Product Description
HOW IT WORKS
Cancer treatments can damage the gut villi, which play a vital role in nutrient absorption. The damage to the villi is the reason why many patients lose weight during treatment.
enterade helps rebuild the villi to promote better nutrient absorption so you can maintain a healthy weight throughout your course of treatment.
Cancer treatments can damage the gut barrier, creating gaps that allow harmful toxins and bacteria to enter the bloodstream. These toxins can cause symptoms such as nausea, diarrhea, and fatigue.
enterade helps close the barrier and protect your already compromised immune system from increased exposure to toxins.
Cancer treatments often lead to dehydration.
enterade is developed with HydroActive Technology to rehydrate the body better than water.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are Enterade’s origins?
Enterade’s technology originated from a 40 million dollar NASA grant to protect astronauts from the adverse effects of radiation during long duration space flights. Mission accomplished, thanks to years of pioneering science by a dedicated team of world class oncologists and gastroenterologists.
An epiphany ensued: Cancer treatment creates the same intense GI toxicity as deep space radiation. Enterade was born and tasked with a new mission: help reduce the cancer treatment side effects of oncology patients back on Earth. 4 published, peer reviewed clinical studies, 40,000 patients successfully treated at over 200 leading cancer centers, and thousands of testimonials later, another mission accomplished.
The technology behind Enterade is now being applied to help address a range of GI diseases and disorders, recently culminating in the “Innovation of the Year” award from the University of Florida, and partnerships with leading consumer health companies.
How is Enterade different from electrolyte enhanced hydration beverages?
While studies conducted by the United States Army, Penn State University, and Sonoma State concluded that Enterade is more hydrating than sports drinks, oral rehydration solutions, and water, Enterade is more than just a hydration drink. Enterade was formulated specifically for patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation to help repair the gut from the damage caused by these treatments. While chemo and radiation target rapidly dividing cancer cells, they also target the healthy, non-cancerous cells that line the intestines called the villi. When the villi are destroyed, the ability to absorb nutrients is compromised. Also, gaps form in the protective barrier, allowing harmful toxins and bacteria to enter the bloodstream. This results in nausea, diarrhea, dehydration, malaise, fatigue, and unwanted weight loss. Enterade helps to rebuild the villi to promote nutrient absorption and healthy weight maintenance and close the barrier to help decrease instances of diarrhea, nausea, dehydration, fatigue, and malaise.
How does Enterade help repair the gut?
Enterade’s parent company, Entrinsic Bioscience, was the first to discover that novel combinations of amino acids modulate epithelial transmembrane proteins via cell signaling to help address diseases. Enterade is formulated with a patented, proprietary concentration of five plant-based amino acids: L-aspartic acid, L-valine, L-serine, L-threonine, and L-tyrosine. When used in combination, these amino acids have been clinically proven to regrow the intestinal villi and close the protective barrier (think “leaky gut syndrome”) to promote increased nutrient absorption and weight maintenance as well as help reduce diarrhea, nausea, dehydration, fatigue, and malaise.
What are the directions for use?
For best results, Enterade should be taken on an empty stomach to maintain the integrity of the amino acid formula. Drink one 8oz. bottle two times per day at least 30 minutes before or 60 minutes after consuming food. Do not mix enterade with any other food or drinks. Best chilled or poured over ice.
Enterade was formulated to be taken the week leading up to treatment, throughout the course of treatment, and post treatment (while symptoms last). Most people experience an improvement in symptoms after 3 to 4 days of use, and significant improvement in symptoms after 7 days of continued use.
Where were the clinical trials for Enterade completed?
Enterade completed clinical trials at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Massachusetts General Hospital, 21st Century Oncology, and University of Kentucky, Markey Cancer Center. These trials resulted in four published, peer-reviewed studies demonstrating Enterade’s efficacy.

Couldnât believe it worked!
I have to admit, I didnât hold out much hope for this drink to do everything it claimed to do. After trying every type of medicine to heal my insides and get rid of severe stomach pain every time I ate, I felt hopeless. But as I watched my body lose much needed weight week after week I was willing to try anything. I had zero appetite and zero energy. I was afraid to eat but knew I couldnât go on like this without medical intervention like a feeding tube.After just a few days of drinking it *as directed* I was able to start eating small amounts of bland food without pain. Fast forward to a few weeks later and Iâm starting to eat more regularly, the weight loss has slowed down, and more energy is returning from the much needed calories Iâm able to eat.Before starting Enterade, I had lost 20+ lbs in just 3 weeks. This past 3 weeks Iâve only lost 2lbs. My hope is at my next chemo treatment the weight loss has stopped or maybe even gained a few pound (fingers crossed!). I get treatment every 3 weeks so thatâs my measuring stick.Is it cheap: no. Is it a delightful, fruity cocktail: no. But this is medicine. And after years of continuous chemo & radiation & truly terrible procedures Iâve been through â this is really not that big of a deal. Treat it as the medicine it is and itâll make it easier to take (it really isnât that bad tho!).After all, we are in the fight for our lives.Treat it that way. Hold your nose is you have to!**Since Enterade is a medical food its super important to take as directed. Take on an empty stomach 30mins before any other liquids or food or 1 hour after eating. I find the best way to do this is to drink one bottle first thing in the morning and again right before I go to bed.I drank 2 bottles a day at first which got pretty expensive. But once my gut was able to handle food again and digest it correctly (without going right through me – TMI!), I am able to achieve the same affects drinking only 1 bottle a day now.Donât be shy about calling your insurance either! Thatâs why we have it, right. Ask them their process for reimbursement since this is a legit medical food. My insurance did.Yeah, not a quick process but itâs nice having that money back in my pocket!Good luck and hang in there. We got this!

Fabulous product
If you’re under going chemo, this is a blessing. Yes, it’s pricey. Yes, it helps. Both the watermelon and the mixed berry flavors are good.

I ordered orange but received vanilla.
Product in general is good for what i need it for but the vanilla flavor in my opinion is not good which is why I ordered orange.

Was skeptical but seems to help
I am a very skeptical purchaser. I always check reviews before buying anything. Iâm currently going through chemotherapy and was wondering if there was anything out there to help my nausea besides pills with awful side effects. Then I saw enterade. I looked at the website and read the reviews. Someone said to take it starting the day before your infusion. I decided to try it. Almost all the reviews were great about it helping, just bad about the price. First I tried the vanilla. Yuck! The flavor was awful but it did seem to help. That was the first treatment I didnât have to go back the week after for more fluids because I was so weak from not eating. Now I just completed my 4th infusion treatment. Iâm at that week past point and feeling pretty good! Still a little nauseous, but I stopped drinking the drinks and stopped nausea pills. No need for more fluids either! Im not sure what it is about this drink, but give it a try and donât listen to anyone else if it helps you. The berry flavor is the best one Iâve had. Watermelon is 2nd. Hope this helps someone else.

Game Changer
Just finished cycle 2 of BEP chemo for testicular cancer. One more round to go!! This drink is a game changer. It honestly tastes great to my chemo taste buds, nearly refreshing, and has kept my GI track near normal. That says a lot considering the heroic amount of anti nausea and pain killers Iâm prescribed. Itâs working so well, Iâve been gifted two cases. I literally only ask for Enterade (and lemon drops) when people offer gifts. Iâm sorry if youâre a chemo patient, but this drink is a miracle. It will help. Wish it was more affordable, but it really does work.

All 12 drinks were damaged, can not return.
Our recent order came and all 12 bottles were damaged, there was white residue all over the inside of the box where the liquid spilled out of the plastic bottles and dried. Many of them look like they were vacuumed/imploded or crushed. The box from the company did not appear to be damaged/dropped from the outside and neither did the larger amazon box or the other items in it. This is very clearly a manufacturing/packaging defect but we cant even initiate a return! I’m hoping the company will reach out and walk me through some process to initiate a return or replacement, they’re too expensive not to have a process to return defective product.My wife loves these, says they really help but they’re very expensive and we cant keep ordering them if they’re broken and we can’t get them fixed. She said the mixed berry is the best (we ordered 12 specifically of those this time).Will update my review if we’re able to fix this since they do make my wife feel better after treatment. @seller @Enterade @Entrinsic Bioscience LLC.

Better than the Vanilla.
The Mixed Berry flavor is ok. The Vanilla is undrinkable.
Abysmal
Quenches thirst, watermelon flavour neutral , wish I could drink it by the gallon
On 12th Radiation, 3rd Chemo and second case of Enteaid. Have about 5 weeks left. Cheaper than a martini.Right on schedule my throat is so sore I have trouble swallowing but Enteraide Watermelon goes down smooth, quenches my throat and mouth. I have to sip it because it is so expensive. Grapes, strawberries and blueberries went from wonderful to so acidic I can not eat them. BodyArmor I was drinking fruit flavour burns the same. I’m going to try so neutral Gatorade and see how that goes. Don’t really know if I get GI help. I would recommend this if you can afford it. Cancer Sucks.
