Liz,
The calcium casienate , and the whey protein concentrate are both derived from dairy. I personally i would not use Ensure myself let alone on my herps. There alot of other higher quality meal replacement drinks on the market. There is alot of atificial stuff in ensure. If you need to fatten a rhac up, I would choose one of Allen Repheshy's diets. All the ingredients are from whole food sources. The Ensure is way to high and sugars and sodium also.
