As medical communities and public health officials continue to highlight the importance of healthy eating and regular exercise, millions of Americans are trying different approaches to lose weight, gain weight, or overall stay healthy. But with so many unsustainable fad diets and overly demanding fitness programs available, too many of us aren't seeing results, reverting to old eating habits, and feeling alone when we don't reach our goals. As a result, communities are still grappling with conflicting diet and lifestyle recommendations, unsure which way to turn for the best.

Lack of understanding around the fact that every person is different and therefore needs personalized nutrition advice is at the root of this problem. There is an urgent need to provide people with knowledge that is specific to them so that they can make healthy choices. It's for this reason that Herbalife Nutrition is committed to helping customers to overcome nutritional challenges through personalized wellness plans, one-to-one relationships with dedicated independent distributors, community-inspired nutrition clubs, and the highest-quality wellness products.

As a global leader in meal replacements and nutritional supplements, Herbalife Nutrition strives to consistently craft the highest-quality products. Four-million Herbalife Nutrition shakes are consumed every day by customers around the world, each of whom is working through a Herbalife Nutrition program that is tailored to fulfill their specific wellness needs.

So, how, exactly, do Herbalife Nutrition independent distributors help customers to achieve the nutritional success that they've always wanted?

Here are all the details you need about how customers achieve their wellness goals with Herbalife Nutrition.

How to Get Started with Herbalife Nutrition

Customers can get started with Herbalife Nutrition quickly and easily by connecting with an independent distributor, who acts as their wellness coach. A distributor may be someone that the customer already knows, or the customer might be invited to a nutrition club to try out the Herbalife Nutrition products. There are approximately 90,000 nutrition clubs in over 90 countries around the world-more than triple the number of Starbucks franchises-including 6,000 in the U.S. alone.

Each nutrition club or fit club welcomes new members to a supportive community of like-minded people who motivate each other and share guidance from Herbalife Nutrition's experts in nutrition and fitness.

Many nutrition clubs offer these three popular products:

1)    Aloe, which supports healthy digestion, nutrient absorption, and intestine health.

2)    Flavored tea, which supports hydration, kickstarts metabolism and promotes alertness.

3)    Meal replacement protein shakes, which are fortified with vitamins and minerals and help curb hunger.

Working with a Herbalife Nutrition Distributor

Working towards fitness goals requires long-term commitment, but most diets are unsustainable and only lead to disappointment. This is where Herbalife Nutrition steps in. Once a customer starts their Herbalife Nutrition journey, they pair up with a distributor who coaches and supports them as they progress towards their goals. Distributors use a wealth of training materials from Herbalife Nutrition's health experts to coach their customers.

Herbalife Nutrition recognizes that every person has different nutritional requirements, wellness goals, and support needs-and that these needs evolve. This is why Herbalife Nutrition's distributors continually analyze each customer's progress and adapt their personalized plans to help them achieve the best outcomes.

As a customer's coach, a distributor empowers their customer to overcome nutrition or fitness obstacles to help them reach their wellness goals. Lack of confidence is often a barrier to change, so Herbalife Nutrition's distributors motivate their customers, building self-efficacy by celebrating small wins and milestones. They also work with customers to uncover cues that trigger their unhealthy behaviors and explore how to replace these old habits with sustainable alternatives. This coaching role is core to helping customers achieve behavior change and healthy habits.

The Power of a Personalized Wellness Evaluation

First-time customers benefit from a one-to-one coaching session with a distributor, either in person or online. During the session, the distributor carries out a personalized wellness evaluation to help the customer identify their nutritional goals. The distributor reviews the customer's nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle to map routes to these goals. They then create a customer profile, which the customer can refer to as they track their progress.

During the one-to-one session, the distributor may ask questions such as:

●      What are your health or fitness goals?

●      How much water do you drink in a day?

●      How much sleep do typically get?

●      What are some habits you would like to develop in the next few months?

●      What have you done in the past to lose weight?

●      When have you tried to lose weight before, and what has worked for you?

●      What hasn't worked for you?

●      Why do you think it has been difficult for you to achieve your goals?

●      How ready are you to make changes in your diet and lifestyle?

The Science Behind Meal Replacements

Herbalife Nutrition focuses on knowledge and understanding, empowering customers to reach their goals by learning about the nutrients that they consume. All distributors are trained to guide customers through the science behind their meal replacements as they progress through their personalized plans.

Many people lose motivation when they have tried countless diets that just don't work. However, Herbalife reviews show that meal replacements offer an effective solution for weight management; the science behind meal replacements tends to make them more effective than diets because of their glycemic index and nutrient density.

The glycemic index (GI) is a measure of how quickly your blood sugar spikes when you consume a type of food. Consuming high-GI foods causes blood sugar to rise quickly and then drop, leaving you lethargic and hungry. Meanwhile, your body digests and absorbs low-GI foods slowly, curbing appetite and promoting satiety despite the lower calorie intake. For example, orange juice has a moderate to high GI, while Herbalife's Nutrition Formula 1 replacement shake has a low GI. However, a lower GI doesn't automatically mean that a food is high in nutritional value. Nutritional value is measured in terms of nutrient density-the ratio of nutrient composition to a person's nutritional requirements.

Herbalife Nutrition meal-replacement shakes and supplements promote a high-quality diet by being both low-GI and nutrient-dense. The combination of protein, carbohydrates, and fiber helps to prevent hunger. Plus, when combined with resistance exercise, meal-replacement shakes promote lean body mass, which helps to support fat loss.

Here's a breakdown of the nutritional value of a Herbalife Nutrition Formula 1 meal-replacement shake (combined with 8 oz. non-fat milk or two scoops of Protein Drink Mix):

●      170 good-quality calories.

●      17-24 grams of protein.

●      9 grams heart-healthy soy protein (consuming 25 grams a day as part of a diet that is low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease).

●      Antioxidants, including vitamins A (as Beta Carotene), C, and E.

●      3 grams of fiber.

●      Up to 21 vitamins and minerals.

In comparison, a croissant provides little nutritional value: 200-300 empty calories from saturated fat and sugar.

Flagship Meal Replacement Shakes

Herbalife Nutrition's best-known product is the Formula 1 Healthy Meal Nutritional Shake Mix: a delicious meal in a glass that combines all the key nutrients a fulfilling meal should include. The flagship meal replacement shake has retained its popularity over four decades as Herbalife Nutrition has consistently developed the quality of ingredients. Now available in 28 flavors-including region-customized variations-customers can stick to their plans without getting bored of the same tastes.

As a global company, Herbalife Nutrition has developed a range of meal replacement shakes to meet different consumer needs around the world. Some of the regional products include:

●      Warm shakes for cold evenings, specially designed for Russia's winter temperatures that drop as low as -80 °F (-62 °C).

●      Powdered milk alternatives for countries such as Brazil, where people don't own refrigerators and therefore can't keep milk in their homes.

●      Plant-based protein shakes, which don't contain soy, dairy, or gluten. These shakes are also vegetarian and Kosher certified.

●      Herbalife Nutrition's first vegan protein shake, which they launched in 2019, available in select markets.

Why Meal Replacements Are Suited to Behavioral Change

Aside from nutritional benefits, meal replacements can help to reform unhealthy eating habits. Controlling behavioral patterns is an important part of improving a diet. The Medicine Department of the University of Ulm (Germany) concluded that there are six main reasons why meal-replacement diets are easy to switch to when reforming habits to achieve health goals.

1)    Convenience: many people don't have time to cook nutritional meals and therefore resort to unhealthy alternatives. Meal replacements overcome time-related challenges without sacrificing nutritional value.

2)    Compliance: rather than sticking to complex diet plans, meal replacement plans are easy to comply with.

3)    Regular eating: routine is a key part of weight management, and regular consumption helps to build energy and stop you from feeling hungry.

4)    Easy calorie estimation: tracking calories from dozens of individual food components can be demotivating and difficult, but it's comparatively easy to track meal replacement calories.

5)    Food quality: most people aren't sure of the exact nutritional quality of their meals and sometimes buy food without realizing its lack of nutritional value, but meal replacements are packed with vitamins, minerals, proteins, and fiber.

6)    Easy self-monitoring: it's helpful to record dietary intake, but this can be time-consuming. However, tracking meal replacements is simple and allows you to monitor your behaviors and outcomes easily.

Evidence for Behavioral Interventions

Several third-party studies and independent Herbalife reviews conclude that social support is an important part of weight management. It's for this reason that each Herbalife Nutrition customer is invited to a nutrition club where they can learn from knowledgeable distributors and discuss progress with a supportive community. Herbalife's nutrition clubs set them apart from other meal replacement suppliers: it's the personal experience and customized nutrition plans that enable Herbalife Nutrition customers to achieve their health goals.

Amongst the studies, Tufts University ran a pilot investigation in 2017 to examine the impact of nutrition clubs on participant success. The trial used subjective and objective health measures to compare the success of club members against community-matched controls. Club members reported improved perceived health, better sleep patterns, and less tendency to resort to stress eating. The trial's objective clinical data reinforced these findings, concluding that nutrition club members had better overall cardiometabolic health. A larger longitudinal study is currently in the preparation process to develop the investigation into the connection between nutrition club membership and cardiometabolic health.

Also, in 2018, the University of Oxford (England) investigated weight-loss interventions and concluded that meal replacements are more effective than traditional diets involving calorie restrictions. The study also found that adherence is the biggest challenge in weight-loss journeys and that those receiving social support from nutrition clubs and one-to-one guidance tend to achieve better results.

Overall, the studies show that when it comes to improving health, purchasing meal replacements as standalone products is not as effective as partaking in behavioral programs in which you have access to one-to-one support and a supportive community.

Herbalife Reviews and Testimonials

Thousands of customers are delighted with the results that they have achieved through Herbalife Nutrition's market-leading meal-replacement system. Here are four Herbalife reviews from members who are sharing their success stories to inspire others.

●      Bryan Yang: "The first time I was invited to an independent distributor's Fit Club, I immediately felt the positive energy and sense of community. Everyone was really sincere and genuine-they welcomed me with open arms, and I knew at that moment that I wanted to be a part of this community."

●      Robin Walters: "I'm in better shape now than I was at 40, and I owe it to my Herbalife Nutrition coaches, who took a real interest in my wellness journey. I am successful this time and coaches Dave and Rochelle made all the difference."

●      Connie Chan: "Once I started the nutrition and fitness program, I committed 110%. I did three weight loss challenges back-to-back and was so motivated by my own success that I was committed to achieve more! I got into yoga and HIIT exercises at fit camps. Thanks to regular physical activity combined with my personalized nutrition program, I hit my goal."

●      Tara Tashjian: "Ever since high school, I have dealt with being overweight. Time and again, my New Year's resolution was to lose weight and get in shape. But every January, I found myself right back to where I started. My original goal was to lose 30 pounds, but I wasn't sure I could do it. I just didn't have faith in myself, but [my distributor] Connie did. She encouraged me and, once I committed and buckled down, I was able to do it."
