Meal Replacement Shakes/Smoothies

9.   Meal Replacement Shakes/Smoothies

A smoothie substituted for a junk food breakfast can aid in weight loss, but for long-term weight control, an exercise and eating approach is your best bet.

“There is no question that people can lose weight on such shakes/smoothies, but their efficacy for long-term weight control is debatable,”

“For permanent weight-loss success, an exercise and eating approach is your best bet. That’s because eating plans focuses on foods that are not only healthy but also provide the highest satiety for the fewest calories.”

High-satiety/low-calorie foods include whole vegetables, whole fruits, beans, potatoes, yams, and cooked whole grains such as whole-wheat pasta and brown rice, and moderate amounts of nonfat dairy and lean meat.
