So, How does the Medifast Weight Loss Shake Compare to The Body By Vi Shakes?

Body By Vi Shakes - Visalus Shakes

Medifast Weight Loss Shakes: Doing a comparison to the Body By Vi Shake, or "Vi Shape" shake, I will compare to the Medifast French Vanilla Ready To Drink Shake.

The Medifast Weight Loss shake also has 90 calories, with 1 gram of fat, 13 grams of carbohydrates, 6 grams of sugar, and 11 grams of protein. One thing that I wasn't thrilled about is that there are is 200 mg of sodium, per can.

I also found the Medifast weight loss shake to be a little too sweet, and very thick - but it tasted the best out of the competitors, although it didn't come close to the awesome tasting "shake mix that tastes like a cake mix", the Body By Vi Shake.

While there is fiber, roughly 3 grams per can, I found that there is no data to confirm whether there are pre-biotics or probiotics in each shake, and the cost per serving for the ready made shake to be high. A box of Medifast shakes contains seven servings, and costs $15.50, or $2.21 per serving.

Vi-Shape Shake FAQ
1. What is unique about the Vi-Shape® Nutritional Shake mix?

There are so many unique benefits, and ingredients, so here are a few:
It tastes amazing. We call it the a. "Shake mix that tastes like a cake mix". If you do a blind taste test vs. other shakes, you'll see that many have either a gritty texture, can have a bitter or metallic after taste that lingers. Other shakes can smell bitter, or like chemicals. Ours is different because of the unique, high quality
ingredients that we use.

b. Our shake is lower in sodium, fat, and carbohydrates than other shakes. Many companies will use sodium to make the bland ingredients taste better, fat to make flavor carry, or add sugar to mask bitter notes. You can see from our comparison chart that we surpass the competition, due to our high quality.

c. Our shake is diabetic friendly. Many shakes use sugar, fructose, or other sweeteners that can spike blood sugar. This may result in low energy, hunger, and more. Ours has no added sugar, and is diabetic friendly.

d. We use 3 specially processed proteins. This provides fast, and long lasting hunger control, and can also help maintain lean muscle while targeting fat. Our shake has been specially processed to remove lactose, remove fat, remove carbohydrates, and remove isoflavones from the soy that can impact estrogen. Therefore, body builders, those sensitive to hormones can use our shake.

e. We include ingredients that other shakes don't. We include digestive enzymes to help maximize protein absorption, prebiotics to support the bodies detox process and digestive health, vitamins, minerals, calcium, and more.

f. Affordability. There is simply no other shake that matches what we offer, for the price! By having a Body By Vi shake a day you can not only help fuel your body with powerful nutrients, but you can save money too.

3. How does the Body By Vi Shake help me lose or maintain weight?

The shake can help you lose, or maintain weight depending on how you use it. To lose weight, we recommend using it in place of 2 meals per day, along with sensible snacks (like the ViSalus Nutra-Cookie™), and meal. You can use it for any 2 meals. To maintain weight, we recommend that you have 1 shake per day, and ideally for breakfast.
Why is this?

Well, if we compare the shake blended with non-fat milk (or soy milk, rice milk , or almond milk) and fruit, the shake will provide 20-25 grams of protein, a full serving of fiber, calcium, prebiotics, digestive enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and more, all for around 240 calories.

How Body By Vi Shakes Fit Into A Plan Of Weight Loss: This is based partly on the science of Ketosis. Body By Vi Shakes work under two principals. They save you calories on your meals and they save you sugars and carbs, while giving you more protein. The goal here is to get your body into a state of ketosis (low state of fat burning) so that it's able to burn fat instead of sugars and carbs. Accountability is key, make sure to get enough protein each day, watch sugars and carbs (read the labels) and keep a food log of EVERY meal - including the snacks.
