Splenda® Brand, sent me samples of their new Splenda Diabetes Care Shakes, the first and only no added sugar shakes specifically designed to help manage blood sugar and support the needs of people managing diabetes and prediabetes.
Each 8oz serving provides ZERO sugar, 16g of high quality protein, 15g slow digesting carbohydrates carb, 9g good-for-you fats and 6g fiber, all for just 170 calories, making them a great snack or meal replacement. Splenda Diabetes Care Shakes are soy free, gluten free and suitable for lactose intolerance.
Splenda Diabetes Care Shakes are available in three flavors—French vanilla, milk chocolate and strawberry banana. Of course I tested each one for deliciousness. Without a doubt I can honestly say these are the best shakes for people with diabetes or prediabetes that I’ve ever tasted—and I’ve tried them all.
