You may have heard this before: "Why not just use real food instead of shakes and bars to lose weight? You have to learn to eat right sometime."
It's true that to manage your weight, you must learn to eat a nutritionally balanced, calorie-controlled diet. However, when most people start a weight loss program, they want to see results. They want to take some of the guesswork out of meal planning. That's why meal replacement products are helpful. They're easy to use, convenient, and provide a set number of calories — and a good balance of other nutrients as well — per serving. They provide structure and consistency — two ingredients that promote weight loss.
Glucerna products help fill the need for a meal or snack replacement that is easy and convenient, and provides a set number of calories. But Glucerna products also provide you with the good nutrition your body needs every day — something that's hard to get when you're limiting calorie intake — and slowly digested carbohydrates to help manage blood sugar levels. Be sure to talk with your health care professional about how you can make Glucerna products part of your meal plan.
