Features
- GLUCERNA 1.2 CAL has been clinically shown to significantly reduce peak postprandial blood glucose response by 49 mg/dL (69%) and reduce glycemic variability versus a standard 1.2-Cal formulation in people with diabetes1,2,3
- At 1.2 Cal/mL, patient needs can be met with less volume
- 20% of calories from protein to promote anabolism and support wound healing
- Macronutrient distribution: 45% fat, 20% protein, and 35% carbohydrate
- Includes 10 g/L of NutraFlora® scFOS® (2.4 g/8 fl.oz. and 15 g/ 1.5 L)
- 4% of total calories from saturated fatty acids and rich in monounsaturated fatty acids (28% of total calories), meeting American Heart Association and American Diabetes Association guidelines4
- Provides plant-based omega-3 fatty acids from canola oil (3 g of ALA per 1500 Cal) and the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA (1 g per 1500 Cal) from fish oil, which meets American Heart Association recommendations to support circulatory and heart health5,6
- Chromium, from chromium picolinate, the most bioavailable form of chromium, which has been shown to lower fasting and postprandial glucose levels and A1C in people with diabetes.7 Chromium picolinate supports glucose tolerance by helping the body's own insulin work better
- 1500 Cal provide at least 100% of the RDIs for 24 key vitamins and minerals
Precautions
- Not for parenteral use
- Use under medical supervision
