Using Meal Replacement Shakes To Lose Weight

Using Meal Replacement Shakes To Lose Weight

Meal replacement shakes are a great supplement to use for weight loss. They typically contain enough essential nutrients needed to replace any meal and keep you feeling full for at least 3 hours. Nevertheless, before you start using meal replacement shakes as a weight loss strategy, find out some useful tips which can help you choose and use them in a proper way.

Check Out The Reviews

When it comes to choosing a healthy replacement meal shake, you need to make sure that you get the most effective one. Go online and search for customer unbiased reviews and top MRS ratings. Only pay attention to products with the highest ratings. Reduce your list to about five of the best protein shakes and then choose one which meets your dietary requirements.

Know Your Needs

A good meal replacement shake should contain a sufficient amount of nutrients to completely cover the calorie costs of an entire meal. Opt for shakes which offer a balanced ratio of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Equally important is vitamin, mineral and fiber content – pay close attention to these counts as well.

Use Them Properly

Meal replacement shakes are produced to substitute up to two of your daily meals. Don't try to use them more than recommended. 

Drink your shake in the morning if you do not have enough time for full breakfast. It will not only reduce your appetite but also prevent you from unhealthy snaсking later on in the day. Have it for your lunch if junk food is your typical go-to meal. Or use your protein shake in the evening if you can’t fight your after-meal cravings or late night sweet treats.

Make sure to add some low-calorie cost but filling vegetables and fruits to your meal routine as well.

Stay Alert

Be very careful when choosing a meal replacement shake especially if you have allergies. Some may contain allergens like milk or gluten. Always check the nutrition label to find out whether you can safely consume it or not. If you have allergies this is probably a no-brainer for you.

Also, pay close attention to any side effects. If it turns out that protein shakes make you feel sick and dizzy, you should consider replacing it with another one, or completely switch weight loss methods.

Before trying a new food supplement like meal replacement shakes, consult your doctor and get personalized health advice for the best results.

Steer Clear Of Meal Replacement Shakes That Contain These

Sweeteners including high fructose corn syrup (low amounts of regular, low glycemic fructose is acceptable), dextrose, glucose, cane sugar, refined sugars, brown sugar, molasses, evaporated cane juice, processed honey, as they contribute to addiction and dangerous side effects.

Artificial sweeteners which contain sucralose (Splenda), acesulfame-k, and aspartame, in particular.

Soy protein which is known not only for its destructive influence on the immune system but also for causing severe diseases such as kidney stones, thyroid disorders, and breast cancer. In addition, it can be harmful to pregnant and nursing women.
