What are some healthy shakes for diabetics?

Some healthy shakes for diabetics include Glucerna SR, Boost Glucose Control and Almased, notes Everyday Health. Some other good shakes include EAS AdvantEDGE Carb Control and Atkins Advantage.

Meal replacement shakes are a good choice for diabetics on the go, but they do not replace actual food, states Everyday Health. Diabetics still need to consume a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, lean protein and whole grains.

When choosing shakes, diabetics should avoid ones that have sugar as one of the first three ingredients, reports Everyday Health. Also, shakes with too much protein in them can cause damage to people who have kidney problems.
