What are the popular brands and products of meal replacement drinks?

Recently there have been a couple of startup meal kit services that provide ready to cook meal kits. iChef .in seems the most established brand in this line. Other competitors include Haute Chef, Chef's Basket, etc..

Meal replacement drinks (packets) don't need any special type of storing. You can store them anywhere in your house at room temperature. If you buy ready to drink ones, then you should put them in the refrigerator once you opened them (if you don't finish ofcourse).

Yes! There is one company that make organic ready to drink shakes. The company is called Orgain and it sells its drinks in chocolate and vanilla flavors. You can see more information about this product at their website: http://www.drinkorgain.com/.

Check these websites out. They offer a large variety of organic meal replacement drinks: http://www.soap.com/html/sg/organic-meal-replacement-drinks.html, http://www.thethriftymama.com/orgain-organic-meal-replacement-drinks-199.html, and http://www.amazon.com/Nutiva-HempShake-Chocolate-Superfood-Canisters/dp/B001ELLB4S.

My two favorite ready to drink meal replacements are the EAS Myoplex and the Met-Rx Original meal replacement drink. Both of these products I prefer the chocolate flavor. As far as nutrition goes, they are very similar:

• They both contain a high amount of protein (EAS contains 42 grams and Met-Rx contains 40 grams of protein).

• They contain similar amount of calories- EAS contains 310 calories, while Met-Rx contains 260 calories.

• They both contain 20 grams of carbs with only 2 grams of sugar.

• They both contain over 20 minerals and vitamins

• They both cost around $3 per drink.

Meal replacement drinks offer the following benefits:

• They contain a high amount of protein (around 40 grams), which is excellent for people who engage in high intensity activities (such as weight training).

• • They contain a low amount of calories, which is great for those looking for a low caloric alternative to whole food meal.
  
• • They are really easy to make.
  
• • They're much cheaper than going out to eat. They cost around $2 per packet.
  
• • They contain a large amount of minerals and vitamins.
  
• • Sometimes you are hungry but don't feel like taking 15-20 minutes to eat. Instead, you can quickly prepare a meal replacement drink and drink it in no time.
  

A meal replacement drink is a type of drink that has all the required nutrients to make it an appropriate replacement for whole food meal. Typically, these drinks are used in order to support weight loss programs or in order to maintain a healthy diet. In many cases, they have a higher protein to carb ratio, sometimes around twice as much protein than carbs (like with Whey Gold Meal and EAS Myoplex).
