I'm sometimes asked to help people decide which medifast package would be best for them. Most people do realize and embrace the fact that the packages are much more cost effective. The cost per meal often comes down significantly if you buy a package and use the right coupons. Some people don't realize that there are quite a few packages available, including some that address very common health concerns. In the following article, I'll discuss some of the more popular medifast packages in the hopes that this information will help you to decide which might be the best option for you.
Medifast's Basic Women's Four Week Package (Which Is Also Available As A Two Week Option:) I would most certainly guess that this is the company's most popular package. This one gives you 143 of the most popular meals. Included are shakes, bars, oatmeal, eggs, soups, puddings, and cappuccinos. This gives you enough food to eat five times per day on the "five plus one" plan. This one is priced aggressively at $299 and they often allow you to use coupons as well. Also, this package is also available with 2 weeks' worth of food rather than 4. The price on the two week option is around $155.
The Women's Diabetes Package: I would guess that this is the second most popular package. I see this one discussed a lot of weight loss forums. Also, there's been some very positive clinical studies which showed quite impressive results for dieters with diabetes. Like the regular 4 week package, this one is also priced at $299 with 143 meals. You're also getting shakes, bars, soups, and soups. But you'll be getting fruit drinks instead of cappuccino. Basically, they omit the foods and flavors that contain a bit more carbs or sugars. The goal is to keep blood sugar levels steady and optimal.
The Medifast Gluten Free 4 And 2 Week Packages: I've been getting a lot of email about these. The company has recently bundled the foods that are gluten free and safe for those with celiac disease or digestion issues. This package includes "safe" and gluten free shakes, bars, eggs, puddings, soups, and hot drinks, as well as some specialty dark chocolate antioxidant shakes. This one is also available in 4 (priced at around $299) and 2 week (about $155) packages.
Enhanced Packages: They also have what is called an "enhanced" bundle which is a lot like the basic option except that they include a month's worth of super omega 3, the company's nutritional supplement to support overall health. Many people have told me that the supplements have made a difference in their hair, skin, and nails. There's also a diabetic enhanced option which is basically the regular diabetic plan along with the supplements. The 4 week option runs about $325.
I have to bring up that all of these options are available for men as well. The main difference is that the men typically get the 70 rather than the 55 shakes (which contain more protein.) And, it's pretty nice that there's no price difference between the women's and the men's options. Also, it's an advantage that you can often use coupons with the packages and this is usually not possible when you order the items individually.
