Hi! my daughter is 10 years she drank pediasure when she was 9 and she has gained a nice height in this 1 year. But recently someone told me that this milk is not good it has side effects that are harmful. Now there is another daughter of mine of age 13 she is quite short compared to my younger daughter so please inform me should we give her that milk for increasing her height? I am a little afraid. Thank you.

Pediasure is a nutritional supplement for children aged 2?13 years of age. It mainly contains vitamins, minirals and protein and no growth hormone. You should know the cause of less growth of your child so that cause is found which can be treated. For this please consult an endocrinologist who will guide you properly after clinical evaluation of your child. He may suggest some tests also.
