Breakfast and lunch can be handy choices, but you can choose any two main meals that fit your day. Prepare each shake as directed and enjoy one balanced meal, as part of a diet with fewer calories.*
Yes. Choose a snack when you need one and keep the portion within your daily calorie plan. Our quick snack ideas above give you some simple options.
A shaker is enough for your basic Formula 1 shake. Use a blender when you add fruit or want a smoother texture with ice.
Check your chosen tub for the options that apply. Oat and almond drinks change the nutrition, so use a label-supported preparation when replacing a meal.
Start with Formula 1. The other products are extras you can choose for your day. You can buy the shake on its own or pick a pack.
Yes, with a suitable Formula 1 and Protein Drink Mix combination. Follow the preparation on both labels. Protein Drink Mix on its own is a protein drink, not a meal replacement.
Yes. Use the labelled base for your meal-replacement shake, then add your extras. Include them in your daily calorie plan.
To help maintain your weight after weight loss, replace one main meal a day with a Formula 1 shake and enjoy two balanced meals, within a diet with fewer calories.*
Your shakes work as part of a diet with fewer calories, so moving is not required for them to do their job. Being active does help you feel good, look after your body and keep your weight steady over time. Start with something you enjoy and build up gradually.
*As part of a calorie-controlled diet. Prepare as directed.
*Replacing two main daily meals with meal replacements in an energy-restricted diet contributes to weight loss. Replacing one contributes to maintaining weight after weight loss. Prepare as directed, include balanced food, stay active and drink enough water.
Product preparation and serving guidance is based on current Herbalife UK labels, with general healthy-eating and weight-management guidance from recognised UK sources.
