The Science Bit!

Although many recognise they need to lose weight, it can be difficult to identify the most effective way. With so many myths, fads and fashions on the subject of dieting we thought it would be reassuring to provide some science (not too heavy) to prove why our diet works.

  To our knowledge we are the only UK diet company with a full time Medical Director. Here's what Dr David Ashton,
  BSc, MD, PhD, one of the UK's leading weight loss experts and creator of the Weight to Go diet, has to say about the
  science behind the diet.

"...the fact is that the only safe and predictable way to lose weight
 is through consuming fewer calories than you use"

 

"Studies show that meal replacements offer a highly effective, predictable and safe approach to weight loss. In fact, more than 3 times as much weight is lost and maintained using meal replacements compared with traditional diets. Through the years Weight to Go has helped thousands of people to not only lose weight quickly and safely but maintain their weight loss. Our healthy, low-calorie diet is based upon my own experience of managing patients, together with published scientific evidence from centres of excellence throughout the world and is designed to be as easy to follow as possible".

The diet includes the key components necessary for weight loss and weight maintenance:

  • Real food - the diet must be satisfying, easy to manage and, most important of all, taste good
  • Optimal macronutrient content - moderate carbohydrate (50%), low saturated fat (< 5%), high protein (20%)
  • A 'decision free' diet in which all meals are prepared and customer intervention is kept to a minimum
  • Low calorie, portion controlled - shown to produce up to 3 times the weight loss found with standard diets*
  • Regular physical activity - We recommend walking as the activity of choice for weight loss and maintenance

 

Clinical Trial Proves Weight to Go Works!

Over the past two decades I have seen every diet fad and fashion come and go. Many claiming radical breakthroughs and promising the earth, only to be disproved when clinical trials are completed. That's why we decided to put our own diet through its paces with an independent clinical trial. I am delighted to report that the trial results showed that Weight to Go delivers great weight loss with the average weight loss over 8 weeks at 16.5lbs". Read the full results here
