What Will Happen If An Adult Drinks Similac Advance Baby Formula?

My eighteen year old daughter was dared by her friend to drink baby formula. She drank 4 ounces of Similac Advance Ready To Feed. I understand formula is mostly all nutrients but is this bad for an adult to consume?


The aging process will reverse. She will become an infant.
It’s not bad, just ridiculous. She might want to know that formula has MANY more calories than a lot of other drinks – I believe the average is about 20 calories per ounce. Tell her not to develop a taste for the stuff. Babies need those calories – grown-ups do not.
It’s better than your daughter being dared to drink 4 oz of hard liquor, but perhaps it would be good to have a talk about why you don’t always need to accept a dare when someone offers it.
I would think the worst that may happen is that it gives her a case of stomach cramps & gives her the runs.
mostly due to the fact that most baby forumla is designed for easy digestion due to sensitive tummies–as an adult–our tummies are less sensitive–even if they are called “sensitive”–so she could simply pass it easier!
which would teach her not to do it again!
Nothing will happen to her. As long as it was mixed accordingly. It has a high content of vitamins/minerals/protien/etc. So even if it was a strong dose it’s not going to hurt her if all she had was 4 oz. Her body is much bigger than a baby so it will tolerate much, much, more than she took.
We wouldn’t feed this to a baby if it was harmful stuff.
aside from the horrible aftertaste she may have to deal with she should be fine…..lol….I’ve tasted Similac formula and I can’t understand how formula fed babies eat it…guess it’s because they haven’t experienced anything else taste wise yet….
i dont think anything will happen. she might get constipated though. formula has lots of iron in it. might turn her poo green too lol.
Other than having a horrible taste in her mouth (formula tastes very bitter) she will be fine.
And what a lovely group of friends your daughter hangs out with….LOL
Its milk for babies, meaning it must be gentler, she’ll be fine and she’ll get all the nutrients she needs.
I am sorry but this is funny. You have a very brave daughter. I would have loved to see this. lol.
Lol good group of friends ur daughter has! But nothing will happend to her she may not poop 4 a few days! but thats all. It is not bad cause we give it our babies! again LOL!!!
it wont hurt her it will taste horrible though.
it is fine…it will not hurt her.
