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.

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!!!

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.

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.

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.

This nutritional shake works for a quick lunch to wash down a sandwich. They were designed for the diabetic in mind so they won't win a gourmet award. I buy them because they are shelf stable and do not need refrigeration. I like to buy them from Amazon because they have a longer shelf life indicating more direct form the manufacturer.

This was bought for a diabetic family member.
She loves this!
Gives her more nutrician than her usual diet and it tastes great!

I drink one container of Glucerna daily. It seems to help me keep my glucose count within designated bounds, Moreover, it is delicious.

Glucema is a very good product for diabetics. Good buy and very good service. having it come automatic helps so much.

I purchased the Glucerna Shake Creamy Chocolate Delight for my Brother who has been a diabetic for years. He likes to drink the shake at lunch time with a sandwich.
