Meal Replacement Shakes

Meal replacement shakes are designed to provide vitamins and minerals to the body using a calorie-controlled medium (pre-packaged, prepared shakes or powders) as a replacement to a traditional meal.  Most replacement powders or shakes are used as part of a weight loss or muscle building regimen.  As a general rule, these shakes provide 200-350 calories per serving, usually including a balance of protein, carbohydrates and fats. 

People choosing to use this method as part of their weight loss plan should use shakes and powders responsibly.  No matter how good the quality of a product, they will never be a substitute for a balanced diet of nutrient rich foods.  Always follow product guidelines, and do not completely stop eating solid foods without supervision of your doctor.  That being said, there are some benefits associated with meal replacement shakes that can help dieters as they lose weight.  These benefits include:

  • Convenience:  Some products are already packaged in individual, ready-to-use cans.  Even packaged powders mix up into a drink in just minutes with little clean up involved later.  In addition, both the prepackaged and powder options can go with the user most anywhere.
  • Inexpensive:  Overall, shakes and powders are an inexpensive method of weight loss.  Costing around $2.00 per serving, shakes help you lose weight without breaking the bank to do it.
  • Supress Hunger:  They provide vitamins and nutrients to your body while satiating the body–helping you to avoid hunger that triggers your emotional need to snack.
