How Can Meal Replacement Shakes Supplement My Weight Loss Eating Plan?

How Can Meal Replacement Shakes Supplement My Weight Loss Eating Plan?

According to the US National Center for Health Statistics, more than 42% of adult Americans are obese. That means they’re at significant risk of potentially life-threatening health problems ranging from heart attacks and strokes to diabetes and liver disease.

The reasons for losing weight are many and indisputable, but achieving lasting results can be a considerable challenge. At Hopkins MD, we use meal replacement shakes, nutritional supplements, GLP-1 medications like semaglutide, and integrative health coaching to optimize our patients’ weight loss efforts.

When you reduce your calorie intake, it becomes harder to get essential nutrients that keep your metabolism active and your body functioning properly. That’s where meal replacement shakes can help.

Nutritional supplementation for sustainable weight loss

Successful weight loss isn’t about quick fixes; it’s about maintaining muscle while achieving long-term fat loss. Experts recommend consuming one gram of protein per pound of lean body mass to preserve muscle while burning fat.

One of the easiest and most effective ways to meet your protein needs is by drinking two Cornerstone Wellness Meal Replacement shakes per day.

These shakes help control hunger, making it easier to stick to your eating plan. In addition to meal replacement shakes, your diet should focus on fresh produce and protein while significantly reducing starchy foods and sweets.

Nutrient deficiencies and weight loss

Being overweight increases your chances of having a nutrient deficiency, which can negatively affect your health and slow your weight loss progress. Common deficiencies found in overweight individuals include:

A well-structured weight loss program should address these deficiencies through proper nutrition and supplementation. That’s why Hopkins MD includes nutrition counseling as a key part of its weight loss program.

Health and wellness coach Julie Barker ensures that each patient receives the nutritional guidance they need to stay healthy while achieving their weight loss goals.

Benefits of meal replacement shakes

A team of nutritionists, internists, endocrinologists, biochemists, and cardiologists developed Cornerstone Wellness Meal Replacement to support effective and sustainable weight loss. Here are some of its key benefits:

Gluten and soy-free Cornerstone Wellness Meal Replacements have a delicious, creamy consistency, six types of fiber for digestive regularity, and the highest protein content of any all-natural medical meal replacement. They offer unmatched hunger control for easier adherence to your weight loss plan

Studies show that meal replacement-based diets are significantly more effective than diets based on food intake. By incorporating Cornerstone Wellness Meal Replacements into your diet, you can maintain a calorie deficit without feeling deprived, ensuring a smoother and more effective weight loss journey.

Additional nutritional support for weight loss

In addition to meal replacement shakes, we offer MetAssist® and OmegaHealth® — two supplements designed to support overall health and enhance weight loss.

MetAssist: The carb craving breakthrough

If you struggle with carb cravings, MetAssist can help. This supplement can:

OmegaHealth: Essential omega-3 support

Omega-3 fatty acids play a crucial role in weight loss and overall health. This ultra-purified, high-potency omega-3 supplement is essential for:

With 1,280 mg of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) per serving, it delivers a super-high dose in a natural 2:1 ratio for optimal effectiveness.

Unlike many fish oil supplements, OmegaHealth® undergoes triple molecular distillation to ensure purity, preventing any fishy burps or aftertaste.

Cornerstone Wellness Meal Replacements, MetAssist, and OmegaHealth can make the weight loss process easier and more effective. If you’re ready to commence your weight loss journey with expert guidance, we’re here to help.
