How to make a delicious shake:

All shakes start with 23 grams of Formula 1 Shake Mix-as a general guide, using the large end of the Herbalife spoon load the spoon and drag across the rim of the can to level it off-you need 2 level spoons.

Formula 3 Personalised Protein Powder will also be added at this stage however the quantity will be different for each individual, depending on your weight management goals and dieting history. We will decide on this during your first consultation.

To blend your shake use 250ml of Soya milk or Skimmed Mik. The protein content of the F1 and the protein powder is mainly derived from Soya beans (a little is from whey) and it therefore mixes really well with Soya milk. Soya milk is very filling, easily digested, is less likely to cause any allergic reaction, and has a high protein content in it’s own right.
Full milk is not recommended.

Fruit juices and water can be used for a lighter and fresher taste but one point to remember when using fruit juices- you will be introducing additional carbohydrates to shakes in the form of natural fruit sugars and you will be missing out on the protein in the Soya milk-therefore if you choose to mix your shake with juice, you should compensate with 2-3 level spoons of  Formula 3 protein powder. To get the very best tasting shakes we recommend you use a blender (hand or full liquidiser style) They are always best made either the night before or at least 2 hours before you want to drink them, this way they become much thicker and less powdery.

When you reach your Target Weight you can then get creative with your shakes and replace one meal a day by using a selection of berry fruits to create a different taste and texture- natural yogurt also adds bulk and filling power. You can also sprinkle Formula 1 powder on cereals and fruit bowls. Formula 3 Personalised Protein powder can be added to soups and sauces.
