A well designed fat blend
It's important to watch your fat intake, paticularly if you are living with diabetes. High levels of saturated fats – found in meat, high fat dairy products, and also in oils like coconut and
palm – may raise your bad cholesterol levels – the cholesterol we refer to as LDL-C. Likewise, trans
fats, found in some products like crackers and cookies, may raise your bad cholesterol.
Glucerna Nutritional Drink is made with adequate fat blend.
