Total Solution - Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD)
Exante Diet Total Solution provides all your nutrition in 3 meal replacement products a day. Total Solution is a Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD), providing around 600 kcal (calories) a day, and is a safe, fast and effective way to lose weight quickly. VLCD’s have been around for quite a long time and have a proven track record for great weight loss results.
How Does Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD) Work?
When your body is only using fat to provide energy the term ketosis is often used. This just means that as your body is breaking down fat, substances called ketones are made, most of which are used by the body for energy and one (acetone) which the body gets rid of in blood, breath and urine. Some dieters like to know that they are burning fat efficiently by checking their urine for these ketones. They know that if they start to eat carbohydrate based foods their body will burn this instead of fat, and this may slow their weight loss results.
Who can use it?
All Very Low Calorie Diets, including Total Solution alter the way your body handles food, and this can be influenced if you have certain medical conditions or are using prescription drugs. So it is important to check that you can use Total Solution (Very Low Calorie Diet VLCD), by looking at our Medical Pages, and talking to your GP. You must have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of at least 25 to use Total Solution and not have any of the medical contra-indications listed.
Total Solution (Very Low Calorie Diet) is ideal for someone who has a lot of weight to lose who finds it very tempting to have food around whilst dieting.
What do I do?
 Have three products a day – Choose from VLCD shakes, soups, and bars.
The choice of product is up to you, some clients prefer shakes only and others prefer a mix of all products (but we recommend no more than one bar a day as part of your three meal replacements). Three products a day will give you 100% RDAs Drink between 2-4 litres of water a day, some of which can be flavoured with our drink mixes.
Don’t eat anything else
You can drink any green leaf tea or coffee without milk or sugar, however you can use tablet sweeteners.
Herb teas are fine as long as they don’t contain any fruit or citric acid flavouring (as this can take you out of ketosis)
Total Solution (Very Low Calorie Diet VLCD) can be used for up to 4 weeks, then you must take a Food Break Week.
