Celebrity slim shakes are a meal replacement diet program which replaces
2 of your regular daily meals with a nutritional shake. Similar to the popular
Slim Fast brand, Celebrity Slim features additional ingredients which boost fat
loss, such as green tea extract and whey protein. Acording to their official
website it caters for both men and women, has gained worldwide recognition, and
has over many dieters with it’s no nonsense approach to weight loss.
How do Celebrity Slim shakes work?
The main focus behind Celebrity Slim
shakes is reducing carbohydrate intake and raising the amount of protein
consumption.
A person’s typical 2-3 meals-per-day is dropped in favour of 5-6 small
meals, with breakfast and lunch being replaced by a Celebrity Slim shake.
Dinner stays unaffected by the diet plan, but should be based on a healthy and
nutritionally balanced meal. Celebrity slim approved snacks are permitted
mid-morning, mid-afternoon and supper, and should consist of half a portion of
fruit or small handful of nuts.
Ingredients in
Celebrity Slim Shakes
According to the makers each Celebrity Slim Shake sachet contains a
nutritionally balanced combination of protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins,
minerals and soluble fibre, to sustain your energy while you lose weight. They
also contain several important nutrients that can help accelerate weight loss
and improve your health such as:
- Green tea extract, which is rich in antioxidants, has been shown to accelerate natural fat burning, resulting in quicker weight loss.
- Dairy Calcium, a source of calcium and minerals extracted from milk, has been shown in several studies to stimulate fat loss.
- Caseinate, a dairy protein rich in amino acids, provides you with a feeling of fullness to help control your appetite.
- Whey Protein Concentrate provides high levels of certain amino acids which have been shown to assist in weight loss. It is also a rich source of easily digested proteins and immune enhancing nutrients to boost your health and immunity.
- Soy Protein Isolate contains specific plant nutrients, known as Isoflavones, that help regulate many body processes to keep hormone and energy systems in balance.
What about
calories?
The Celebrity Slim shake programme is designed so that you don't really
need to count calories. By following their simple guidelines, it is suggested
that you'll not only cut back the amount of carbohydrates you eat, but in most
cases you'll reduce your overall daily calorie consumption.
Remember
No side effects have been reported, and the diet plan is widely regarded
as a safe when followed correctly. However don’t use Celebrity Slim Program if
you have any medical conditions or are taking any medication. It is also not
suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women or children under 16 years of age.
Our View
Put simply, at €42.99 for 10 shakes this is an expensive diet to be on
compared to similar products such as Slim Fast which offer a similar diet plan
for around half the price. Slim fast is also a more established dieting brand
and doesn’t rely on promoting itself with a shiny wrapper like this product.
What we do like however is its online programme to encourage weight loss, its
range of products which can replace the shakes if you get bored with them
(Bars, soups etc.), its healthy recipes to use these products in; and of course
the fact that their online support does promote increasing physical activity
levels at every opportunity. So maybe if Slimfast is not your ‘thing’ this could
be worth a try.
