| Qualities |
|
Medifast uses a low glycemic formula in all their prepared foods. They claim that this factor can benefit individuals with type 2 diabetes, as well as individuals who don’t have this condition, because keeping blood sugar levels in balance can increase energy levels, balance mood, and reduce hunger. While on the Medifast plan individuals also eat one Lean & Green Meal a day, which is made up of salad or vegetables along with a five to seven ounce portion of a lean protein, which may include fish, pork, lamb, chicken, turkey, shellfish, or beef.
While on Medifast, protein is grilled, baked, or poached, but it’s never fried. The plan gives their members specific guidelines so they can stay on track with choosing their protein and greens. This meal can be eaten for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, but it can also be eaten in between meals, thereby giving users flexibility in their diet.
