What is Take Shape for Life

Nearly 67% of U.S. Adults are overweight! Many of us start diets time and again, only to quit after limited, if any, success.

Weight loss need not be difficult. We don't need to feel deprived of foods we love. And weight loss does not have to be expensive; in fact, weight loss can save us not only pounds, it can save us money.

Do they contain harmful herbs or additives?  No.  Medifast Meals do not contain any added stimulants like Ephedra, or other herbs that might be harmful to your body.

Medifast Meals and Heart Disease

Medifast Meals qualify as Heart Healthy products by the FDA and "may reduce the risk of heart disease" (25 grams of soy protein a day, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease).  Obesity has been linked to many diseases, including:  Diabetes, Heart Disease, Stroke, Hypertension, Arthritis, and some forms of Cancer.
