Creamy Chocolate Taste, Low Sugar Win
These chocolate shakes are surprisingly delicious for something so low in sugar. They manage to deliver that rich, milkshake-like flavor without tasting artificial or chalky, and the texture is impressively smooth. At 15 grams of protein, they aren’t the most packed option out there, but it’s more than enough to hold you over between meals or serve as a post-workout boost.What makes them stand out is the balance: low sugar, modest carbs, decent protein, and no gritty after-feel. They’re satisfying without being overly sweet, and you’d never guess they’re a better-for-you option. Whether you're managing blood sugar or just cutting back on added sugars, these are an easy win.

Tasty, chocolatey
Sweet, tasty chocolatey drink is more like a treat than a meal. While it has a good, high protein content and low sugar, the fat is from canola oil, which is not my favorite source of fat. The sweetness seems to come from sucralose. The box comes with four packs of drinks wrapped in easy pull plastic strap which was still difficult for my parents to open. It's then sealed with a plastic shrink wrap on the neck that's relatively easy to remove and then a nice easy screw off cap. Although the bottle is so small, and the contents so tasty, you'll feel the need to finish it off once you open it. Perhaps a bit pricey but very tasty as long as you don't mind canola oil.

Tasty without the sugar
These chocolate shakes are quite good for having only 1g of sugar. I was impressed, they taste great and like a healthy equivalent of a chocolate milkshake. They're not as protein-packed as an actual protein shake, but 15g is a great quantity. These make for an easy, quick snack replacement to grab and go conveniently and without having to worry about sugar content.

Not Diabetic, But I Still Liked These Shakes
I recently had the chance to try Glucerna shakes—not because I’m diabetic (I’m not), but because I was looking for a convenient, high-protein option that wasn’t overloaded with sugar and carbs. These shakes really surprised me in a good way. The taste was smooth and reminded me of a well-mixed protein shake made with milk—rich, satisfying, and not chalky or artificial. I’ve been using them post-workout when I’m in a rush and don’t have time to blend something myself, and they’ve been a solid grab-and-go option. While they’re definitely on the pricier side, and I probably won’t keep them in my regular routine just based on cost and my specific needs, I can absolutely see the value for someone managing diabetes. With their balanced nutrition and low sugar content, they’re a great fit for that purpose.

Solid option for diabetics
This protein shake has a smooth texture and doesn’t taste chalky at all, which is a pleasant surprise. It is slightly on the sweet side for my personal taste, but not overwhelmingly so. I found it to be quite filling, it kept me satisfied for a good while. I did eventually feel hungry again, but it wasn’t urgent or uncomfortable. Overall, it’s a great option for diabetics looking for a nutritious and convenient meal or snack replacement.I only docked one star because it’s a bit on the expensive side. That said, it’s still a great option for diabetics looking for a nutritious and convenient meal or snack replacement..

Tastes Great, Filling, Chocolatey
I have to watch my blood sugar so I am pretty invested in low sugar foods. This brand is trusted and has been around for a long time. It has 15 grams of protein which can help take the edge off between meals. There are carbs in it, but they are made so you don’t get a sugar spike.Taste: It is actually very good. It does taste like a thicker chocolate milk shake. So if you are craving something sweet this will help with that.After all, we are all human and sometimes you just cave in and want something sweet. This is good for that. Also good to help take off the edge in between meals. I’m not sure you can go full meal replacement with it, some might be able to do that.

Not Gritty & DELICIOUS
I’m borderline, so watching my blood sugar has been a priority the last year. I love these shakes, not only do they taste amazing but they do NOT have a gritty texture. They do have minimal carbs, but are also very high in protein. I crave sweets often, these have been such a nice replacement to your standard sugary snacks. Even if you are not a diabetic and are just looking to reduce blood sugar spikes these are a great option. The size is just perfect. It’s enough to fill you up between meals.

Delicious drink - even a treat
Very happy with these drinks. Shared with a relative who is diabetic and she loves them. Provides a decent boost of protein, low in sugar and tastes better than most similar drinks. Recommend putting in the freezer for an hour or so to just shy of it becoming a slushy. It becomes an extra cold treat. Combined with diet/exercise changes, replacing snacks/treats with this drink has helped reduce blood sugar levels (speaking from personal experience and not saying how much of the reduction is attributed to this drink).
