A meal replacement is a dietary preparation based on the nutritional requirements of a standard human. Its aim is to replace a meal in a balanced way as part of a healthy, varied diet. Meal replacements can be found and consumed in a variety of formats, including meal bars, shakers and prepared drinks. These products are consumed not only to lose weight as part of a slimming diet, but also more simply to improve one's nutrition.

IN SUMMARY.

A meal replacement gives you all the nutritional requirements your body needs but in a convenient, non-traditional form and without the need to cook.

It will provide you with all the essential nutrients of a meal: protein, fat, fibre, carbohydrates and vitamins and minerals.

It's not specific to weight loss, but today there are meal replacements developed specifically for slimming. 

Meal powders, bars and drinks are not intended to be a complete substitute for traditional food. Rather, they provide a practical, balanced and timely nutritional solution. However, due to a lack of knowledge on the subject, the consumption of substitutes is the target of prejudice. Presented in a format that is atypical of the cuisine we are introduced to from childhood, meal replacements are often disparaged and never taken seriously in terms of the nutritional benefits they can provide. Many people do not consider these products as equivalent to a full meal, or even as an alternative to traditional food, but rather as a chemist's invention destined to replace our cultural habits, food for astronauts, or simply a weight-loss drug.
Yet meal replacements are a real complement to our traditional eating habits. Unlike weight-loss products, they are composed and designed to provide 100% of the nutritional requirements needed for the body of a standard human to function properly, and to be used as part of a balanced diet.
When you consider how essential a healthy diet is to good health, meal replacements become an asset in the way we eat on a daily basis. Especially in today's fast-paced society. It's not always easy to find the time and the means to do quality shopping, create a perfect menu every day, choose the right ingredients, know how to cook them, and finally establish an ideal program. Worse still, lack of time can lead us to skip meals, or to be too easily tempted by junk food, which is quick and efficient, but greasy and harmful to our health.

Nutrition is a subject central to our well-being that requires advice, but it remains complex and we are not sufficiently aware of it. With this in mind, integrating meal replacements on an occasional basis, as a complement to a healthy, balanced diet, can become a real ally beyond simply being of service.

There are many occasions when a well-balanced and practical meal bar is the perfect solution! 

• To save time in your day. 
• When travelling, on the train, bus, car or plane.
• When you don't feel like cooking or can't cook.
• To avoid queues to end up with a sandwich that nutritionally speaking is not interesting.
• To meet all your nutritional needs without having to think about it.
• To free up time to see loved ones or do a hobby.
• To take care of your diet when you have no other healthy meal option available.
• To increase your daily calorie intake if necessary.

Meal replacements have different objectives. They can save time, improve one's diet by avoiding skipping certain meals, or simply save money because of their low cost compared to a traditional meal.

• To save time and improve your diet

The rhythm of daily life has intensified in our societies in recent years, often at the expense of healthy eating. Because of a lack of time at work, during a lunch break, we are quickly tempted by a sandwich or prepared meals that are not necessarily healthy. Worse, the rhythm of daily life can lead to skipping meals. This is a habit that should be avoided to prevent harmful consequences for the body. The same goes for travel or time spent in the transport system, where we choose something simple and practical, but not necessarily healthy.
