 Glucerna Shake Chocolate DelightNov 02, 2010
By V. Doerfer

My wife's doctor recommended Glucerna shakes for her in-between meal snacks. She chose the Glucerna chocolate flavor and was very disappointed. Too heavy an artificial chocolate flavor. After tasting some I agree the company has to go back to the drawing board and come up with a better, normal, every day candy bar-like chocolate flavor like "Glucoburst" which is also available at Amazon.Com It is not a thick shake but is great tasting. Also, Victus.com has their "Enterex Diabetic" a thick shake which beats most diabetic shakes for flavor and has no fructose or corn syrup,check it out. Don't settle for just any brand just because it says "for a diabetic". Try at least three or four different companies before settling on a brand without fructose added if possible. Check out "fructose & diabetics" on the web also log onto the "nutrition reporter.com", their article has some very, very negative information regarding fructose and corn syrup. Please read the article it's very informative. Good luck in your quest for better tasting protein shakes.

 Great tasting thingFeb 09, 2009

I actually liked this shake. I tried it today at Costco at their sample table and ensured that they did not mix other stuff with it, and found it extremely palatable. I think that this might make a great in between meal snack or a good breakfast, both used for a great weight management plan, in my case. I don't really care if this is for diabetics or not, as I am not one, but I think it can be a useful meal replacement (little more protein will help here) or snack just because it tastes good, and it is really really hard to find something that tastes good.
Thumbs up!!!

Way better than other simular productsApr 11, 2009
By Songbird
I've used every diet shake and the other brand of "Diabetic supplement shake" that is available out there... In my opinion: For taste and effectiveness, hands down, this stuff is great. It mixes up great, no clumps of crud when you get to the bottom of the bottle. I think it tastes good, but it has to be really chilled.

Glucerna helpsJun 26, 2011
By Still a kid

I have Type 2 diabetes. When I feel like my blood sugar is dropping I drink one of these. I did not get the plastic bottles, I received the metal/aluminum cans. This is probably a good thing. Once a plastic bottle of Glucerna slipped out of the plastic holder and dropped on the floor. There was chocolate Glucerna everywhere. It took several cleanings to get it off the floor and wall, not to mention my refrigerator. I like the metal cans.

Glucerna Shake Creamy Chocolate DelightAug 16, 2010
By Daniel P. Isaac
This shake is delicious. Only 200 calories with 5gm fiber and 10gm protein. I like to chill one for 30 min in the freezer before drinking. Only problem is that this Glucerna shake tastes too good. It's an effort to limit myself to 2 per day.
