What are the Meal Replacement Shakes?

Meal replacement shakes are generally used by those who want to lose weight. So can any shake be a meal replacement?

Unfortunately no. Especially for those who want to lose weight, for a shake to replace a meal, the calorie, fat, and sugar ratios must be low and the protein ratios must be high. That’s why they have some variables.

We have prepared a nutritional fact for you, which you can find below. These values are the values of the chocolate shake we have prepared for you. You can try different shakes prepared with different ingredients that meet these ratios more or less. 

Make sure it’s not too low in protein and not too low or too high in calories.

Does Meal Replacement Shake Really Help With Weight Loss?

Yes, it really works! In a study(1), some people trying to lose weight were divided into 2 groups. One group followed a standard diet, while another group sometimes used meal replacement shakes to replace their meals.

By the end of the study, the meal replacement group lost 6.3% more weight than the other.

So what this means is that replacing some of your meals with shakes while following a diet can scientifically help you lose weight and speed up your process.

But as we mentioned above, you should not spend all your meals this way. If you are going to replace one meal with a shake, be sure to choose nutrient-dense foods in your other meal/s.

Is It Good to Use Shakes Instead of Meals?

If you do not follow a special diet for your health, we cannot say that meal replacement shakes are unsafe to drink occasionally. But there is something you must not forget.

Do not take these for every meal. Whatever diet you follow, remember that you need to eat. The human body needs a balanced diet. In other words, being deprived of nutrients can cause you to be deprived of vitamins in the long run.

For this reason, you can safely consume protein shakes, but you should not replace your daily eating habits. You especially need chewing for your metabolism.
