Why a full formula diet vs. a low calorie food diet?
Full formula diets like Optifast provide many advantages over a food plan. • Optifast is portion and calorie controlled (no weighing or measuring of food) • Nutritionally balanced with all required vitamins/minerals included. • Decreased time and effort to plan and prepare meal (more time can be spent increasing physical activity) • Many individuals welcome the formula milkshakes rather than agonizing over multiple food choices. • It is not possible to achieve a nutritionally balanced 800 calorie food diet that would compare to Optifast formula.
