Research supports meal replacements as one way to make weight management more structured. A 2019 systematic review by Astbury and colleagues included 23 studies with 7,884 adults. Programs incorporating meal replacements produced greater average weight loss at one year than the comparison programs included in the review.
For Complete Meals, the practical idea is a measured meal portion used within an overall eating routine. The studies examined different programs and levels of support; they were not a clinical trial of the current Best.me Shake Me and Bite Me routine.
The evidence does not guarantee that you will lose two or three times as much weight, that two shakes are best for every person, or that you will reach a particular goal by a set date. A PubMed listing or university logo also does not mean that institution endorses Best.me.
