ideas on shakes that won't cause a flare?

The slimfast shakes have too much fiber for me. I tried glucerna shakes (since I have prediabetes) but they send me *running* to the bathroom.

Has anyone had any success with boost or ensure? or any others?

I am trying to find some way to keep my tummy quiet yet not eat...I guess a more liquid diet. I am going to maybe pick up some chicken broth today (like the powered stuff, not too fatty) and I have been doing jello (and even SF pudding) with success. But still looking for the right supplement shake.

Thanks!

I've never done shakes...
Some of the artificial sugars are known to cause diarrhea, so... I stay away from those.

Is what you mean, by shakes "causing a flare," is that they send you running to the bathroom? If I understand that to be what you mean, it's just that the activity of the high end of your GI tract (mouth, swallowing) starts activity which continues through your whole GI tract (run to bathroom) - and in a flare I find that aggravated by any drink that's icy cold or very hot - like tea. Broth, eaten slowly with a spoon, doesn't quite do the same thing to me.
Did.... I guess right at your meaning; could you say more? Thanks!

I make my own smoothies using yogurt, banana and sometimes a raw egg (you can get pasteurized eggs to avoid salmonella). You can add as much sugar as you need to sweeten this to your taste. Other fruits (frozen berries) also do ok for me, but your reactions may vary.

Zen - Thanks for clarifying! There's so much to figure out - I was just trying to get to the intent of your question. Thanks!

So.... my advice is to watch the extreme hots and colds, sip slowly rather than drink and run (as the commercials for various shakes would show)..... When flaring, basically anything I put in my mouth triggers a reaction at the other end, so to be as gentle as possible putting something in might help? -
I remember reading, when first diagnosed, also to stay sitting for 10-15 minutes after a meal rather than jumping up from the table....

I like to make smoothies, too, similar to cupcake's. I use a little honey for sweetener.

What meds are you on....?
