To help its customers stay on top of
their protein and nutrient intake and simplify access to the
critical nutrition support they need, Hims & Hers announced its
customers will now be able to have meal replacement bars and shakes
delivered directly to their doorstep, representing the brand's
latest commitment to taking care of its customers’ health
holistically. (Photo: Business Wire)
Hims & Hers is elevating its offering to supplement the
comprehensive, individualized weight management plans, designed by
doctors, that take every aspect of the customer’s health into
account. Licensed medical providers on the Hims & Hers platform
work with individuals to develop personalized plans that prioritize
every element that impacts their weight, including movement, sleep,
behavioral and psychological support, medication, and
nutrition.
Starting at $110 per month, Hims & Hers customers can have
convenient, nutrient-packed meal replacement bars and shakes
delivered right to their door through the Hims & Hers platform.
These delicious nutrition supplements from Hims & Hers,
developed by registered dietitians and nutritionists, are built to
complement each individual's weight loss plan, especially those
patients losing weight on GLP-1 medications. A subscription for
meal replacement bars or shakes includes nutritional guidance,
weekly meal plans, and recipes.
"For an individual’s weight loss goals, the most effective plans
are ones that are holistic and sustainable in nature," says Dr.
Jessica Shepherd, Chief Medical Officer for Hers. "Keeping up with
nutrition is critical to a sustained weight loss journey, but can
be difficult to stay on top of. Our priority is to support each of
our individual customers by making it easier for them to get the
comprehensive care they need."
Meal replacements are an important source of support for
individuals who are trying to lose weight. The protein-packed bars
and shakes can help customers feel fuller for longer and aid them
in achieving a more consistent, accurate calorie intake, while
getting enough high-quality protein and nutrients to maintain lean
muscle mass.
While meal replacement bars and shakes are meant to complement
an individual's balanced diet and not to be consumed as their only
nutritional intake, one clinical study showed that an individual
getting 60% of their daily energy intake from meal replacements had
the greatest beneficial effect on weight loss when compared to only
eating regular food.1
"Our meal replacements are designed to further strengthen the
plans available to our customers for reaching and maintaining their
weight loss goals," says Dr. Craig Primack, SVP, Weight Management
at Hims & Hers. "Making affordable nutritional support easily
available is one powerful way we can help people achieve a
healthier lifestyle."
