The Vita Diet weight loss program works by controlling the amount of carbohydrates, proteins and fats a person consumes each day. With the aim of getting the body to start using its own body fat as a source of energy, resulting in weight loss. This is achieved by using any of the gluten free Vita Diet Shakes, Soups, Bars or Desserts to replace two meals per day, usually breakfast or lunch, and a third meal can be made from the Vita Diet food allowance list which includes proteins, unlimited vegetables and much more. The Vita Diet program is designed to be easy to follow with the 5 daily steps and unlimited snacking list.
