Almased Synergy Diet Program

The Almased Synergy Diet Program is a meal replacement protein shake regimen containing soy protein, skim milk yogurt powder, honey enzymes and amino acids. It does not contain stimulants, chemical additives or artificial ingredients. The regimen contains 1300 calories per day, which is a decrease of more than 500 calories from the average requirements for nutrition and energy. Almased is sold as a powder in 500 g cans for $34.95.

Soy protein is generally though to be healthy. This product is an expensive alternative to other popular protein shakes. Any diet or weight loss program that has you only consuming 1300 calories per day is going to lead to weight loss. This program is a starvation diet, as are most very low calorie diets. The product itself is probably fine, but trying to stick to 1300 calories per day is going to be really difficult in the long-term and usually leads to rapid re-weight gain at the end of the weight loss phase.

It's probably a whole lot better to be less aggressive in your calorie deprivation and add daily exercise to your life.
