Purpose/Usage
Very Low Energy Diet: Replace all meals with three sachets (54g) per day. Additionally, 2L or calorie free fluids and 2 cups of low starch, green vegetables should be consumed.

Precautions
Very low calorie diets (VLCD's) should only be used where rapid weight loss is essential to health and wellbeing as recommended and supervised by medical professionals experienced in the use of modified fasting. Take an additional 2 litres of calorie-free fluid each day. Unsuitable for use by pregnant or nursing women, infants and children, adolescents and elderly.

More Information
1. Intensive Phase
During this initial phase, Optifast replaces ALL meals and must be taken in combination with 2 cups of low-starch, green vegetables and 2 litres of water per day.

2. Transition Phase
In this phase, Optifast replaces just TWO meals a day. One low-calorie meal (approximately 500 Calories) is introduced, in combination with 2 cups of low-starch, vegetables and 2 litres of water per day. One serving of fruit can also be included (see list of Allowed Foods).

3. Maintenance Phase
Once this phase is reached, Optifast replaces just ONE meal a day - in combination with 2 low calorie meals, 2 cups of low-starch vegetables and 2 litres of water per day.

4. Stabilisation Phase
Once weight loss goals have been achieved, you should be at a stage where you no longer require Optifast and you are eating healthy, low calorie meals. However, it is vital to maintain weight loss by ensuring calorie intake is restricted to less than about 1500 calories per day. Your health professional may advise you to use Optifast intermittently if you go above your healthy goal weight.
