Many studies have been conducted on the benefits of staying healthy and maintaining an ideal weight. Following a diet to lose excess weight is the latest mantra of today. However, most often, diets do not supply the body with the nutrients it requires to function. Secondly, a diet that suits one person may not necessarily suit another. Playing with the body’s metabolism, can take a serious toll on stamina and immunity, leading to serious health issues. In keeping with its focus on good health, Herbalife has developed nutritional shakes, to help dieters lose weight effectively while ensuring that the body gets its needed nourishment.

Studies conducted on protein reveal that it is a very important nutrient as it not only builds and maintains muscle, but also helps in controlling hunger. It is believed that protein triggers a natural weight loss hormone in the body. Soy protein, in particular has been found to have extra benefits when taken with a low calorie diet such as lowering cholesterol, reducing the risk of heart disease, lowering symptoms of menopause, and promoting general health. The Formula 1 nutritional shakes in seven flavours, contain this ‘complete protein’ besides carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other nutrients. The shake can taken with either dairy or soy milks. Since they are chock full of needed nutrients, these shakes can even be used to replace a meal, without any side effects. In fact, research has shown that drinking two such shakes daily, and having one healthy meal helped in reducing weight. Drinking Formula 1 even after achieving the ideal weight is beneficial in maintaining overall health.

Besides Formula 1, Herbalife also has other protein snacks such as protein bars and soy nuts , which satisfy, hunger pangs, without adding to one’s weight. All the healthy treats are low on calories and high on nutrients, with the added promise of good health.
