Hi sunflower70,

 

I'm not a nutritional expert so I can't really debate corn syrup.  But I do know that there are people who have trouble getting the calories or protein which they need through regular eatting.  Nutritional drinks can help these folks stay healthy so it is good for them.  No everybody should drink nutritional drinks on a regular basis.
