New to Herbalife

When it comes to dieting most people start controlling portions and counting calories. But very often, the desired results are not achieved. Factors as skipping meals, not eating the correct foods, lack of regular exercise and getting the correct vitamins & minerals all contribute to the scale refusing to budge.

Herbalife takes care of this all for you and gives you the products and tools you need to help you lose weight responsibly, feel great and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

The Formula 1 shake is Herbalife's flagship product. Replace 1 or 2 meals per day for a Herbalife Formula 1 shake.

One of the biggest attractions for me when I looked at the Herbalife Diet was that I could still eat my favourite foods everyday and all that I needed to do was cut back on the amount that I was eating. I found that the shakes gave me a real feeling of fullness and I just wasn’t as hungry as I thought I might be. Being able to still eat the food that I loved, just in smaller amounts made it really easy to fit Herbalife into my lifestyle.

One health resource suggests aiming for a 500-calorie deficit per day for weight loss over time. This will help you lose about 0.45 kg of body weight per week. That is almost 2kgs a month and 12kgs over six months.

  • For an average woman, some guides suggest that number is around 2,000kcal (8,400kJ) a day.
  • An average man needs around 2,500kcal (10,500kJ) a day to maintain a healthy body weight.

Slow, steady weight loss using a consistent plan is generally regarded as a smart option for long-term weight loss. Rapid weight loss has been viewed as a potentially dangerous to your health. Furthermore, dieting can be harmful because the body responds to these periods of semi-starvation by lowering its metabolic rate.
