Meal replacement shakes aim to provide a balance of macronutrients, vitamins and minerals that are similar to a balanced meal of whole foods. This can make them helpful for replacing a meal, especially when it may not be possible or convenient to consume whole foods. The amount of protein required per day varies per person. Athletes and bodybuilders will require more protein to support lean muscle mass as compared to sedentary individuals. Highly active individuals should consume about 2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, which translates to approximately one gram of high-quality protein per pound of body weight per day. Overweight individuals should consume less total protein and should consult their doctor.

Without question. Even people who are routinely sedentary can benefit from using MET-Rx ® nutrition products along with a healthy diet plan. The optimal nutrient composition of MET-Rx® products, the meal patterns suggested in the guide, and the whole foods prescribed all contribute to improved metabolic function and enhanced overall health.* For optimal health and body composition, we recommend that everyone engage in some form of daily activity. Preparing a healthy breakfast, lunch and dinner for yourself or your entire family may not always be possible. You might wake up a little later than expected with no time to cook bacon and eggs, or you might need to run your 10-year-old from band practice to soccer camp without any time to stop for dinner. When life gets busy and you can’t cook, there’s always the option of utilizing a meal replacements bar instead.

DirectionsHealth Goal – If you’re trying to lose weight, look for a meal replacement that’s provides around 200 calories or less. If you’re following a resistance training program and trying to gain muscle mass, you’ll want to look for a product higher in calories and protein. Are you a vegan? Following a keto diet? There are also meal replacements to meet your lifestyle! MET-Rx ® Original Meal Replacement Powder is more than 50% protein, with 37-38 grams of protein per serving. Is it possible to consume too much protein in one meal?

What type of protein is the most valuable to the human body and what makes MET-Rx ® METAMYOSYN ® Protein so special? MET-Rx ® products are more than just a random load of dietary calories; they are precise nutritional formulations designed to deliver positive nutrients necessary for optimal function.* Several MET-Rx ® products may be used either as a meal or in addition to regular meals. They provide a balanced nutrient base and can be used to help satisfy most of the body’s nutritional requirements when incorporated as part of a balanced, whole-foods diet. Perform a taste test. There are so many different meal replacement bars on the market and each company offers a selection of flavors. You may come across such flavors as chocolate pretzel, caramel cluster, peanut butter cup, banana nut bread, almond crunch and blueberry cobbler. Try purchasing a few different bars to discover your likes and dislikes before you decide on your go-to bar. Additionally, “meal replacement shakes are often high in protein, to help you feel full,” says Margulies. The calorie-controlled portion may help with weight loss while the extra protein helps to preserve your muscle mass, she explains.
