KATE FARMS 1.2 Glucose Support Shake, Vanilla, 16g Protein, 12 Pack

TASTY!

If you have kidney disease and want to get more nutrition or calories in, this is a healthy option. It has whole food ingredients and little additives.

These Kate Farms shakes taste good and are easy to drink while providing solid nutrition and protein support. I like the clean organic ingredients and that they are gentle on the stomach compared to many other nutrition shakes. Convenient for meal replacement, recovery, or extra calories during the day. Arrived fresh, well packaged, and exactly as described.

Thickness? I needed to gain some weight. This stuff helped.

I just had my first vanilla flavored shake. It is a little thick (syrup consistency) and has a slight chalky texture. I would definitely recommend them over the alternatives on the market like Glucerna, Boost, or Ensure. It is USDA organic, has 32% of the daily recommendation for protein and 21% of the daily recommendation of fiber as well as many other minerals/vitamins to support a healthy lifestyle. I gave it 4 stars because it does have a good bit of added sugar (18% or 9g) and the flavor is a little on the bland side and leaves a mild bitter after taste.

I was introduced to this drink while hospitalized. It was recommended by the nutritionist. It is quite pleasant to drink and appears to work well for me. I am a vegetarian and it supplies a good amount of protein.

Diabetics beware!! I bought this after it was recommended for diet regimen trying to keep glucose under control. I assumed since this was marketed as a glucose support specifically formulated for diabetics that it would be safe. Both times I tried drinking it (first time the full shake, second time half shake to see if it helped keep glucose under control), my glucose spiked into the 200s!!! I don't know how they've formulated this but it's definitely NOT diabetic friendly. I would have returned for a refund but apparently, these are not returnable. So I'm just out the money for something I cannot safely drink. Plus it was gross. I would've drunk them anyway, even with the nasty taste, but cannot because of how it spikes my glucose. Not happy!!!

These are pretty delicious, much better than Boost. Not as corn syrup-y in taste or texture. After being put on a weight gain diet but also being diabetic, my dietician recommended them. Well worth the extra cost. I didn’t dread drinking these! I wish they had chocolate for the glucose control version.
