Diabetes Relief: Glucerna Nutritional Shake

Very Good Tasting

I've been a Boost user for several years but I have a very high risk of developing Diabetes, so am trying to cut back on sugars and such. I wasn't too sure if I'd like this, as many drinks and such for diabetics or people with low blood sugar tend to taste pretty nasty. I was pleasantly surprised when I tried this. No nasty aftertaste, or mucusy taste or feeling that many nutritional drinks have that can be really gaggy after awhile. It isn't watered down either like some low calorie or diabetic type drinks are. Just wish it wasn't so expensive, but it's definitely my go to nutritional drink now

Best Tasting Diabetes Shake

I have used these shakes for a few years now. I use them as a quick meal replacement for breakfast or lunch if I am on the go. During some recent medical issues, I was a bit nauseous, but I could always drink these. They are great tasting and give a lot of nutrients. I do wish that they had a little more protein in them. Anyway, now that I am feeling better, I still use these shakes because I like them. Once in a while, I even use them to make 'real' shakes....I put one in a blender with banana, ice, a tsp. of sugar-free pudding and a few drops of vanilla extract.....A great (and filling) way to start my day

Surprisingly tasty

My home is a mad house in the morning trying to get two kids ready for the day. I continually find myself skipping breakfast so I wanted to try some kind of nutritional shake that I could drink while rushing to work. I'm glad I found this shake. Yes, it says it is specifically designed for people with Diabetes. But don't let that stop if you don't have Diabetes. If you have weight issues like I do, these shakes can still help you. Not to mention, I find it quite tasty considering how healthy it claims to be. Even though I'm overweight, I've found the shake actually does a good job curbing my appetite. I can't say that about other shakes I've tried such as Slimfast. Overall, I highly recommend the shake. I'll definitely be trying other flavors aside from the Homemade Vanilla

THESE SHAKES ARE AWESOME FOR DIABETICS WITH “NO APPETITE”. THEY WORK WELL FOR KEEPING THE WEIGHT ON A BIT.

GREAT! THANKS! keeping my husband with no appetite alive for over 4 years after having a kidney transplant,after being on dialysis 5 years, had 2 brain aneurysms, hep c which had been treated and no longer he has it. Did get Diabetes after the kidney transplant. On insulin for a few years since. Anyone who is or has lost a lot of weight due to illness please try this . My husband has been ill for years this is keeping him alive. He started taking this he was frail and down to 130 lbs. Never was his weight that low. After using this for about 6 months he is now 160. He stayed in bed before starting this most of the time. Now, he walks the dog every day. I highly recommend this product more than any other we have previously tried them all. The taste was terrible. These are wonderful. Thanks so very much

good to use when at owrk for when you cant break like nurses

use this at work where a lot of time we cant drink or take a break to eat and that makes for a long 12 hour shift. its espcially hard when you have Diabetes. Nurses are taking care of you, but NOT themselves. This product makes it easy when i feel by BS dropping I take half a bottle and the other half when i can grab another 3 minutes sometime during the 12 hours. Lost weight on it too which helped my a!C go down and BS levels

Glucerna Diabetes shakes

My husband drinks these regularly. Great for mid-morning or afternoon snack to keep his blood sugar stable. They're delicious and don't leave a mineral after taste

Taste is great, texture's a little strange.

My boyfriend has type II Diabetes, and sometimes needs a healthy meal replacement. They keep his sugars pretty stable, but aren't super filling, so or vegetable snacks or a piece of fruit are needed to make it so he doesn't crash in an hour. They are definitely best served cold - I like them over ice. There's something weird about the texture, but when it's watered down a little it's fine. Both of us prefer the chocolate ones, but these are pretty darn good. They're also great if you're sick! I had a bad reaction to some antibiotics a while back, and found that these were the only source of food I could keep down

Affordable – Worth the wait – Yummy – :-)

This product was recommended to me by my physician as I have Diabetes. (Please check with your physician first) I had to wait, yet definitely worth it. The price is affordable -whereas I wouldn't be able to afford it at the retail store. This time I got the vanilla. Next time....chocolate! Yummy but not very filling. Thank you Amazon.com for making this product affordable. I'm happy and will purchase again! :-
