UltraMeal Plus is a medical food formulated with a proprietary soy protein and plant sterol blend to nutritionally support the management of conditions associated with metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease, such as:
UltraMeal Plus - along with a low-glycemic-index dietary program and regular exercisehas been clinically tested and shown to improve important markers of cardiovascular health and support a healthy body composition (a healthy ratio of lean muscle mass to fat mass).
Is there caffeine in the chocolate UltraMeal products?
Yes, there is ~20 mg of caffeine per serving. To put that in perspective, a cup of brewed coffee generally contains 150 mg of caffeine, so the amount of caffeine in UltraMeal products are probably too low to significantly affect most people.
What is unique about UltraMeal?
Clinically tested UltraMeal is a nutrient-dense medical food made of specifically selected proteins, carbohydrates, and fats that, as part of a balanced dietary and regular exercise program, has been clinically shown to help reduce fat while preserving lean muscle mass. Different UltraMeal medical food formulas are designed for targeted condition management.UltraMeal also offers great variety for your palate and lifestyle. UltraMeal comes in a variety of delicious powdered soy flavors, rice and whey protein options, and bars. UltraMeal uses only the highest quality ingredients. UltraMeal soy formula provides non-genetically engineered, identity-preserved soy protein isolate containing a significant amount of soy isoflavones. The carbohydrate sources in UltraMeal are a mixture of complex starches from rice, pea, and potato, and simple carbohydrates from low-glycemic-acting fructose (fruit sugar). Olive oil is included as a healthy fat source with its beneficial monounsaturated fatty acids. UltraMeal is additionally fortified with a vitamin and mineral core and provides 35% or more of the RDI (Recommended Daily Intake) levels of all vitamins and minerals (except iron and potassium). It is a particularly rich source of non-dairy calcium for improving bone health. And no UltraMeal products are formulated with artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, yeast, egg, or gluten. The products can be used as a balanced meal option or as a healthy snack and the powders mix easily with water.
Can I use salt while on this program?
We suggest you use salt sparingly or not at all. If you have been advised to restrict your salt intake, look for salt-free products whenever canned or processed foods are used in the diet. There are many good salt-free seasonings available at your local health food store.What additional spices or flavorings can I use?
Seasonings can enhance the natural flavors of food without added butter, margarine, or salt. There is an abundant array of other herbs and spices that can add flavor and variety to foods. They have practically no calories and can be used in endless combinations. Ask your health care provider for suggestions or experiment yourself with the list of herbs and spices we have provided on the shopping list.
Can I drink coffee and tea?
This is a decision best left up to you and your health care practitioner. We generally recommend consuming water-processed decaffeinated coffee or decaffeinated tea. Many herbal teas are naturally decaffeinated and can add variety and flavor as well.
Can I drink diet drinks?
While diet sodas contain no calories, they often leave people desiring other sweet snacks because of their sweet taste. Additionally, there is some research that suggests the artificial sweetener aspartame may be associated with some health problems. We therefore do not recommend diet drinks, although that decision is best left to your health care practitioner. We do recommend you consume 6-8 glasses of water a day. Low-sodium seltzer or mineral water may also be used.
Can I use canned vegetables instead of fresh vegetables with this program?
Fresh and frozen vegetables retain more of their vitamins and generally have little added salt. If these are unavailable, try to purchase canned vegetables that don't have added salt or fat.
Can I swap menus from one day to the next?
Yes, by all means. The menus are meant as a guide for the kinds of dishes you may be consuming. Keep in mind that some of the menu plans are designed for the 1400-calorie dietary program and some for the 1000-calorie dietary program. Choose from the appropriate menu for the program you and your health care practitioner have decided upon.
Should I exercise while on this plan?
Yes. Exercise is an appetite suppressant, and it also accelerates the burning of calories. Besides acting as an aid in weight stabilization, aerobic exercise will improve cardiovascular and pulmonary fitness. Your exercise program can be as simple as 30 minutes of walking 3 times a week. (This level of exercise led to improved muscle mass in our UltraMeal research studies.)
Is the Program an appropriate for children?
No. UltraMeal products should not be the sole source of nutrition for infants or children under age 12. UltraMeal's nutritional content is based on the adult RDIs, and no testing in children has been done at this time. Under the supervision of a health care practitioner, however, the program may be appropriate for older children or adolescents, although it may be advisable to start the program at the second week when they would use UltraMeal twice daily. Your health care practitioner must help you decide if and how the product may be used with your child.
Can I use this diet if I am pregnant or nursing?
No. UltraMeal products have not been tested in these situations; therefore, it is not recommended for use at these times.
Can I take supplements during this program?
Yes, although the UltraMeal Program is designed to provide at least 100% of the RDI for all vitamins. Follow your practitioner's recommendations.
How much UltraMeal will I need in order to complete 4 weeks of the program?
For 4 weeks on the UltraMeal Program, you will need to purchase 5 canisters of powder or 7 boxes of the bars. After that, 1 canister or box will last 1 to 2 weeks depending on whether you use the product once or twice daily.
What are some of the benefits of UltraMeal products?
UltraMeal has been clinically tested as part of a balanced dietary and regular exercise program and shown to reduce body fat while preserving lean muscle mass. The typical over-the-counter product is an extremely sweet drink or bar with generally small amounts of poor quality proteins. UltraMeal has 15 or more grams of protein per serving. Lower protein products may result in loss of lean muscle mass in body composition programs. Also, the main ingredient in many over-the-counter products is plain table sugar or sucrose. There is no added sucrose in UltraMeal products. UltraMeal contains the low-glycemic index carbohydrate fructose (fruit sugar) as part of the macronutrient blend. Fructose does not cause the rise in blood sugar that sucrose can. Third, unlike many over-the-counter products, UltraMeal varieties are fortified with a complete vitamin and mineral core supplying valuable sources of all these important nutrients. It is a particularly rich source of non-dairy calcium for improving bone health. Fourth, unlike many other products, UltraMeal shake formulas are formulated to exclude yeast, eggs, hydrogenated oils, sucrose, or gluten. The UltraMeal Bar contains a very similar ratio of vitamins, minerals, proteins, carbohydrates, and fat to the UltraMeal soy powdered drink mix. Blend, shake, or briskly stir two level scoops into eight ounces of chilled water twice daily, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
