Making a Great Shake
Make the perfect shake every time!
About Formula 1
The Formula 1 Shake healthy meal replacement shake is Herbalife's flagship product. It comes in the form of a nutritional shake providing most of the nutrients, protein and complex carbohydrates, with a low calorie count to assist weight control.
When combined with Formula 2, Fibre and Herb, and Formula 3 (to personalise your protein intake), you have everything you could want from a perfect healthy meal.
Because Formula 1 provides energy through complex carbohydrates and protein, it can keep your body sustained for longer, and doesn't cause the blood sugar 'spike and crash' that often leads to hunger pangs and snacking on less-than-ideal foods.
The Formula 1 shake mixture is incredibly versatile and can be mixed in almost anything. It is available in six different flavours in either single-serving sachets, or canisters containing about 30 servings.
Creamy shakes
Mix 2 scoops or 1 sachet of Formula 1 in 250ml of semi-skimmed to make a creamy and filling meal full of protein than can keep you going for longer. All Formula 1 flavours mix well in milk, especially Chocolate, Cookies and Cream and Cappuccino. Some people find Vanilla slightly bland in milk alone, so it is best mixed in fruit juice.
Soya milk is a healthier alternative to regular cow's milk, and doesn't cause the stomach problems many people have when they aren't used to drinking cow's milk in large amounts.
Fruity shakes
Mix 2 scoops or 1 sachet of Formula 1 in 250ml of fruit juice (or half fruit juice and half milk) to make a refreshing healthy meal, especially ideal for sports people before or immediately after an event.
Vanilla, Strawberry and Tropical Fruit (banana) make the best fruit-flavoured shakes, but don't be afraid to experiment!
Mixing the shake
Blenders
Blenders are the perfect way to mix your shake. Leave it running slightly longer than necessary as this thickens up the mixture. If you're using a blender, adding some fresh fruit is tasty way to reach your 'five a day'.
Blending Cookies and Cream flavour destroys the crunchy cookie pieces (though some people prefer this anyway).
We strongly recommend Hinari Genie Bullet Blenders to anyone making shakes regularly. You can make individual shakes without extra washing up, as you blend the shake straight into the cup!
Shakers
If you don't have a blender or you're out and about, you can use one of our Herbalife Super Shakers. Shake for 30 seconds, ideally leave to stand for about ten minutes, and give it another quick shake before drinking. This will really thicken the shake.
...or try something different
- Add the shake mix to yoghurt to create a filling and nutritious treat (cookies and cream flavour is great!).
- Add the shake mix to porridge oats with milk (after allowing them to cool) to provide a more sustaining meal when taking part in endurance or team sports.
