NutriSystem is
one of today’s most popular diet brands. Supporting the weight loss of millions
since 1972, NutriSystem makes it simple with their meal delivery service,
providing portion control, calorie control and a balance of healthy foods.
NutriSystem was one of the first to offer this convenient service, shipping a
month's worth of meals plus snacks and eliminating the need to grocery shop and
do prep work. Each meal is quickly heated and can be accompanied with fresh
produce of your choice. The NutriSystem meals abide by the glycemic index, are
low in fat, sodium, and calories and come pre-packed in the appropriate serving
size. The ratio of nutrients in NutriSystem meals is 55 percent carbohydrates,
25 percent healthy fats and 20 percent protein. Typically men will consume
1,500 calories each day and women 1,200 calories. No matter who you are, there
is a NutriSystem plan to suit your needs: Following are several programs from
which you can choose.
NutriSystem Advanced: These low-glycemic meals boast omega-3
fatty acids and natural fiber for added heart health and will help you feel
fuller for longer. These meals are also made of healthy carbs, low fat and
protein.
NutriSystem Select: Adhering to the basics of the NutriSystem
diet, you'll receive meals for three weeks that will include their new frozen
choices like ice cream or pizza.
NutriSystem Flex: This NutriSystem plan is more affordable,
providing five days of food each week instead of seven. You'll enjoy both the
convenience of pre-made, balanced meals as well as the ability to cook for
yourself or dine out.
NutriSystem Nourish: This puts the diet in your hands, as it's
a book the outlines a one-month program for preparing your own meals while following
the NutriSystem guidelines.
NutriSystem D: One of the newer NutriSystem programs, this is
designed just for those managing a diabetic diet.
NutriSystem Vegetarian: You'll enjoy satisfying healthy
proteins with a solely plant-based diet, as there are no meat menu options. NutriSystem for Men: For the men who need to lose a few pounds but want to enjoy their
favorites, this program satisfies their needs while following the balanced
NutriSystem program.
Nu-Kitchen Fresh: The newest program offering from NutriSystem
delivers fresh meals prepared by a chef. This approach is vastly different than
the frozen or shelf-stable foods available in the other program options.
No matter which program you choose, all ordering is conducted via NutriSystem's
website or by phone. The food is shipped monthly and arrives in shelf-stable
packaging that simply needs to be heated prior to consuming. You are encouraged
to make your own fresh fruit and vegetable purchases to add more flavor,
variety and nutritional value to the meals. NutriSystem primarily focuses on
the food aspect of weight loss, offering little support in the way of fitness
as well as exercise. Those following the NutriSystem Advanced plan will have
access to the workout DVDs. Outside of this, it is generally up to each client
to decide the fitness approach that is best for them.
For many people, simply tackling dietary choices can mean all the difference in
the world for their weight. With NutriSystem, it's easy to enjoy a variety of
meals that are nutritionally balanced, portion controlled, and within a
reasonable calorie budget.
