What are Meal Replacements?
Our meal replacement blends are supplements that can be used alongside a balanced diet. They usually feature essential macronutrients, like carbohydrates, protein, and micronutrients, like vitamins and minerals. This ensures your intake of nutrients your body needs to maintain a healthy weight is not impacted, even if you’re trying to lower your calorie intake. Therefore, meal replacements can be a valuable support to your weight-loss goals.
What are the Benefits of Meal Replacements?
As meal replacements often feature essential macronutrients and vitamins, they are a great way to hit your daily recommended allowance, with a normal healthy diet. Meal replacements that contain protein can also contribute to the maintenance and growth of muscle, which helps to support your progress after an intense workout — crucial for everyone regardless of your fitness goal. They can also be a great way to improve feelings of satiety, which can in turn help with your weight loss goal, as if you feel full for longer after a meal, the desire to eat sugary, unhealthy snacks decreases.

FAQs
Are meal replacements healthy?
They can be a convenient and easy way to get the nutrients your body needs, but they are not a substitute for whole foods and therefore shouldn't be used as a "crutch" in place of nutritionally dense foods, but can be useful for those on the go or who struggle to find time for meals.
Are meal replacements bad for you?
No, not inherently, it depends on the use of them in your diet. They can help you get a nutritionally dense meal on the go if you are struggling to find the time.
Are meal replacement shakes good for weight loss?
Meal replacement shakes can be a good way to lose weight, but they are not a magic bullet. They can help you reduce your calorie intake and promote weight loss, but they are not a substitute for a healthy diet and regular exercise. They are typically high in protein and fiber, which can help you feel full and satisfied. They are also low in calories, which can help you create a calorie deficit. This means that you are burning more calories than you are consuming, which is essential for weight loss.
