Herbalife is a worldwide nutrition brand offering high-quality, convenient, nutrition solutions to busy professionals globally. Best known for meal replacement and protein shakes, the company continues to expand its product offerings with some of the most popular products including:
Herbalife Nutrition advertises its products via its army of direct selling associates, called “Herbalife Independent Members“. DietPal is owned and operated by Andrew Hill, an authorised distributor and Herbalife Independent Member and we act as a vehicle to sell Herbalife products.
The benefits of direct selling associates like DietPal, who are run by qualified nutrition experts and personal trainers, is that we are able to deliver essential nutrition coaching to help you achieve your health and lifestyle goals.
Herbalife is one of the largest weight loss brands and nutrition brands in the world and has been around for more than 40 years. Today, people enjoy Herbalife products in more than eighty different countries but no global success is without controversy. The brand has come under tremendous scrutiny throughout its history for being a Multi-Level Marketing company. The MLM model isn’t illegal but because individual distributors of the products are unregulated, there are risks of bad practices taking place; despite Herbalife having clear rules and systems in place, they’re unable to proactively prevent such practices, they can only respond to them and they do so with severity.
The bad practices arrive. primarily, from the activities of those who have recruited them. Because direct selling associates are responsible for growing the network of distributors by recruiting their “down-line”. The down line is people they have recruited and the people those they recruit also recruit. When someone is recruited into an MLM company, like Herbalife, one of three things typically happens:
Those who fall into category three will have likely been sold on the promise of “get-rich-quick”, which simply doesn’t exist in the real world. Or perhaps they haven’t received adequate support, or they’re too lazy to put in the work to successfully build a business. In any event, the desperation to succeed manifests itself into dishonesty and this causes them to mislead other potential recruits who learn how not to build a business and they have the same experience as their upline. Their upline, whilst desperate, pretends to be living a wealthy lifestyle because that’s what they’ve been taught, despite it not being a reflection of reality.
The reality is that more than half of the businesses in the world fail in the first year, and 90% don’t make it to year 5. These statistics are true for MLM distributors in all companies, including Herbalife. However, those in categories 2 and 3 above will promote the business as easy, as though everyone is making a lot of money whilst only 10% of distributors earn more than £1000 before costs from their Herbalife business. The truth is, this business is hard. It’s competitive and it’s only for the brave and those willing to put in the work to succeed.
Herbalife doesn’t have a clean track record, the Federal Trade Commission levied hefty fines of $200 million in 2016. It was found that Herbalife, despite not promoting the opportunity as lucrative themselves, did not have sufficient rules in place to prevent distributors from deceiving consumers into believing they could make unrealistic amounts of money from simply recommending products to their friends. It also found that the compensation plan heavily favoured recruiting Herbalife distributors, rather than selling the product, which falls foul of pyramid selling regulations.
It was found eight years ago that whilst Herbalife themselves weren’t engaging in bad practices, it was determined that Herbalife had the power to prevent their distributors from doing so. So Herbalife took action to restructure its business and compensation plan, it ejected the bad actors from the business and the compensation plan favoured product sales whilst still offering significant monetary incentives for recruiting a downline.
Furthermore, many Herbalife ambassadors aren’t trained nutrition therapists, dieticians or fitness professionals. Whilst Herbalife provides the highest quality product training and nutrition and weight loss training, it is up to individual distributors to engage with this training and undertake their own continuous professional development. Many don’t, to them, Herbalife is simply a product to sell.
DietPal is different, owned and managed by Andrew Hill who is a celebrity Personal Trainer and nutrition expert specialising in fat loss featured in a number of health, fitness and lifestyle magazines and newspapers. He has helped more than 100 women to lose weight and feel great without cutting out the foods they love. As a nutrition expert, qualified and accredited by the Royal Society of Public Health, Andrew Hill delivers top-quality nutrition coaching and fitness training services, much of which is free for DietPal customers.
Getting started on the world-famous, highly effective, healthy Herbalife Diet is easy.
Herbalife uses the MLM business structure and our products aren’t available to purchase in shops on the high street. To purchase Herbalife products, you need to find a distributor who is directly affiliated with Herbalife. We’ve got you covered though. If you’re reading this article then you’ve already connected with us. Just visit our homepage to view our range or reach out to us via WhatsApp for help choosing products that are suitable for you.
If you’d rather buy from another Herbalife distributor, you can visit the Herbalife website and complete their form and a different distributor will contact you at some point.
Herbalife isn’t just about weight loss. We provide solutions to a range of health, diet and wellbeing needs whether you want to lose weight, gain weight, improve your strength, endurance and athleticism, take care of your skin, sleep better, feel more energised and so on.
DietPal and Andrew Hill specialise in fat loss specifically, although we possess expertise in all areas of health and fitness and we offer two core programs for weight loss, these are:
Once you’ve received your products, you’re ready to get started and it’s easy:
Drinking plenty of water and eating a balanced, healthy diet incorporating fruits and vegetables and high-quality sources of nutrition is essential for success with any of our plans.
Herbalife products offer premium nutrition and the benefits associated with high-quality nutrition are abundant. The cost will differ from product to product and each distributor has control over the prices they charge. DietPal are the cheapest UK supplier of Herbalife Nutrition products and have been since 2015; other Herbalife sellers simply can’t compete with our prices and regular deals and discount codes, emailed directly to you every single week!
Our core product prices are listed below (prices correct as of 27th July 224):
All of our products are designed to last at least one month (one serving per day). However, if you’re using our weight loss plan, you may need to buy an additional container of Herbalife Formula 1.
Health Line, an informative source of information and all of their articles are reviewed by a medical subject matter expert and therefore are an authority in the industry, offer pricing information for Herbalife Nutrition USA and are a reputable source of information. Despite this, Healthline takes a biased view against Herbalife, promoting them as overpriced and failing to identify the value offered by Herbalife and their distributors. Comparing the prices of Herbalife to other similar products on the market but disregarding the service provided by distributors in nutrition coaching. Andrew Hill, an exclusive personal trainer in the UK, charges more than £100 per hour for nutrition coaching services and this value is reflected in the offer provided by DietPal. Whilst our products are double the price of Slimfast, the coaching we offer extends beyond a single paragraph instruction on how to consume the product, instead, we teach you how to achieve the goals you want to achieve and how to sustain that result and progress long-term.
The Herbalife Diet helps people to lose weight by promoting a calorie deficit. A reduced caloric intake with meal replacement shakes and improved metabolic function from the supplements we offer will help you lose weight when used as part of a healthy, balanced diet.
The greatest benefit of DietPal Nutrition is that we offer all of our customers free nutrition coaching, this coaching is key to successfully losing fat and achieving a healthy weight and lifestyle. We help you to understand the state of your diet today and where you need to be so that you’re eating habits are healthy, by setting these foundations, your weight loss objectives wouldn’t only be achievable, but they’ll become sustainable long-term too!
The Herbalife diet is designed to help people lose weight by reducing calorie intake with meal replacement shakes and boosting metabolism with supplements.
The Herbalife Formula 1 Healthy Meal shakes are designed to replace meals or snacks customers consume throughout the day; the Formula 1 shakes are designed to promote a caloric deficit by offering all of the nutritional value a person needs in a single meal at fewer calories than their usual meal. They are nutritionally complete and accurately measured to give control without variants that exist in the regular food we eat; where there are many ingredients or components to a meal, maintaining control over the amount you eat isn’t always easy, a single-serving portion, however, is easy to keep track of.
The shakes can be mixed with water to offer an even lower calorie meal but Herbalife recommends using semi-skimmed milk or milk alternative, such as soya, oat, almond or other similar diary-free milk drinks. The addition of the Herbalife Protein Drink Mix creates a really luxurious texture when added to milk or, on its own mixed with water is a great, high protein milk alternative.
By itself, mixed with 240ml of semi-skimmed milk, each Herbalife Formula 1 Healthy Meal delivers just 170 calories and 17g of protein per serving so it becomes clear why meal replacement shakes including Herbalife Formula 1 are effective for promoting weight loss when incorporated into a healthy, balanced diet.
Studies have even proven that meal replacement shakes support weight loss with the greatest impact occurring in the short-term; this means that as a tool, meal replacement shakes can be used to get started on a weight loss journey. Andrew Hill, a personal trainer in Leicester who specialises in fat loss and who has helped hundreds of women to lose weight and feel great without cutting out the foods they love, suggests that meal replacement shakes “should be used as a means to an end, to promote weight loss whilst the individual builds the habits necessary to sustain a healthy weight long term.”
“Meal replacement shakes are effective when used to stem overeating and overconsumption, or to stop an episode of binge eating.” Andrew Hill, fat loss expert, continues, “we can’t just overhaul our diets and radically change it overnight because it’s completely unsustainable. The trick to sustainable weight loss dieting is to make small, habitual, realistic changes one at a time, consistently. By developing each new change into a habit before moving on to the next little change necessary, only then can we sustain a healthy weight long term when we return to ‘eating normally’ once we’ve achieved our healthy weight goal.”
He continues, “during episodes where a person who is addicted to food has uncontrollable urges that manifest into binge eating, healthy meal replacement shakes can be used effectively to end a binge eating phase, allowing the person to re-evaluate. It’s like a distraction. Rather than feeling guilty and avoiding food all together which has it’s own problems when it comes to fat loss, we can continue to consume high quality nutrition without feeling the need to gorge and feeling guilty as a result. What we need to remember is that when we binge eat, we rarely ravish the food bowl or the vegetable drawer of the fridge, if we did then maybe binge eating wouldn’t be such a problem!”
So using meal replacement shakes are key to getting a good step up when beginning a weight loss journey. Studies show that meal replacement shakes may help with weight loss, especially in the short-term. “Research suggests that they may be more effective for short-term weight loss than traditional low-calorie diets”, according to the National Library of Medicine. This gives credit to Andrew Hill’s comments regarding meal replacement shakes being an effective tool for weight loss. He says “meal replacement shakes are not a magic bullet to weight loss. It isn’t as simple as drinking the shake and losing the weight; you still need to develop the correct relationship with food otherwise any weight loss you achieve will simply be reversed when you stop dieting. People say a diet is for life but it isn’t, diets are dynamic and they adapt just as much as we need them to. Our body is good at signalling to us what we need, the trick is understanding the cues but sometimes, we need more of a certain nutrient than others to deal with things that go on inside us; if we’re poorly, for example, naturally we will want to consume more nutrients that will be beneficial to immune health and our body will tell us this – we feel better when our nutritional intake is correct for us and it’s a very individual thing. Government dietary recommendations are based on the average person and none of us is average.”
In a 2009 study, it was found that Herbalife promotes at least 0.5kg per week weight loss when used as part of a balanced diet. Researchers found that people who followed the Herbalife Diet lost on average 5kg in 12 weeks, which is the optimal rate of weight loss.
A scientific review studied the meal replacement shakes and determined that they may help to prevent weight gain over several years. Many of DietPal’s customers have achieved a healthy weight using our Herbalife Diet plan and have sustained their healthy weight for almost nine years so far!
“Research suggests that meal replacement shakes can help people lose weight in the short term, but additional diet and lifestyle strategies are necessary for long-term weight loss and maintenance”, according to Health Line.
The supplements recommended in the Herbalife weight loss programs include:
All claims have been scientifically backed up and are available to view on Herbalife.com
It’s no secret that after 40 years and operating in more than 80 countries that Herbalife is the world’s favourite weight loss brand despite the controversy the company has faced since its inception by Mark Hughes who founded the company after his mother tragically committed suicide by accidentally overdosing on weight loss pills. Mark Hughes made it his life’s mission to find a way for people to lose weight healthily, without starving themselves or needlessly putting their health at risk by taking untested, unregulated dietary supplements. Herbalife was founded to change the industry and offer wellness products whose claims are backed up by science.
But in addition to aiding weight loss, the Herbalife diet is incredibly easy and convenient to follow and it’s a unique selling point of the diet. Herbalife appeals to people of all ages, both men and women and have recently introduced a range of products for children, including nutrient rich gels and vitamin gummies.
The Herbalife Diet takes only moments to prepare each day; the amount of time it takes to boil a kettle is all it takes to make and consume a Herbalife Formula 1 Healthy Meal shake. The products are easy to prepare as well, with easy to follow instructions. It’s as easy as scooping the powder out of the tub using the provided measuring spoon and 240ml of semi-skimmed milk, milk alternative or water; a pint glass suits this measure perfectly. Herbalife also has a variety of products for people with allergies and sensitivities including vegan-friendly and gluten-free products.
Herbalife’s meal replacement shakes, the Herbalife Formula 1 Healthy Meal, uses a soy protein isolate that’s derived from soybeans. Research shows that soy protein lowers cholesterol and reduces the risk of heart disease. Soy proteins best health benefits come from the health-promoting polyphenols.
Andrew Hill, fat loss and nutrition expert explains “our nutritional needs are very personal and individual to each of us. Some people have allergies, sensitivities or are intolerant to ingredients in any foods or products. Meal replacement shakes, as an example, should be carefully consumed by pregnant and breastfeeding mothers, they’re fine as a snack but don’t provide enough sustenance to support both the mother and baby; if mum is replacing meals whilst breastfeeding then baby really needs to be bottle fed as well to supplement the nutritional deficiencies – meal replacement shakes are designed to sustain one person and one person only whilst promoting a caloric deficit. Common sense tells us they’re not suitable for mothers who exclusively breastfeed.”
Andrew Hill goes on to explain “it’s also important to double check how meal replacement therapies can interact with any medications you may take. A healthcare professional should be consulted before engaging with any new diet or exercise plan.”
The Herbalife Diet promotes weight loss by replacing two regular meals with a Herbalife Formula 1 Healthy Meal shake and permits two small snacks and one regular meal of your choice every day. It’s really easy and convenient and there’s no limit on what you can eat. Best practices show that choosing a healthier regular meal option and healthy snacks, which Herbalife also sell a range of healthy snacks, is conducive to successfully losing weight and Herbalife provides content that teaches healthier eating habits.
The army of independent Herbalife distributors also provide nutritional coaching whilst Andrew Hill takes it one step further with over 10 years of experience working in the weight loss industry, working with all different kinds of client with different obstances to losing weight. Andrew Hill, as an independent Herbalife distributor, imparts his expertise to his customers free of charge and really takes time to understand their needs. Andrew Hill explains “I make an effort to understand why we are fat. We’re all fat because we eat too much but why do we eat too much? That’s my job. Once we figure out why you’re eating too much, what your triggers are, only then can we work together to overcome them and develop strategies to deal and manage these triggers. In the meantime, we can look at the diet and understand the eating habits and establish exactly what needs to change. Then we can develop a plan of how we will achieve those changes, and at what stages changes will take place so that habits can be formed safely, without the risk of relapse. It’s a very complex process but I make it easy. I deal with the complexity, you benefit from the simplicity.”
A diet rich in lean meats, fruits and vegetables and healthy fats are the most effective foods we should be eating to maximise our healthy rate of weight loss whilst on the Herbalife Diet.
Whilst no foods are disallowed on the Herbalife Diet, dieters should aim for a lower-calorie meal option that’s high in protein. Calorie dense, poor quality foods that lack nutritional value are allowed but should be kept to a minimum if possible. Andrew Hill reminds us “we should always be able to enjoy food. If you don’t enjoy the flavour of the shakes then that particular brand of meal replacement shakes might not be for you. Likewise, if you hate eating healthily and would just feel better eating a few slices of pizza then go for it, just be mindful of how much you’re eating. There’s no point being in a calorie deficit all week if you’re just going to make up those calories by eating a whole pizza from Pizza Hut or Dominoes.”
Herbalife is for men and women of all ages and even has a range of products for children. Anyone who is looking for high-quality nutritionally dense and convenient food will find Herbalife to be a suitable option. Their go-to convenient meal replacement options is most suited to those of us with busy lives juggling work and career developments, as well as families. Whilst this article focuses on the Herbalife Diet in the context of weight loss, the Herbalife Diet can be adapted readily for those who want to maintain their current weight or even gain weight too.
Because meal replacement shakes promote a calorie deficit, Herbalife helps people to lose weight by offering a low-calorie, highly nutritious meal option as a replacement to two regular meals per day. Herbalife is a long-term solution for those who struggle with their weight because it can be used as a tool to maintain a healthy weight or even to gain weight too.
To lose weight, Herbalife recommends replacing two meals a day, Herbalife may help you lose weight by helping you achieve a calorie deficit which is essential for weight loss. Once you’ve achieved a healthy weight, you can then continue using the meal replacement shakes to sustain a healthy weight by simply replacing one meal a day.
Herbalife products are considered safe for most healthy adults. While they may be a quick and convenient option, they offer higher quality, more sustainably sourced ingredients than competing meal replacement brands. The combination of high-quality ingredients and convenience means they’re ideal for adults to drink.
Generally, Herbalife products are safe for adults to use. However, it’s best to speak with a healthcare professional to ensure they’re right for you if you’re using any medication or have any health or dietary concerns.
Though a whole, minimally processed diet is generally recommended, Herbalife meal replacements may be useful for those who have limited time to prepare meals and are looking to lose weight. Men and women of all ages buy Herbalife Meal Replacement shakes from DietPal with the support of Andrew Hill, one of the UK’s most exclusive personal trainers.
In some places, including the United Kingdom and United States, Herbalife sells a 21-day challenge kit. The 21-day challenge “combines healthy daily nutrition with a simple exercise plan to follow.” Customers who buy the product receive a tub that contains 3 weeks supply of the Formula 1 Healthy Meal shake, the Herbalife Protein Drink Mix and the Instant Herbal Beverage, as well as the Herbalife Aloe Concentrate Mango flavour.
Herbalife have also started running Marathon Challenges too, where groups come together to share a weight loss journey and hold each other accountable whilst competing to achieve their individual goals. Every day customers check in with each other and their coach in a group environment to support each other.
The Herbalife Diet is based on low-calorie meal replacement shakes and supplements designed to improve fat loss and aid weight loss through metabolism-boosting properties. The convenient, easy to follow diet will help most people achieve a healthier weight although it’s long-term success hasn’t been studied in great detail.
Overall, for sustainable weight loss, Herbalife offers an easy and convenient way to achieve a healthier weight and overall healthier lifestyle. However, it is always recommended that, where possible, a balanced diet that focuses on whole foods is always the more favourable option but where this is not readily available or convenient, the Herbalife Diet is the most suitable alternative.
