If you’re looking to shift a few pounds, Herbalife products are a great way to help you achieve your weight loss goals in a convenient and easy-to-follow way. But with over 50 Herbalife products to choose from, which ones should you select for the best results? In this article, you will discover the 5 core Herbalife products which are perfect to start with on your weight loss journey.
1. Herbalife Formula 1 Shake
The Herbalife Formula 1 Shake has been the company’s flagship weight loss product for over 40 years now. With more than 4.8 million shakes served every single day worldwide, it’s definitely a product which shouldn’t be missing in your Herbalife plan. Formula 1 is a complete meal replacement and is designed to give your body all the micro and macronutrients it needs in a simple, tasty form. With just over 200 calories per serving and high protein content, it will help you create the caloric deficit you need to aid fat loss.
KEY BENEFITS
- Low calorie, high nutrient meal replacement shake
- Tasty, quick and filling - takes just 2 minutes to make
- Gluten-free and vegan
- Prepared with milk, milk alternative or Protein Drink Mix

2. Herbalife Protein Drink Mix
Consuming an optimal amount of protein daily* is a key element in a successful weight loss plan. Protein Drink Mix(PDM for short) is the product that will help you boost your protein intake with ease.
*For weight loss, aim for a daily protein intake between 1.6 and 2.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight.
As mentioned above, Formula 1 Shake can be prepared with milk, milk alternative or PDM. Making your shake with PDM is our preferred way as PDM contains less sugar and much more protein than milk. Plus it will give your shake a nice thick and creamy consistency. Another bonus is that you will be able to make your shake with just water = more convenient! Lastly, Protein Drink Mix can also be used on its own as a quick, high protein snack.
KEY BENEFITS
- Increases protein and lowers sugar of your Formula 1 shake
- 15g of protein per serving
- Just 0.3g of sugar and fat
- 7g of carbohydrates
- Can be made with water
- Also perfect as a high protein snack
3. Herbalife Thermojetics Instant Herbal Tea
The Herbalife Tea is another product we highly recommend adding to your Herbalife plan. It will not only give you a great energy boost, but it also promotes fat-burning by enhancing your metabolism. It’s great to have it when you wake up for that morning boost and/or after lunch when you feel the afternoon energy dip.

Simply add 3 capfuls of Aloe Mango to your tea which will give it a nice and sweet taste. Of course, you can also add your Aloe to just water if you prefer.

What’s the ideal Herbalife weight loss plan?
Now let’s quickly talk about how to actually use the above products within your diet to get the weight loss results you’re after. First of all, a lot of people think that Herbalife is a “shake diet” and that all you do is drinking shakes all day long. This is very far from the truth… This is the general structure of your Herbalife weight loss day:
HERBALIFE WEIGHT LOSS PLAN STRUCTURE
- Breakfast: Shake (F1+PDM) & Herbalife Tea with Aloe Mango
- Mid-morning: High protein snack
- Lunch: Shake (F1+PDM)
- Mid-afternoon: High protein snack + Herbalife Tea & Aloe Mango
- Dinner: Well-balanced meal + Oat Apple Fibre
Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout your day to keep hydrated. We also highly recommend committing to regular exercise at least 3-5 times per week.
As you can see, you will be eating 5 times a day so you will have plenty of food to keep you going! Plus 3 out of the 5 meals are regular foods so you definitely won’t be just drinking shakes. The real key to success is CONSISTENCY. Follow the plan to a T every day and you will see amazing results. We hope this quick guide helped you to get a better idea of which Herbalife products are great to start with. Some people begin with just two Formula 1 shake tubs, others go all out. It really depends on your budget but everyone can choose what suits them. We’re including our weight loss plans below for you to check out and if you have any further questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to our team which will be happy to help.
