Medifast Weight Loss
Is Medifast
safe?
Are there any stimulants in the Medifast Products?
Medifast has been clinically proven through a number of
controlled studies. More than 15,000 physicians nationwide have
recommended Medifast programs to their patients –
and more than one million customers have safely
used Medifast for over 25 years. For over 8 years, the Johns Hopkins Weight Management Center in
Baltimore, MD has chosen Medifast products for their very low
calorie diets. In clinical studies conducted by Johns Hopkins, males
lost an average of 67.41 lbs. and females lost an average of 47.5
lbs. after being on the Medifast program for 16 weeks. Researchers
concluded that the Medifast weight loss program provides a safe,
effective means of weight reduction and are accompanied by
significant improvements in coexisting health problems.
The Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public
Health studied the efficacy of Medifast Plus for Diabetics by
comparing Medifast to basic nutrition recommendations provided by
the American Diabetic Association. Results of the study show that
Type II Diabetics, using Medifast Plus for Diabetics, lost twice as
much weight as those following the ADA's recommended food guidelines
and were twice as likely to stick with the diet. Other improvements
in health included:
-
19% decrease in insulin
-
12% decrease in fasting triglycerides
-
10% decrease in blood glucose
-
27% increase in quality of life
-
9% increase in HDL
-
7.5% decrease in body fat
-
8% decrease in blood pressure
The results of the study confirm the proven weight loss success of
the Medifast Plus for Diabetics program.
There are any stimulants in the Medifast
Products. Medifast does not contain any stimulants, ephedrine, or other
herbs that might be harmful to your body.
