FAR TOO much sodium

The product is good when you need something to eat & have no time to fix food. However, the sodium is far too much & makes my legs swell. Far too much salt in my serving. I got 3 cases, vanilla, chocolate & strawberry before I found out about how the salt content!

Too expensive-Would like to try 1st before buying.

I would love to get samples of the vanilla and creamy strawberry flavors, before making a big purchase !…it’s to expensive to buy just to try and throw out and I’ve tried the chocolate one and was not to my liking of the flavor I bought. I would like to buy, but would like a sample first due to limited financial circumstances.

A blessing!

I brought these shakes for my Dad. He is a Diabetic who also had a brain tumor which causes trigeminal nerve pain. When this flares up he can't eat anything. He can drink these shakes, loves the taste. Such a blessing not to see my Dad starve and enjoy something. Thank you Glycerna!

Great breakfast option for Gestational Diabetes!

I was diagnosed with GD early in pregnancy and was struggling to find a quick and easy alternate to my work day go - a bowl of cereal. This is a life saver! Helps prevent an early morning spike, I blend with ice and some peanut butter and I'm good to go. I do have to agree that the flavor is very earthy due to all the vitamins/minerals but the extra peanut butter hides that well.

Perfect Morning Boost!

My fiance drinks one every morning to get his blood sugar stable. He doesn't have time to make breakfast all the time, so this is a great way for him to get out the door and drink it on the way to work. I always make sure he has the chocolate shakes on hand. Great product!!

Bottles are too hard to open

My mother has diabetes and her doctor recommended Glucerna. Unfortunately, she cannot open the bottles because her hands are weak. She’s tried using a device that works for her on other jars and bottles, but sadly no luck with the Glucerna bottles. Guesss we’ll have to try another brand.

Glucerna as Therapeutic Nutrition

Glucerna is used as therapeutic nutrition in my household for my mother. My mother is diabetic and is challenged with Alzheimer's. Her difficulty with eating and swallowing is real. Glucerna, used to supplement her meals, is easy for her and simply a GodSend. Although I'm not diabetic, I do enjoy Glucerna as a snack, particularly the chocolate! Glucerna is a healthy meal supplement :-)

Love the taste, but

Because of the soy and carrageenan, I am going to have to find another option. The reaction I am having to both is causing me stomach issues and pain. I would recommend this to someone only if they had no issues or allergies to either of those components.

Found my new fav!!!

I've been buying the chocolate shakes for three years now and I always buy that flavor. But one day, the store was out of chocolate so I thought I'd try the butter pecan flavor and OMG! So good....especially if you drink them cold. I don't have time in the morning before work to make myself breakfast and so I drink one every morning. I can drink them on my way to work too. It keeps me filled until lunch. Can't wait to try it blended with ice.

Request Improved Accessibility on Bottle Seals

Very good product BUT… I am writing to bring to your attention an accessibility issue with the plastic seals on your protein shake bottles. My mother, who has Parkinson’s, finds it very challenging to open the seals due to their thickness and the difficulty in gripping and tearing them. It would be greatly beneficial if you could consider incorporating an easier-to-open design or an assistive feature for individuals with mobility issues. This change would not only help my mother but also many others who face similar challenges. Thank you for considering this feedback. I look forward to see an improvement in the design
