Are you trying to lose weight but find it difficult to control your daily calorie intake?

Or you are someone who is always on the go, regularly skipped meals, and find it really difficult to find healthy, well-balanced meals because of your extremely busy and demanding life? 

Meal replacement shakes could be the answer that you are looking for.

What Is Meal Replacement Shakes?

Generally, meal replacement shakes have a calorie count of around 200–400 calories and a decent amount of protein, fiber, and essential vitamins and minerals.

It is essentially meal-on-the-go. 

Meal Replacement Shakes vs Protein Shakes. Are They The Same?

They are not the same and are designed for different goals.

Meal replacement shakes is designed to replace your meal so it must contain the essential nutrients (carbs, protein, fat, fibre, vitamin and minerals)

A protein shake is just intended to deliver protein with the purpose to add protein to the diet, not to replace a meal.

Meal Replacement Shakes For Weight Loss

The idea is to replace your regular meals with low-calorie powdered shakes to reduce your daily energy intake (creating a calorie deficit) to subsequently help you lose weight.
  • Low calorie 
  • Fortified with essential vitamins and minerals
  • Easy to prepare, just shake and go. 
  • Convenient way to supply your body with the essentials and nutrition as of a full meal, minus the high calorie
  • Helps to manage cravings and urges to binge into unhealthy processed foods that can sabotage your weight loss efforts.
