Glucerna SR: Diabetes Diet Information

Dr. Leila Panaligan - "...part of her carefully paced daily routine"

Glucerna SR and Glycemic Response


Age: Elderly
Occupation: Retired dentist
Diabetes: Type II (6 years)

Leila's verbal and motor skills were compromised after a surgery, and she spends most of her time in a bright corner room of a local hospital. A skilled and devoted care giver helps keep her glucose levels under control. Hector, whose own mother had diabetes, is well aware of the value of good nutrition in maintaining Leila's health. So he has made sure that Glucerna SR™ is part of her carefully paced daily routine. The unique carbohydrate system helps optimize glycemic response. The complete and balanced nutrition helps maintain her good health, and soluble fibers including FOS (fructooligosaccharides) help keep her digestive system functioning well. "I have mixed my own concoction for her," says Hector. "I add Glucerna SR™ to gelatin and other foods. It's an easy way to add excellent nutrition to her diet."
