  1. What is Protein Powder?

    It has been developed to be a simple and effective way to increase one’s daily protein intake without adding any calories from fat or carbohydrates.


  2. Why should I consume protein?

    Proteins function in our body to repair body tissues muscles mass, and provide structure. They are components of hormones and the antibodies of the immune system. In addition, protein plays a critical role in metabolism. Protein, more specifically the building blocks of protein called amino acids, is an essential component of virtually every cell in the body.


  3. How much protein is required per day?

    The body’s needs for protein are dependent on a person’s lean body mass (LBM). A basic estimate is 75 grams of protein per day for an Asian woman of average height and weight, and 125 grams of protein per day for an Asian man of average height and weight. Athletes or very active individuals could add another 10%-20% of protein to their daily intake.


  4. What is soy protein isolate?

    Soy Protein Isolate is the purest form of protein extracted from soybeans. Soy provides a low fat, vegetarian source of protein.


  5. I’m already using Herbalife’s protein-based shake drink, why should I add more protein?

    • Protein is essential for every cell in the body. Many dieters cut back on protein in an effort to reduce calories and lose weight. When there is not enough protein available to the body for important repair and maintenance, the body takes protein from the muscles. Muscle mass must be preserved and enhanced to help the body burn calories and maintain a healthy metabolism. As the body loses weight, the objective is to maintain muscle mass. It is essential to make sure that adequate daily protein is consumed to assist the body in maintaining lean muscle mass.

    • Not all individuals require the same amount of protein. Herbalife developed a flavour-neutral protein powder containing healthy sources of soy and whey protein that dissolve instantly in a variety of liquids including shakes, sauces, soups and foods to the enhance the protein content of a meal. By adding 6 to 12 grams of Protein Powder to your Formula 1 shake, you can help to control hunger, maintain lean muscle mass while personalizing your individual protein intake. Protein Powder contains a blend of soy & whey protein.

    • Soy is slow-acting and whey is fast-acting. The blend of the two proteins is what makes this product so effective for all day hunger control.


  6. Who can consume Protein Powder (Children, adults, disabled people)?

    Anyone seeking to increase his or her protein intake.


  7. Can I use this product in my Formula 1 Shake?

    Definitely yes.


  8. What is the difference between Formula 1 and Protein Powder?

    • Formula 1, rich in vitamins and minerals, is a complete food product that can be consumed as a meal replacement.

    • Protein Powder is made from the highest quality protein and can be added to any food product to increase the amount of protein in the diet, but it is not a complete meal by itself. Protein Powder is a protein supplement, an easy way to increase protein intake without adding extra calories from fat or carbohydrates.


  9. What happens if my protein intake is more than required? Does it have any side effects or bad effects on the kidney?

    People with healthy kidneys have no difficulty in metabolizing protein. Vegetable protein, such as soy, is more completely absorbed and utilized than animal protein sources, such as meat. If used as directed, Protein Powder will not provide more protein than your body requires. Usage by individuals with kidney problems should be discussed with one’s personal physician to determine incorporation into current daily
    protein intake guidelines.


  10. Can I add Protein Powder to hot drinks made with boiling water, such as a soup mix?

    Protein Powder can be added to hot beverages, sauces, soups and gravies. Avoid cooking or boiling the powder as it could possibly change the structure of the protein and cause it to become lumpy.


  11. Can I add Protein Powder to hot or cold foods?

    Yes it mixes easily and does not add flavour. It can also be sprinkled on salads or vegetable dishes.


  12. If I’m in a hurry, can I add Protein Powder to water?

    Yes, you can mix it with any beverage, but remember that Protein Powder is not a meal replacement, but rather a pure protein boost to add to shakes, beverages or food.


  13. Is Protein Powder suitable for vegetarians?

    Yes it is suitable for lacto-ovo vegetarians who consume milk products. It contains soy and whey protein.


  14. How many servings are there in a canister?

    There are 40 servings in a canister.


  15. Does Protein Powder have a flavour?

    No. This product has a plain flavour. It does not add flavour to the foods and drinks to which it is added.


  16. I’m lactose intolerant. Can I use this product?

    Lactose is the sugar from milk. Protein Powder is pure protein and therefore does not contain any lactose.


  17. Can I continue to use all other Herbalife products whiles using Protein Powder?

    Absolutely.


  18. Does the powder have any GMO content?

    No. We use identity preserved soy protein isolate.


  19. Does the product have any contraindication?

    Only if you have a medical condition were you must limit your protein intake. If so, you would have to incorporate the use of this product into your current dietary guidelines for total daily protein intake.


  20. What are the nutritional benefits associated with using this product?

    It is a pure protein blend. Protein is essential for most bodily functions and important for maintaining muscle mass. It will help to manage your weight by maintaining optimum protein intake to help avoid hunger. Adding Protein Powder to your Formula 1 Shakes will reduce feelings of hunger, helping to decrease your tendency for snacking, making weight management easier. Athletes and active people can benefit from optimum protein intake for maintaining muscle mass.


  21. How much protein do I need per day? What is the usage recommendation for an Average Asian woman & man?

    The average Asian woman needs about 75 grams of protein per day and the average Asian man needs about 125 grams of protein per day.


  22. I am a body builder, how much protein do I need to take daily to maintain my muscle bulk?

    Although protein consumption varies by individual, a rough guideline might be 100 grams per day for women and 150 grams per day for men who are engaged in a regular body-building regimen.


  23. I do a lot of sports, do I need more protein than a normal person who doesn’t exercise much? How much more do I need?

    An athlete should add 10%-20% more protein to their daily protein intake than what is recommended for their lean body mass.


  24. Does an 80kg person need more protein than a 50kg person? How should I determine how much protein to take?

    Protein intake is dependent on a persons lean body mass. Since everyone comes in different shapes and sizes, a woman who weighs 80kg may have a different lean body mass than another woman who weighs the same amount, but is taller or shorter. In general, we recommend for an Asian woman of average height and weight to consume 75 grams of protein per day, and an Asian man of average height and weight to consume 125 grams. For people who have had their lean body mass measured, they would be able to obtain a more accurate estimate of their daily protein needs, which would be 2 grams of protein per kg of lean body mass per day.

Losing the Last 20 Pounds

Candace, age 36, was forty pounds heavier after giving birth to her third child than she had been before children. She lost the first twenty pounds after going on a series of different diets but she was not able to lose the last twenty pounds of 'baby weight' even though her youngest child was now four years old.

But after starting a regular exercise program she has succeeded in losing the last twenty pounds. She started by taking classes at the YMCA and by lifting weights but the pounds really started melting when she started running with a friend. It was really difficult to do the three mile run initially but she saw results quickly and this was very encouraging.

She's gone below her pre-pregnancy weight and now weighs 115 pounds at her height of 5'5". See her story and photo here.

Picking Myself Up Again...

I'm currently on food detox/withdrawal stage. It's soo is hard to overcome the fact that I have let myself into eating fatty foods everyday. It's challenging to the max and it's plain hard not being able to eat piles of carbos on each meal or drink milo frequently in a day!

Ah, the cycle just goes on. Why the heck can't I keep a good routine for the rest of my life? I must say life is filled with temptation and we humans have needs... undesired needs.... for foooood.

I am desperate to have a fit body but it's so hard to execute my plans. Pathetic really. It was mistake to let myself go 100% and eat all I wanted to when I went back to my parents place and it was only 4 days and 5 nights! A mistake I would never repeat again.
