Why am I told to drink my meal replacement formula on an empty stomach and wait 30 minutes A:before eating a meal?
You should always drink your formula on an empty stomach (no food for at least 2 hours) in order to maximize your absorption of nutrients. You wait the 30 minute period to allow your stomach to signal your brain that you have eaten and are not as hungry anymore. This little step will allow you to comfortably eat about 1/3 of your normal meal and could easily save you 500 – 1,000 calories per meal. Eliminating 3,500 calories is the equivalent to losing 1lb. so pay attention to your body and eat when you are hungry, not simply out of boredom…it is much easier than working out in the gym!
