About Optifast® VLCD™

The Optifast^® VLCD™ program is so much more than just another 'diet'. It is a holistic approach to weight management, where you receive all of the information, advice and support you need in order to lose weight and improve your health, and most importantly, to educate you on how to make sustainable lifestyle changes that will help you keep the weight off long term.

The Optifast^® VLCD™ program is suitable for you if your BMI is >30, or if you have a BMI of >27 and also suffer from conditions such as Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnoea, high cholesterol and other health risks that are associated with excess weight. A waist circumference of greater than or equal to 102cm in men and greater than or equal to 88cm in women is associated with increased risk of metabolic complications and indicates you may be suitable for Optifast^® VLCD™.

Whilst on the Optifast^® VLCD™ program, it is important to take an additional 2 litres of calorie free fluid each day, preferably water, plus 2 cups of non-starchy green vegetables with a teaspoon of oil. Regular exercise increases your metabolic rate and enhances wellbeing making it an important component of the Optifast^® VLCD™ program.

Strawberry Milkshake

Smooth and delicious, this strawberry flavoured milkshake is high in fibre and is the perfect option for a refreshing and tasty shake. You may notice that it is a larger sachet size than the chocolate and vanilla shakes and that's because fibre has been added, so we can only fit 8 in a box.

Each pack contains 8 x 54g sachets.

To use: Simply add one sachet of Optifast^® to 200mL of cold water. Stir, blend or shake the liquid until the contents of the sachet are fully dissolved. Do not use boiling water. Add more water if you would prefer a larger shake or a more diluted taste. The colder the water, the better the taste! For those on the transition phase of Optifast^® (i.e. two serves of Optifast^® per day), you can enjoy a delicious and satisfying fruit smoothie, by adding one serve of fruit (e.g. 200g berries) and mixing in a blender.

Hot and satisfying savoury meals in two flavours.

Chocolate Dessert
Lemon Creme Dessert

Chocolate Desert

The Chocolate Dessert is high in fibre and has a low GI. It makes a nice change from the milkshakes. It takes a little bit longer to eat as it sets to a firm texture so you need to eat it with a spoon.

Each pack contains 8 x 46g sachets.

To use: Add one sachet of Optifast^® to 200mL of cold water and shake in your Optifast^® shaker. Leave to stand for 5 minutes in the fridge, or add an ice-cube to the shaker.
