HMR Weight Loss Foods
What are HMR® weight-loss foods?
HMR weight-loss foods are healthy and delicious “fast” food. Our line of foods includes pre-packaged entrees (such as Lasagna with Meat Sauce and vegetarian Mushroom Risotto), shakes, puddings, soup, and nutrition bars. All HMR weight-loss foods are low-calorie, high nutrition and portioned-controlled to support your weight-loss goals. They are used in place of higher calorie foods, making it easier for you to lower caloric intake while maintaining good nutrition.

Why use meal replacements?
The research is very clear: diets that include pre-packaged, portion-controlled meal replacements – the foundation of HMR diets – are far more effective. In fact, a summary of over 50 studies and references shows that people lose and keep off approximately three times more weight on diets that use meal replacements when compared to other diets.

How do HMR meals compare with other prepared foods?
HMR weight-loss foods are made from the highest quality, natural ingredients. They are low in calories and highly nutritious. By contrast, most of today’s prepared foods and fast foods are high-calorie, high-fat, and often lacking in nutrition. It’s no coincidence that, in our convenience culture, most Americans are now overweight or obese. Today’s food environment makes it difficult to be thin and healthy! HMR weight-loss foods make it easy to prepare delicious, filling meals that support your weight and health goals.

What’s more, HMR products offer you the best nutrition and taste for the lowest calories.

Which HMR weight-loss shake is right for me?
All HMR Shakes are low-calorie, filling, and packed with nutrition. They are available in chocolate and vanilla, but can be combined with low-calorie add-ins to provide an unending variety of flavors. They mix up quickly for delicious thick shakes, fruit smoothies, mousses, puddings, and more! You’ll never be bored!
For most HMR newcomers, we recommend our HMR 120 shake mix, which is available in an economical canister. Vitamins are included in the mix, so you don’t need to take an extra vitamin tablet. (120 calories per serving.)
Our HMR 70 Plus Shake/pudding mix is lactose-free and versatile, letting you create shakes or puddings from the same mix. It comes packaged in convenient, pre-measured individual packets and includes HMR vitamin tablets. (110 calories per serving.)
HMR 500 is the original HMR Shake used in our medical weight-loss clinics. It comes packed in convenient, pre-measured individual packets and includes HMR vitamin tablets. (100 calories per serving.) HMR 800 is a slightly richer shake with slightly higher protein. It, too, is packed in individual packets and includes HMR vitamin tablets. (160 - 170 calories per serving.)

How many HMR® Shakes per day should I have?
Any number of HMR Shakes that you drink in place of other foods will help you cut calories. Generally, three or more shakes per day will be effective to help you lose weight. Research shows that the more you use, the more you will lose. However, you should not use HMR Shakes as your sole source of nutrition without medical supervision. Always consult your physician before beginning any diet.

How do I use HMR Entrees?
HMR Entrees are easy, delicious and heat up in about a minute! We recommend that you combine your HMR Entrees with 2 or more cups of vegetables (fresh, frozen or canned) for a quick, filling meal. Just one HMR Entree with vegetables instead of a typical lunch or dinner can save you a thousand calories or more and still have you feeling full.

Why don’t HMR Entrees have to be refrigerated?
HMR Entrees are heat sealed in a cooking process that kills bacteria and locks in freshness without artificial preservatives. This provides a long shelf life, while retaining natural juices and flavors. It also allows you to take your entrees wherever you go. Once opened, HMR Entrees should be refrigerated and eaten within two days.
How can I get ingredient information about HMR foods?
Complete ingredient information is available on the HMR website.

Are HMR foods high in carbs?
The amount and type of carbohydrates in HMR foods help people lose and maintain weight in a healthy way. Despite all the media attention on low-carb diets, research shows that people lose weight when they cut calories, not carbs. Low-fat diets that are rich in complex carbohydrates are the healthiest and most effective way to lose weight and become healthier. HMR products have a healthy amount of carbohydrates. They are also low in fat, which is important for weight loss, calorie reduction and better nutrition.

Are HMR foods kosher?
HMR Shakes and BeneFit® Bars are Kosher and are manufactured under the supervision of the Orthodox Union. HMR Entrees and HMR 500 Chicken Soup are not kosher. HMR products are not kosher for Passover.
