Description

Glucerna Hunger Smart Shakes are for individuals managing diabetes. The Glucerna Hunger Smart Shake chocolate is rich and favorful. The homemade vnutritional shake is also a tasty treat. They can partially replace a meal or offer a delicious snack as part of a weight loss plan. Developed by Abbott Nutrition to manage hunger and diabetes, Glucerna includes a key essential nutrient--Chromium Picolinate. This nutrient helps to metabolize carbohydrates. The proprietary CarbSteady formula offers a blend of clinically-proven, slowly digestible carbohydrates to minimize blood sugar response. The formula is also rich in antioxidants that are beneficial to the immune system.

Medical studies regarding diabetes management and nutrition supplements find that slow-release carbohydrates for breakfast improve health outcomes. One study termed these nutritional drinks as nutaceuticals. "A nutraceutical is defined as a pharmaceutical-grade and standardized nutrient. Such nutraceuticals include proteins, vitamins, fiber, and electrolytes that can be found in baby formula, health bars, and supplements, such as Similac®, PediaSure®, Pedialyte®, Glucerna®, and Ensure® products manufactured by Abbott Labs."1 "Use of [diabetes-specific nutritional shakes] DSNS to replace breakfast and as an afternoon snack improves both glycemic control and behavioral factors related to dietary management of diabetes."2
