The OPTIFAST Liquid Diet

About The OPTIFAST Liquid Diet

A Medically Safe Way of Losing Weight

As part of our comprehensive program we use an 800-calorie-per-day liquid product called OPTIFAST® – a more rapid, yet medically safe way of losing weight that gives a sense of accomplishment without compromising long-term weight loss. Additionally, most of our participants agree that the removal of food has allowed them to more fully understand and change their eating patterns.

OPTIFAST is a high-quality, nutritionally balanced, calorie-controlled liquid diet. The OPTIFAST program is a clinically proven weight loss program with documented outcomes in more than 80 studies.

Research has shown that the average weight loss in a full formula OPTIFAST program is 52 pounds. Participants have also seen an average of:

  • 15 percent decrease in cholesterol
  • 29 percent decrease in blood sugar
  • 10 percent decrease in blood pressure
