Preoperative Carbohydrate Loading Comparison

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Guidelines

Immune-supporting nutrition shake; drink 2-3 shakes per day, 5-7 days before and after surgery.

For carb loading before surgery; drink 2 bottles the night before and 1 bottle up to 2 hours prior to surgery.

For continued recovery, drink 2 shakes per day.

One 10-fl-oz bottle of Ensure Pre-Surgery contains 50 g of carbohydrates, the amount recommended by ERAS Society guidelines for preoperative carb loading.‡ A patient would have to drink more than twice that amount of the leading sports drink at a time to get the same amount of recommended carbohydrates. Ensure Pre-Surgery is low in osmolality, which means it leaves the stomach quickly.5 That allows a patient to drink it up to 2 hours before surgery and can mean reduced postoperative nausea and vomiting.6,7

‡Studies conducted using formulas containing similar nutrients as Ensure Pre-Surgery. Be sure to follow the nutrition program recommended by your doctor.
