After several years of spending hundreds, as well as thousands, of dollars, after getting in poor health on them, and after seeing no type of results in the form of weight loss or fat burn from them, several have at long last realized that they're WORTHLESS.
Nevertheless, most are still confused if the supplements that are sold as "Meal Replacements", "weight loss supplements backed by science Gainers", "natural supplements", and "amino acids" have some great use in substituting for most entire foods that will help accelerate their goals to lose weight as well as burn up body fat.
Surely you see them in just about every other page in every-single bodybuilding / fitness magazine. Anyone at the gym employs them.
Go to any grocery store and they've them there too. Indeed, even you have probably used them & / or are making use of them right now.........
Shakes and supplements.
A variety of "meal replacement" powders and shakes, also referred to as RTD's, are sold as being a substitute for a genuine, whole food meal.
The makers claim that they are "just as great, if not more effective, than eating a genuine meal", supposedly, which will, speed up the fat reduction process.
They say they have increased quantities of protein, lower quantities of sugar / carbohydrates, and include ingredients like BCAA's, Glutamine, Creatine, HMB, CLA, so on so forth.
