Keep glucose level in check
KEEPING blood sugar on track can seem like a marathon. It is the result of the many choices you make, meal by meal, day by day.
It is about navigating temptations with confidence so that you can reap the rewards later. This is where great-tasting Glucerna comes into play.
Offering complete nutrition, Glucerna is formulated with a low glycaemic index (GI) as well as high fibre and monounsaturated fats (MUFA) content to assist with blood sugar control.
Food with low GI is known to help keep blood sugar levels under better control.
According to a study published in the Nutrition & Metabolism journal in 2005, carbohydrates that are digested slowly (such as Fibersol and sucromalt) result in slow release of blood glucose, providing better glycaemic response.
In another study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition in 1997, a diet high in MUFA, omega-6 and omega-3, and low in saturated fatty acids is associated with lower cholesterol levels and reduced risk of cardiovascular disease.
Glucerna’s high fibre content helps increase satiety.
Consider Glucerna as a structured calorie-controlled meal plan and do away with calorie counting when deciding what to eat for one or two meals and/or two snacks a day.
It is recommended to take five scoops of Glucerna with 200ml of cold or warm water daily for breakfast as part of a nutritional management plan.
