Nobody in their right mind advocates replacing all food with meal supplement shakes. They're just a good way to help supplement good eating habits and a way to help over eaters limit their food intake.
Yeah right. They kind of make themselves sound stupid.
Why do you need to supplement food?
@@HaggisMuncher-69-420 Health smoothies and shakes are a really great way to ingest a lot of nutrition at once, hence why they're a good supplement to food.
@@badmoonknight5009 not to mention the fact the foods we buy have significantly lost their nutritional value over the decades of agroscience. this is definitely a good way to supplement your diet aside from strictly monitoring everything such as what you prepare to eat and taking specific vitamins etc. I personally take huel black if I have no time or things in the fridge to prepare a good lunch or anytime throughout the day, and would otherwise be better if I had just eaten eggs or whatever was lying around.
@@badmoonknight5009 You mean blending fresh fruit and vegetables?
Totally agree.
Huel isn't that though.
It's easy to be this arrogant when you have all time to sit and do podcasts. Try cooking 3 meals a day, working out and raising kids on top of working a 60 hour/ 6 day work week into your life. Youll definitely use mela replacement shakes.
I totally agree. These people live under a rock if they don't know that much.
Depends, if your wife also works all the time, then quite frankly, it will be hard. The only bad thing that came from female entrance in the job market is the neglect some children may or may not face. I really hope I'm wrong because if you do feed your children this tasteless slush with poor nutritional value, then you are basically setting it up for a future nutritional problem. Also the family bond is all formed in the table, the chatting, the jokes and everything else involving interaction serves as a way to bond with your children. It is tough but your children come first, they always do, switch jobs, take days off, do something, but let that something be impactfull to your child in a good way of course. Again, I am not telling you how to raise a child, I am here just to remind you what your responsibilities are.
@@memezurdreamz2203 who said anything about feeding this to kids? If your feeding this to kids than a job that requires long hours is the least of your worries.
@@shpfro you said it, but I also believe that these meals should be complementary to your diet. Your meals should still consist of solid foods that provide essential nutrients.
I burn 3000 to 4000 calories a day at work. I get back shattered. Meal replacements are all I can be honestly be bothered making some nights. At that point in the day, food is fuel.
"What a great example of humans narcissistic arrogance".
Proceeds as the very definition of narcissistic.
Hardly. You even understand the term?
@@tomturnerrrr I would entertain you, but your grammar is preventing that.
@@Ryan40272 exactly as I figured, nope.
@@tomturnerrrr I don’t debate with people who type like they’re still in the sixth grade.
@@Ryan40272 Everything he typed is more than digestible. If you're too lazy or scared to debate something then just admit it or ignore it. Piss off with this "oh you actually don't type exactly the way I want therefore you're not worth my time" bullshit, you twat.
food addicts, that have no sense of portion control whatsoever, can use them while in therapy and to lose the excess weight... this guy was being arrogant and narcissistic for not considering that increasing demographic...
true.. non addicts don't really understand.. it saves me, i work at a fast food where a burger can go up to 600 calories, but a meal replacement shake is around 200 and it keeps me full. Is it a magical formula, no. But it works when you need to quickly fill up, especially if you're an emotional eater.. so instead of mindless eating on the way.. i have a shake and a protein bar and I'm full. Especially when they are sugar free.. so next time i take a sugary candy bar after a long time, i feel so sick from sugar so i don't think about going back to sweets ever again lol 😂 talk about a "relationship" with food.. but that's the reality, there are sooo many people in the world with this problem. I tackle it now with some supplements and shakes
I didn’t know what this is. I was searching for meal replacements because I’m autistic and haven’t been able to eat properly for weeks
@JJerem Not everyone has the time for that, I work 65 hours a week and am completely exhausted when I’m not working I don’t have the time or energy to prepare food. These would be a fuck load healthier for me than the fast food I constantly have
@Mithrandir you think you’re being inspiring but you’re just being insulting. Completely ignorant of the improvements the guy made to his lifestyle. He’s a heavy eater who likes the long lasting effects of the meal replacement. Let him improve in peace.
@Mithrandir okay… what the fuck does he do if he doesn’t like chicken? Okay… what the fuck does he do if he doesn’t like turkey? You act like people are all dumber than you and only end up looking dumb yourself. Leave him alone and bake your own damn chicken. Tired of hearing about it. Kid found something that works for him that didn’t work for you. Kid obviously has had oven baked chicken before and it didn’t work. We’re not all 99 pound prematurely born Napoleons.
For me it's a matter of finances and time efficiency. I skip breakfast almost every single day because I don't have time. I think having a mix to drink in the morning is better than nothing considering I almost never have breakfast.
You could try getting up earlier. Financially, a basic traditional food diet should be cheaper than the powder alternative.
Personally I make DIY protein pancakes in the morning (look up knockoff kodiak cakes). Takes me 30 minutes while I get dressed and whatever.
EDIT: I make the mix in advance, then simply add milk to the mix and cook in the morning.
Works for me, then I do a meal replacement for lunch because I can't sit and eat at work.
same, I had been skipping breakfast for years! A nutritional shake is definitely better than nothing
everyone has time, just wake up earlier lol,
@@jaycehezekia441 “jUsT wAKe uP eARlIeR” is such a bullshit thing to say don’t even go there
My son is on a liquid diet because he can’t physically swallow, so yeah not only do some people survive on it, they depend on it. I’m considering a meal replacement, but only for breakfast because I’m absolutely terrible at eating anything in the morning
I do that for my breakfasts I use something called Huel which is all plant based and nutritionally complete the vanilla is nice
@@lyricalbrit is huel smooth or does it have little bits in?
@@metalmad89 it has flax seeds in but you dont notice them really, the texture is pretty smooth when mixed well, it's mostly really finely ground oats that make up huel
I agree!!! . I use Orgain Organic Plant based protein which literally has every green vegetable , super foods, and amino acids in it then I add a banana, peanut butter, Kale , spinach, cinnamon, and honey and use Grass-fed milk! Its so delicious and filling! I literally crave it! I feel great only ingesting this twice a day.
Did he have dysphagia
I enjoy meal replacements to get me back on track after depression pulls me into the habit of emotionally eating too often.
This. Same.
Imagine thinking everyone enjoys cooking.
I love it. Just hate prep and the washing up after!! 😆
@@YouPube_X
Actually the cooking part itself makes me feel dirty, I much prefer the preparation and the cleaning up afterwards.
I'm also incredibly autistic.
Imagine thinking everyone has the time for cooking.
@@sjtv6565 I hardly cook but randomly decide to make something long and technical (for me anyway) and just end up feeling bad.
I need to wash up & clean either as I cook or before I can eat.
@NOBO Takoda it doesn't have to take long. Anyone doesnt enjoy hasnt learnt to do it.
I hate the act of eating idgaf about food if I didn’t need to eat I wouldn’t
Same same same
I WISH I had that problem lol
Bro meal replacements aren't for every meal lmao. People that do that are psychos. It's like an easier breakfast/ lunch and you can get a ton of good ingredients into powder form instead of just eating bacon eggs and potatoes every morning.
Agree. What kind of person would think to live on meal replacement shakes? He doesn't understand driving 40 miles a day to work and the whole idea is that it helps in a pinch. It's better than going and getting a greasy breakfast sandwich.
@@KWizard__This man living in Japan has been only taking this meal replacement for the last 6 years. He said eating foods is a waste of time. He seems pretty healthy after checking his body. ua-cam.com/video/EkAyDjwVjMU/v-deo.htmlsi=yp2279kccRUqk9eI
When this guy says "we're so arrogant and narcissistic" he should really be saying "I'm so arrogant and narcissistic" because that would be more true. A whey protein breakfast replacement has helped me achieve fat loss and muscle gain, but this guy is so selfish and arrogant that he just wants to feed his ego from a high horse.
You may have lost weight and felt you've achieved your goal. But it's a guarantee that you are not getting the same high level nutrients as you would from eating actual food for breakfast.
Agree and agree 😂
These dudes really bitching about it because it doesn’t fit “their” lifestyle. These shakes are perfect for a quick lunch, breakfast or dinner or post workout. Not everybody has time to cook an entire meal. Should it replace meals completely? Personally I don’t think so but I’m not going to shit on someone who does think so. If it works for them and they are healthy let em be stop thinking your better than everybody else.
That’s what thought too as a Fitness Coach. I think that meal replacement shakes works for sooo many people and if it works, don’t change it👌
I work in an office building and the surrounding lunch options are limited and expensive. I'm not looking to replace food entirely. Just some healthy, convenient and inexpensive alternatives to replace 1 meal, 5 days a week. I guess this question was asked to the wrong people. Remember, it's ok to say " I don't know"
the guy looking up whenever he is talking, why did you put his script screen above him, that cruelty
I thought he was just rolling his eyes out loud. 🙄🙄🙄
responsible labels on meal replacements say replace only one meal with this. i agree with the guys in the video. you cant and shouldnt replace every meal with powder drinks. for me i'm a fat guy. and i have an addiction to fast food. for me it would be healthier to drink a meal replacement than to get a take away. i think if you eat oats. fry an egg. eat an apple. and put a meal replacement in there. and thats your intake for a day. i think you'll be fine.
U get it dude 👍🏽
For me it’s ironic because I used to take some meal replacements because as a kid I was anorexic and extremely picky, my mother feared that I would drop dead one day from lack of nutrition so she started to give me a very high fat high protein meal replacements to fill me up and now I’m 18 still a little underweight but I’m taking the meal replacements to keep and maintain my weight. Also I suck at cooking healthy meal I just eat fruits eggs and I completely cut dairy out of my diet
@@neuralgarden yes!
first off as a health nut when i was younger and i did all that stuff, body building, protein drinks, etc. Your body does NOT get all the nutrients it needs during the day, especially for normal people who eat junk food, bad food, etc. That is why multi vitamins were invented. There isn't anything wrong with meal replacements if they are decent, protein drinks were developed for a REASON, they wouldn't exist if body builders didn't use them, and they work. Food of course is THE best way to get vitamins, minerals etc into your body for process, your body was designed to use them that way, but most people don't have the time, or money to eat correctly. If they did, everyone would be in great shape, no fat people, lots of healthier people. The world doesn't work that way. I was just listening to this guy laughing about someone who knows nothing about anything. 90% of the world doesn't eat correctly to be that way. Use meal replacements if you want, the good ones do what they are suppose to do. Its quick and easy to grab a quick non-healthy meal out the door, its a lot longer to grab and make a healthy one. If you can make up your shake in a minute or 2 and be on your way, great, you don't have time to whip up the fish and salad healthy meal you SHOULD be eating, but a replacement meal is better than picking up some donuts and coffee on the way to work.
I don’t replace my meals with meals replacement but do use it instead of protein powder cuz it has more vitamins, is that okay?
I drank jimmy joy-shakes ONLY for several months while working out a lot. I lost almost 40 pounds of body weight during that time. I felt awesome. Also got checked by several doctors. Excellent blood work, heart function, etc. Of course you can't be sure what this kind of diet might do to you in the long run but considering my experience I doubt it would harm you. The body is so adaptable and can deal quite well with even very extreme forms of diet. A vegan meal consisting of things like oat, flax seed and soy with all the needed amino acids, vitamins and minerals sounds like a rather good choice if you ask me. 😄
MREs baby! I haven’t pooed in months! 😃👍
Lmfao
@@sarrormiki3363 think of all the time you would save, that is amazing.
U must be healthy
😂
I just want to take a meal replacement whenever im too busy in school, didnt have to hear all about how meal replacements can change the society itself.
It all depends on the person. For someone like me who wakes up early to hit the gym. I like them before the workout because I hate eating food when I first wake up
Let’s be natural and drink water for the river instead of bottled one, human is so arrogant to think that he can just open the bottle and drink water
to be fair plastic polution is a global problem.
@@GloryBlazer absolutely, it was a metaphor. Also bottle can be made from any material, I didn’t specify that I’m speaking about plastic bottles.
@@Xkazzak Well as long as it's not natural it's gonna have a hard time decomposing in the nature. The problem with meal replacements are the non-natural ingredients, for example sweetners such as maltodextrin, and if you look up how soy protein isolates are made you will see problems with that aswell.
Congrats on completely not understanding the question. Someone asks about meal replacements and you rant about about something that wasn't asked. No one said anything about never eating whole foods again and never eating with friends again. LoL at calling someone arrogant when your answer was the definition of arrogance.
Thanks! This was very helpful and to the point
For a person with a ridiculously high metabolism( i walk about 20k steps a day) meal replacements lets me meet and add surplus calories to my body. I have to keep eating throughout my entire workshift. If i dont i start dropping wieght because burn through crazy amounts of calories. I dont have money/time to cook the amount of calories i need for work.
Is that mre meal replacement any good? Like providing lots ofnutrients
Valid points but full of generalisations. The psychological value of eating food is true for *some* people. Comments lose value when they stereotype to this extent.
Best one I've come across is that growli muesli which is a meal you chew not drink, you can turn it into a shake though. It is based around diary protein and organic grains and seeds
What I do is mix vanilla whey protein powder with juice and fruits that I enjoy. I make a nice little smoothie and it’s filled with proteins and vitamin C. And it is a meal replacement for me because I eat small meals every two hours and what it does is it leaves me filled up for 2 to 3 hours and it’s a total of about 300 calories and 50g of protein. I usually make one in the morning because I’d rather sleep longer and not have to cook breakfast. I prepare my lunch, which is usually a salad and I pack fruits for meal, two and four during my breaks at work. And I have food already prepared for dinner every three days that I just have to reheat. One meal replacement shake a day maybe even two sometimes it’s almost mandatory for me less dishes less money spent it’s healthy and it’s delicious.
What about just breakfast and lunch? I miss breakfast and my lunch is always garbage i have to eat on the go and was looking at these as a better alternative
HLTH Code looks to be one of the best if you feel the need to drink your meals. They are keto friendly.
i try and stay away from protein powder as much as possible, but my new job doesnt allow people to eat while on the job and i feel like i now have to drink like an MRE, or those MET-RX drinks. i would rather eat, but i have to do these now it feels like. I am looking for another job though.
My problem is I dont start cooking till I'm already super hungry so the shakes are super fast but nothing replaces good food an FAT.
I’m always keep track of my food, what i ate and how much is it that i got... and I also use meal replacement for almost 3 years because i want to gain weight but many times that i can’t eat more to reach the number of calories. yeah, it helped me many times. Also everybody know, another reason is healthy food is hard to get sometimes. In the past i had a habit of eating Frozen food from convenient store everyday and sit still working all day.. that cause me a pain in my chest once or twice a month.. until someone gave me an advice to change from eating frozen food to drinking meal replacement and try to go eating at restaurant, yeah after that i just get better, no more symptom and have new habit of being picky with foods unlike my friends. It’s not that we need to live our life with these shakes, we still can consume junk foods, eating fat, enjoy sugar🤣 because the key of healthy life is adequacy, moderation. When You know that yesterday you ate bad things Today you just need to eat something healthier and do some cardio, lift weight! That’s all. Another key is Gain muscle! It will increase your metabolism!
Sorry if my english made you feel irritate, this is my third language.
Don’t forget us who can’t eat like others for whatever reason that are just looking for an honest opinion for a good one!
Meal replacement is all u need for your body to function all liquid and keep on goin about your day best damn thing ever made
Function does not contradict under performance. Any other method of cooking is just better.
i love that there was a Huel ad before this video
I have a shake in the morning for breakfast because I can't just get up and make food, it's quicker to just grab a shake and drink on the way to work. I have oatmeal with peanut butter for lunch, some jerky or nuts for a snack some time during the day either beforeor after lunch, and I go ham on my dinner. I also work upwards of 16 hours a day, sometimes more, in construction, and if I got time after work if I'm at the gym. It's just more feasible for me to do that.
Huel is ideal for me. I have a traditional meal for lunch but for breakfast and my meal at work I have a Huel. Slow releasing, and satisfies me. I used to have a sandwich at work and a couple of hours later I was hungry again picking on unhealthy snacks.
I have more energy now and I'm regular each day, my skin is better and I'm spending a fraction of what I used to spend
Best nutrition decision I've ever made!
The guy on here who has a problem by looking upwards each time he says a sentence is talking a load of BS.
Try ka chava. It’s better than huel and vegan
@@kailanistegehuis2460 Huel is vegan
Thing is it has flaxseed which raises estrogen
This is exactly why we need the dislike counter back on UA-cam, to be able to know what's bollocks and what's not. It's a good job the comments are open!
Fuck those meal replacements! I’m off to McDonald’s... 😂
Good morning Sunday January 29th 12:48 a.m. ka'chava it's good for you if your Diabetic Type 2 it's a healthy Shake yes or no
What about a guy in the trades, I don’t eat breakfast and lunches are quick and often brutally unhealthy. Would it not be wise to try and supplement those lack of and unhealthy meals with something that gives my body what it needs?
so, not for a lunch replacement then eat healthy dinner?
As long as it's used as a supplement, implementing a meal replacement is fine.
Extreme opinions by the main speakers. If you took the same open minded approach you applied to your sponsors supplement powder…as in situational usefulness…as in…the meal replacement isn’t as good as a beautifully prepared lean meal with kale and what not vs it’s certainly better than a double pounder with cheese meal…then this podcast could have some usefulness. It’s hubris to assume that a majority of folks are eating great healthy meals and considering replacing them with powder. You could tell before the comments began that they weren’t going to come from a place of any reasonable perspective. Disappointing.
Nothing can replace healthy, home cooked meals. What is the big issue with cooking anyway?
I don’t think anyone is giving up food for meal replacement. But what about replacing just your first meal of the day when you’re not hungry?
well I'm glad i googled that
These guys are talking like people only drinking meal replacements. Who's trying to live off of meal replacements?
More than you think, its kinda depressing thinking about it
I dont think allot of ppl do. I judt replace breakfasr cuz I cant stand the dry bread in my mouth every morning
I wanted to use Huel or Kachava for the protien...like a protien shake and still eat my 3 meals.
I cant digest food :( it hurts my stomach so bad
That's because you're a robot.
I believe it depends on the person, the body, the brain, and the circumstance. May not be the best option for everyone, but many could benefit.
Outside of soy protein isolate and maltodextrin I don't see a big problem in using MANA. That being said a wholefood diet is healthier.
This comment section just ripped these Chads in half 🤣
I was diagnosed a few years ago with lymphocytic esophagitis, so eating a balanced meal isn't possible--it simply won't go down my inflamed gullet. So besides eggs and potatoes which goes down easy, I've had to greatly rely on shakes. Kate Farms, Kachava, Soylent, I just rotate them as best I can. But yeah, for some of us this isn't a choice.
The one guy who answered first is addicted to food. Nothing is wrong with a meal replacement. It's protein carbs fats minerals and vitamins. Easier on your digestive system. I don't eat to enjoy it with friends like it's drugs or alcohol. A shake after a workout or in the morning is pretty much a meal replacement. I don't think people are replacing every meal with a meal replacement shake. But you can if you want.
I don’t think this is to ban food but it works for ppl that can make a shake and keep it moving
I don’t get complex dieting, keto, veganism, meal replacement shakes, or anything like that. But as a rule if you can get grain, dairy, meat, vegetables, and fruits in a good balance you’ll be healthy.
I think of meal replacement, protein shakes as a temporary nutrition food for people with illness that can't eat solid foods and have to be on a liquid diet or whatever ..somebody whose just had surgery for mouth cancer isn't going to want to eat .. their gonna want their meal thru a straw ..but that's the only thing meal replacement drinks are good for
To be fair most people are eating a shit boxed cereal in the morning and a lunch that's pre packaged or just a pastry which is just as mindless and completely devoid of nutrition
I tried intermittent fasting and the brain fogs were so horrible I was worried I would lose control while driving or focusing on important tasks. So instead of fasting, I take these low-calorie powder meals so I don't pass out. It has helped me so far
thats called withdrawal symptoms your so addicted to sugar/coffee that your body thinks its dying because its use to getting coffee and sugar everyday several times a day tough it out for a week or accept you'll forever be dependent on some kind of stimulus or powder or shake to just exist as a person you wont die from starvation from fasting
Mind you, ppl drink protein shakes all the time but no one says anything about that. I don't think people take meal replacements to ever eat again. I think it's just about some meals to help people who don't have time for certain specific meals
Like the guy was saying they help with control . Not everyone has the time or facilities to weigh their food , cook , or prep. These MRD (meal replacement drinks) give you an idea of portion control by providing you with the satiated feeling. Maybe the person who is trying these MRD had an issue With food constantly snacking or eating terribly these can help them reset. This isn't really for people who have a healthy and controlled relationship to food . This is like a stepping stone for self discipline because weighing your food and preping when you have never had to do that before is intimidating and it can turn people off of it really quick
I would use huel w/ fairlife milk if you look at the nutrients of the two together wow. I would actually cook my dinner though.
But for the money and ease it’s hard to beat huel with fairlife milk also
Fairlife abuses their cows
@@iamgreatness6649 they all do
Universal meal replacement are my go to for breakfast,sipping it in my car
this guy is 100% right
So ive just ordered yfood its got to be better than nothing i live a busy stressful life just about earning enough to pay the bills so having liquid food has got to be better than what im doing now wich is skipping breakfast skipping dinner and eating takeaway late at night just the fact that i will be actually getting some essential vitamins and minerals will undoubtedly make me feel better than i do now 🤞
Well there not meant to be a complete replacement gor food but a supplement for when you can't get a meal in. Like doing it in the morning because most people can't get a good breakfast
👍
Meal replacements are 100 times better than the regular american diet
It's funny that he says that you can't live off of meal replacement powders/shakes. But the interesting thing, is that all four of my children were born and raised on formula only (powdered Enfamil or Isomil) since their mother was unable to produce breast milk. And there are millions of other families around the world doing the same. So this is not an uncommon process or phenomenon or something, and is completely healthy for the baby to be fed this way. Can adults receive the same types of nutrition as babies? Sure, why not! I mean, think about all the other junk we shove into our mouths every day that really is completely unhealthy and we seem to stay alive, not even referring to tobacco products or alcohol. Every drive-thru is much worse, and most groceries are full of partially hydrogenated, or enriched bleached flours, or high fructose corn syrups, yet we still keep shoving them down our throats calling it "food". So this idea that a meal replacement can't exist and can't sustain a human as well or better than the solids is false. I have been on it for months solid with no deviation. And my body only had problems with my diet when I had a cheat day with regular food. Otherwise, everything was normal, my health was stable and acceptable, and my weight was being properly managed.
In my opinion I don't see anything wrong with using a meal replacement powder strictly as a SUPPLEMENT. If you're trying to bulk, and you at least eat your other meals just fine and are totally balanced with veggies, fruit, protein, carbs, fats etc. having a healthy made meal replacement powder will help you reach your caloric needs. I suppose this video was geared mainly towards those who strictly rely on just meal replacement shakes/drinks which some people really do need meals in liquid form due to circumstances, but those who have the ability to eat raw home-made food should do so, but certainly doesn't hurt to also use meal replacements/ mass gainers to help aid your caloric goals in a given day.
I agree with some of the things he said and some I don’t. Some of the people they just don’t have time. Even if you try to make time. Now if they replace the whole meals with liquid that’s something else. Which is bad. But if you replace 1 meal what’s so wrong with that? Why attack people that live different that you do? Calling them narcissistic just because of that? I think everyone is stilted to their own opinion and is respectable but that doesn’t make you right of give you the right to judge other for the way of living.
This guy looks bit like older fearless Dan
I actually see what they’re saying agree with them mostly about the marketing to basically replace every meal. I think the biggest not being talked about tho is WHAT exactly the meal replacement is. For example, something like Ka’Chava is completely different from something like Ensure or Slim Fast. One is extremely nutrient dense and made of actual food while the others are mostly fillers; basically an adult form of baby formula. All in all, I don’t think they’re necessarily bad. It just depends on the WHAT your putting in your body, where it come from, etc.
It’s annoying when people take a general question and pull to the extreme. Replacing mealS is different than replacing A meal. If you want to be technical about it, we shouldn’t be eating as much as we do. Our bodies were made to be in ketosis but the food industry won us over with the idea of “3 square meals a day”. Early days of humanity would laugh in all our faces if they knew we have been complaining about what, how, and where we are getting our food.
I was hoping they would present some positives(like nutrients, fibers, minerals, etc) to this conversation, but from the gecko they drop a bombardment of negatives to even calling people arrogant... Smh never listening to these people again.. 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️✌🏾✌🏾✌🏾
these guys must be paid by big food, the future is literally a pill that gives you all nutrients you need for a day
In my humble opinionated contribution: lol Powered Supplement's should be ADDED to a healthy diet, NOT replaced, Scientist are gracious in their constant evolving findings to ALWAYS learning & sharing more to better our lives,,, so that we can LIVE longer & while having the energy & the time to do MORE of the activities we LOVE... The activities that give purpose & meaning to our mere existence. & that's my 2 copper cents for the day! LOL 🌹
At this particular time,I would not recommend using meal replacement shakes,aa a substitute,for a healthy nutritious meal.
But I will say,I love the idea,and ease of use
not recommending,for everyday use
but they're definetly are beneficial,when you use them
I 😊😊😊😊 the fact that they're were invented.
I don't even know why they would make a supplement named soylent. Obviously just makes you think of Soylent Green. "It's people. Peoplllllle.!!!!!!!" 😆
Since science and humanity still do not know much about food and how it works in the body; I’m glad these gentlemen have so much figured out and can guide us away from the malefic meal replacement. Thanks!!
I wake up and take my meds and drink a shake so my stomach dosent get upset
Cooking from easily purchased foods from supermarkets or markets is a lot easier than going out to hunt or grow your own food like we used to. Humans are getting lazier and lazier always looking for the shortcut for the best outcome. Our bodies need to breakdown and digest. Liquids do not leave any work for the mouth to chew, the internal organs to do their job as they were created to do. Yes they have there place for sickness recovery, people unable to digest whole foods, old people, kids with certain illnesses but to replace entire meals is just ridiculous. And before you say i just don't have time. That all comes down to discipline no matter what life style you have. No kids or 10 kids, pets or whatever. If you have to you will do. I mean you make sure your kids are clothed and fed and you do everything to make it happen. You make sure you are at work on time and do your job. DISCIPLINE, don't be lazy and find excuses.
I was just tying to see if I could have a meal replacement shake at work bruh. Don’t get mad at me
MRP should only be drank when you know you'll miss a meal due to a meeting or whatever. It should never replace proper food. It's good to have it as a backup you can use on the go as an emergency meal.
Lol this guy is definitely gonna look so stupid in the far future when they actually prefect this 😂😂😂
Ctrl has a great meal replacement
I think the man in the video missed the point of the question. He’s kid of going off the deep end of the question in which we weren’t looking for the answer to, and he’s kind of reaching a little. I’m sure whoever asked the question wants to know what’s his thoughts on meal replacement FOR WHT ITS FOR, and that’s to replace one meal as a lower calorie choice to achieve some kind of deficit.
Shit I didn't get my morning Breastmilk as a baby to wake up, and didn't get my nighttime breakmilk to sleep.
I guess I'm not a perfect human.
I don't think anybody should live off of meal replacements alone, but I'm willing to bet that one a day is going to give the average person more nutrients than they would ever receive in their regular diet.
They talk as if you can't have a balanced diet, meal replacements don't mean you ONLY drink the powder 2 to 3 times a day, forever,
If you know your daily intake, substitute a breakfast or lunch for one liquid meal, it is more about you have the basic dietary daily amount in the shakes, and if like me you are older with a gut or just overweight, you need to reduce intake of calories,
Most older people have added health complications, but you need to be able to reduce your calorie intake but still feel full instead of snacking on crisps and sweets,
And if you feel full and consume less calories you should lose weight, it isn't a case of being lazy, poor sods on minimum wage, 60 hours a week, no time or money for the gym or a personal trainer or even weight watchers should also be able to live a healthy balanced diet,
There isn't just 1 way to do it, closed minded people will always push their narrative as the correct one, but ultimately it is an individuals choice to decide how they want to change their own life,
Inform yourself with all the information and make your own decision on how you procede, as to do nothing will end in tears,
Your body is a temple.
This guys goin on a rant, do they work or not? its not permanent. If it works, i dont die then lmk which one and how long ffs
Does this dude think people go to restaurants and order meal replacement shakes?
Wow. The dislikes outweigh the likes on this. That says it all. And stop looking off to the side, it's incredibly distracting that you are unable to focus on the person in front of you.
I really don’t think the question was about slimfast😂
Some of this is legit. I dislike the notion that people are lazy who aren’t working out and weighing their food. I’m working 160 hour checks bi-weekly. Some of us ain’t got the time to live in the gym and do podcasts about “lazy” people.
I disagree this is so annoying . I use Orgain Organic Plant based protein which literally has every green vegetable , super foods, and amino acids in it then I add a banana, peanut butter, Kale , spinach, cinnamon, and honey and use Grass-fed milk! Its so delicious and filling! I literally crave it! I feel great only ingesting this twice a day.
The hell he keeps looking up at
Huel rules!
