuggle weather rocks!
I have recently began drinking Boost energy drink. Does anyone know if these things really are healthy or are they snake oil products?

"Water, sugar, corn syrup solids "...wait wait wait.
First off, sugar and corn syrup = no no's when it comes to being truly healthy.
This may have a tiny bit of nutritional value, based on a bit of vitamins I see they add, but it's nothing to write home about.
So I wouldn't say it's really all that healthy.
There are some good alternatives if you're looking for a protein type shake. Good, healthy mixes out there that would be better for you than this.

Yes, i hear you. It's hard for me to eat well or eat anything at that time at all on a regular basis.
Someone did mention getting some frozen fruit (sans syrup) and put it in a blender with a little milk and sugar ....or if you want to be even healthier get some stevia. Stevia blends well with milk. And doesn't raise your blood sugar.
Healthy alternatives though...as far as protein shakes are like this :
Natures Plus Spiru Tein Vanilla Protein
Nature's Plus Spiru Tein Whey Chocolate
...etc. They have other flavors in the Nature's Plus line.
(I'm a supporter of Natures Plus. I feel like they're pretty decent health-wise. )
Btw, sorry if I am giving too much info. I am learning, and this is really good for me.
I'm starting school in January to be a Naturopathic Doctor ...so it's one of my passions to try to help
