Review: Do not buy if you have high blood sugar - I am Diabetic. I saw this was lower in sugar and only 11 Carbs so I thought I would try it. It tastes great. Delivered as promised. If you do not have blood sugar issues I highly recommend this product. One little packet raised my sugar 100 points, so I just wanted to share this information in case it helps someone else.
