Liquid Diet
Choosing Supplements for Weight Loss Liquid Diet
Low Carbohydrate Protein Powder is Meal Replacement Powder (MRP) that is most important supplement you have to buy. If you are going to drink 5-6 shakes per day based on whey protein and some fiber tablets, then in the few days you will ‘crush and burn’ – don’t do that to yourself. Depending on the time of the day, you should buy:
- protein powder based on micellar casein and calcium caseinate for daily and bed time shakes
- protein powder based on milk protein isolate and egg protein for breakfast and daily shakes
- protein powder based on whey protein, preferably hydrolyzed whey isolate or better for post workout meal (PWM) shakes
No matter how much you like for example chocolate flavor, buy different flavors powders – four weeks can be awfully long on 5-6 per day chocolate shakes. For breakfast and for daily shakes you can also buy MRPs that are blend of different protein sources. For bed time shake, casein based powder is by far the best choice.
For PWM you can have any kind of whey protein (even concentrate based), but when you are so low on calories, you are going to like the fact that muscle recovery with hydrolyzed whey starts much faster and insulin spike is much stronger – also be aware of this when planning first shake or meal after PWM.
Multivitamin and multimineral tablet – intake of fruits and veggies on liquid diet is very low (or even non-existent on some days), good multivitamin and multimineral tablets are vital for fat loss and general health. Read the labels and see how often you should drink these pills.
Vegetable supplements, usually called ‘Greens’, are good thing to take – it provides body with many micronutrients that liquid diet based on shakes lacks. If you combine ‘greens’ with multimineral and multivitamin supplements be careful about daily intake of vitamins soluble in fats. If you take too much vitamins soluble in water, all excess vitamins will be removed from the body through kidneys and urine. Fat soluble vitamins cannot be removed this or any other way – this warning is important regardless if you are on diet or not.
Dieting pill
– good fat burner pill is very important on low calorie diets. It will give you energy boost and accelerate fat burn. Also most of the fat burners today combine energy boost with appetite suppressant. Don’t take dieting pills that work as carbohydrate or fat blockers – you need all those nutrients that you consume. Only if you end up in situation that for some reason you simply MUST eat something caloric (you have crisis, family or business reasons etc), than taking some fat and carbohydrate blockers is acceptable – but don’t make eating such meals your regular routine. Guarana pills can be added to shakes – they will give you additional energy (they contain caffeine) and they can be much cheaper than ‘dedicated’ dieting pills.
EPA/DHA/CLA and other essential and non-essential fatty acids are very important for normal functioning of human body. Take good omega-3 supplement with as much EPA/DHA per 1g of fish oil (preferably more than 400mg per 1g of fish oil). CLA supplements are nowadays often mixed with omega-3 supplements – choose what most suites you. Fish oil in liquid form is great thing, just be aware of EPA/DHA content. If you are taking milled flax seeds as fiber source, than you are taking plenty of good fats with them – conversion to omega-3 vary from person to person, but omega-3 are not the only essential fatty acids that body needs. Lecithin can be found as powder (granules) and added directly to shakes.
BCAA supplement
in powder form should be added to shakes before workouts and to PWMs. If your money situation allows, add 5-6g of BCAA to almost every shake you drink. It can do wonders for keeping muscle on such low calories or even for gaining muscles. This can be expensive, but we are talking about relatively short period of 4 – 6 weeks.
Creatine supplements hydrate muscles and gives as additional strength and stamina – simplified, but close enough. If you never took creatine supplements you must be aware that you body mass will increase few kilograms in first few days because of additional muscle hydration. Should you start taking creatine supplements when going on liquid diet? Well, your fat loss will be unaffected by body weight increase – your muscle mass will increase. In fact, fat loss can be accelerated because of higher muscle mass. If your weight on scale is more important, then don’t start creatine supplementation right now.
Creatine should be taken in PWM (creatine monohydrate or creatine ethyl ester). On non-training days you should aim at taking creatine ethyl ester (or similar) supplements – to help creatine monohydrate to be delivered to muscle cells, one must take additional fast carbs to spike insulin – good after workout, bad during the rest of time. Creatine ethyl ester don’t requires insulin spike, so it should be preferred choice on non training days.
Nitric Oxides (NOx) are somewhat disputed supplements – they are taken before workout (15-30 minutes) on an empty stomach (don’t worry, it will be empty most of the time
) ). I can only confirm that this kind of supplements work, but you should ask or buy sample or small packages and try few of them, before buying larger container. And don’t expect miracles that supplement companies promise regarding NOx effects. But after all, if one supplement can make you do few more reps or same number of reps with increased weight – that is great, right?
Glutamine supplementation is one of the most disputed – if you have money, add 5-10g of glutamine to your bed time shake and to your PWM shake. Most of glutamine will be consumed by gastrointestinal tract, but some of glutamine may end up in your muscles. On calorie restricted diet every single thing helps.
Joint support supplements
can be taken, regardless of the diet. Just be aware of hidden calories in these supplements. Also, if you have problems with you joints, be sure to take plenty of omega-3 and good multimineral supplement.
Milled flax seeds are great source of fibers. They are also rich in good fats and even have some protein. Practically all of the carbohydrates are in the form of indigestible fibers, so even people on keto diet can use them to increase daily fiber intake. Trainees on Keto Liquid Diet had ketosis confirmed using ketone strips. Digestible carbohydrates in milled flax seeds with traces of carbs in other food (protein powders) didn’t bring them out of ketosis.
Fiber tablets are zero carbs sources of fibers that can be swallowed or even chewed. Be sure that they are ‘zero digestible carbs’ or if they have digestible carbs, check the amounts of carbs per serving.
This amount of supplements costs a lot. Since your grocery bill for these 4 weeks will be almost zero,
Weight Loss Liquid Diet
is not so expensive. After all, how much costs improved health and quality of life after losing 8-10 kg in 4 weeks of Liquid Diet or 10-12 kg in 6 weeks (Liquid Diet + one week transition ‘on’ and ‘off’ diet)?
