Losing weight has always been a lifelong goal in people's minds. Perfect posture can not only bring confidence, but also reduce the probability of many chronic diseases. In order to meet the market demand, many food manufacturers have introduced so-called "meal replacement" foods, such as high-protein milkshakes, nutrition bars, energy juices, fiber frozen drinks and other products.

But you know what? The food hygiene management law of Taiwan Province Province has a strict definition of the so-called "meal replacement", which can only be called "food" if it is qualified by applying to the Department of Health.

The so-called meal replacement refers to a low-calorie food that contains three nutrients (protein, carbohydrate and fat), vitamins and minerals and can replace a meal. The purpose is to replace it with 1-2 meal with lower calories on the premise of balanced nutrition, so as to facilitate the implementation of weight loss.

At present, there are only 19 kinds of qualified meal replacement products on the market, which means that most of the products claiming meal replacement have hardly passed the examination of the Department of Health. Some of these products have too high protein, some have little calories and nutrition, some have high carbohydrate content, and some have too high fat content, so they are not qualified nutritionally at all. There will be many problems in replacing dinner for a long time.

A qualified meal replacement bag is about 280-300 calories, which contains three balanced nutrients, vitamins and minerals. It is recommended to change one meal during weight loss, and the other two meals should be normal but healthy, so as to achieve the purpose of weight loss.

During weight loss, the calorie intake should not be less than 800 calories/day. The best suggestion is that girls should not be less than 1, 200 calories per day, and boys should not be less than 1, 500 calories per day. If the intake of calories and nutrients is insufficient for a long time, it is easy to have problems such as lack of essential fatty acids, essential amino acids and vitamin B groups, and in severe cases, many physical conditions will occur.

Possible situations include: low immunity, easy to get sick, dry and rough skin, yellow hair, nervous system disorder, muscle loss, and severe ketoacidosis.

As the old saying goes, there is no shortcut to lose weight, so don't be eager for quick success. Losing weight, like anything else, requires a lot of effort to stick to it. Don't hurt your wallet and body for quick results. Eating the right food and continuous exercise can be effective and it is not easy to gain weight again. Remind everyone to remind themselves, okay?
