Q: Is ONEsource safe for pregnant/lactating mothers?
A: Yes. It would be safe for pregnant and lactating mothers to consume, as the nutritive values are good, the ingredients are natural protein and carbohydrates, and the vitamins are only slightly fortified. Since whole milk is known to be safe and ONEsource is free from injected GH and somatomedins, it is safe to say that ONEsource can be recommended for pregnant and lactating mothers. Though no clinical trials have been conducted, customers have noted that ONEsource is mush less likely to aggravate morning sickness than other fortified beverages. We can only postulate that this is a result of the more natural formulation of ONEsource in comparison to other beverages.
Q: Is ONEsource safe for diabetics?
A: ONEsource is safe for diabetics, for the reasons mentioned above. In my practice, I have observed that it does not raise blood glucose levels significantly, and that insulin requirements are lower. Weight gain is averted and the average obese diabetic loses about 15 lbs over a 3 month period, which is considered remarkable. Diabetic control can be streamlined better with the introduction of ONEsource.
Q: Can my baby drink ONEsource?
A: ONEsource is safe and effective for babies and growing children; though due to the higher protein content, it could be postulated that if satiety is present for a long time, infants may not gain weight appropriately. Therefore, ONEsource should not replace infant formula without the supervision of a pediatrician. One could make a case for all overweight kids, regardless of age, to be given ONEsource as a nutritional supplement which might enable them to avoid junk food and lose weight, especially fat weight.
Q: How many ONEsource servings should I drink a day?
A: Ideally, an average adult should consume two servings of ONEsource daily to get the optimal daily requirement of vitamins and minerals. The protein content of two such drinks will be adequate for daily maintenance of muscles but if strenuous activity is involved, then the recommendation for an adult would be three servings. Endurance or competitive athletes should drink four or more daily to ensure adequate tissue replenishment. As far as pediatric recommendations go, I would expect a concurrence from other physicians and pediatricians to be around one drink a day.
