Meal Replacement Shake
What is Satiety Now Natural Meal Replacement?
What is Satiety Now Natural Meal Replacement?
Our Natural Meal Replacement is a propriety blend of natural products designed to naturally stimulate your body to produce GLP-1, the active ingredient in Ozempic, and thereby helps control hunger.
Does the Natural Meal Replacement replace my need for Ozempic, Mounjaro or Zepbound?
Does the Natural Meal Replacement replace my need for Ozempic, Mounjaro or Zepbound?
Definitely not. Our Natural Meal Replacement is a natural supplement or nutraceutical, it is not meant to replace a prescribed medication.
Can I use the meal replacement while I am on weight loss medications?
Can I use the meal replacement while I am on weight loss medications?
This is a natural meal replacement and can be used while on weight loss medications. Be careful though as this can really limit your calorie intake and create a situation where you are in such a calorie deficit that you start wasting muscle. If you use our Natural Meal Replacement and you are still eating other meals during the day, then that is acceptable.
How many times a day do I need to take the Satiety Now Natural Meal Replacement?
How many times a day do I need to take the Satiety Now Natural Meal Replacement?
The meal replacement shake is meant to be taken in the morning, but it can be taken anytime of the day, and you can use it more than once. Some people may find that they want to do a breakfast and lunch shake and then have a larger dinner. Provided you are getting adequate protein, nutrients, and calories this is an acceptable program.
The berberine and moringa capsules are meant to be taken three times a day before meals. The gymnema is meant to be taken directly before meals to take away the taste for sweets.
What are the side effects of the Satiety Now Natural Meal Replacement?
What are the side effects of the Satiety Now Natural Meal Replacement?
All the ingredients of our Natural Meal Replacement are completely natural and safe. Of course, some people could have an allergic reaction to any of the included ingredients.
Additionally, the meal replacement seeks to feed certain bacteria in your colon so that they stimulate GLP-1 production. This can create some bloating and gas, though that typically will get better with time. If you do develop bloating in the beginning my suggestion would be to cut your dose in half and slowly increase it overtime.
Also, we have included a type of fiber that has less association with gas, and we have combined cinnamon and ginger, which should help alleviate some of the gastrointestinal issues. Plus, these ingredients should definitely help with constipation, but everybody is different, and it is certainly possible that some people get bloating, constipation, and/or possibly even diarrhea.
What if I get bloated after using the meal replacement?
What if I get bloated after using the meal replacement?
Bloating can be possible in the beginning, especially if you are not used to fiber. If that happens, I recommend cutting the dose in half. Over time your body will adapt and you could slowly increase the dose. It may help to add probiotics. As your microbiome begins to change you should note that there is better tolerance.
What are the ingredients of the Satiety Now Natural Meal Replacement?
What are the ingredients of the Satiety Now Natural Meal Replacement?
This is a complex proprietary blend created by studying the science behind the natural release of GLP-1, the active ingredient in Ozempic, but the best way to answer this question is visiting our The Science Behind Satiety Now page, where you will find information about the different ingredients and why we chose to use them.
Do you guarantee that the product works?
Do you guarantee that the product works?
I wish that we could make this guarantee but that would be impossible. Everybody responds differently to different weight loss interventions. There are people who don't lose weight with weight loss surgery. There are certainly people that fail with the weight loss medications like Ozempic.
How do you know that Satiety Now actually works?
How do you know that Satiety Now actually works?
Each individual ingredient we use has individual scientific studies showing their efficacy. Keep in mind again that none of these results are dramatic in and of themselves, but we believe that combined they will work synergistically to help control hunger. There is good evidence that meal replacements do help with weight loss, and we feel that this specific meal replacement will do more than just replace a meal but also help control hunger during the day so that you eat less at other meals. We have tested this theory with several voluntary subjects and have had good results. We are planning a randomized placebo-controlled trial in the future.
Why is the berberine and moringa not added to the meal replacement? Why separate capsules?
Why is the berberine and moringa not added to the meal replacement? Why separate capsules?
Berberine can cause direct release of GLP-1 by stimulating bitter taste receptors in the body. Of course, that means that the berberine is bitter. Unfortunately, the addition of these additives to the shake would create a taste that would make it difficult to swallow. We also did not want to add all kinds of sweeteners to the product, which would be necessary if these were originally included. We do however feel that there is enough evidence to berberine’s benefit that we still wanted it to be part of the program.
Do I have to take the berberine and moringa or can I just do the replacement shake?
Do I have to take the berberine and moringa or can I just do the replacement shake?
You do not have to take the berberine or moringa supplement for the shake to work. These are added supplements that could enhance the effect.
How does the Satiety Now Natural Meal Replacement work?
How does the Satiety Now Natural Meal Replacement work?
This requires a fairly long answer. I would suggest you look at our The Science Behind Satiety Now page which goes into the science behind the active ingredient in Ozempic, GLP-1, and how to naturally stimulate GLP-1 secretion in our bodies.
How long do I have to take the product for? Will I regain weight if I quit?
How long do I have to take the product for? Will I regain weight if I quit?
This will vary from person to person and depends on how much weight you want to lose and how well you tolerate the product.
Evidence from the Ozempic trials show that removing the medication causes weight regain, but our product is different in that. We are building up a natural bacteria that should help you maintain an increased level of GLP-1 in your system and therefore it should continue to lower your hunger levels.
However, if you went back to a low fiber diet your microbiome can change and you could lose this effect. You may find overtime that you do not need to take it every day though for some people it may work best as a daily meal replacement.
The shake works for me in the morning but by late evening I am hungry again. What should I do?
The shake works for me in the morning but by late evening I am hungry again. What should I do?
Because we are using all natural ingredients, and because this is a low-calorie meal replacement, you could do the shake in the morning as a meal replacement and then do another shake in the afternoon as a snack.
What if I don't like the taste of the shakes?
What if I don't like the taste of the shakes?
We purposely did not add any flavoring to the shakes. Anytime you add flavoring you are basically either adding sugars or adding sugar substitutes and we wanted to keep this as natural a product as possible. You could simply add fruit and blend, or you can add flavoring and sweetener as you see fit. We tend to like the natural, subtle flavor but feel free to mix it with different milks and use different sweeteners. It does not have an overpowering taste and combines easily in smoothies.
Does the Satiety Now Meal Replacement contain peanuts?
Does the Satiety Now Meal Replacement contain peanuts?
Yes, Satiety Now Meal Replacement contains powdered peanuts as part of its formula. Peanuts, along with flaxseeds, work together with powdered spinach to support GLP-1 secretion. The monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats from peanuts and flaxseeds can bypass early digestion due to spinach’s enzyme-blocking effect, allowing them to reach the distal small intestine and stimulate GLP-1, which helps promote satiety and appetite control.
If you have a peanut allergy or any concerns regarding allergens, please consult your doctor before consuming this product.

By supporting this hormone, moringa helps regulate appetite, promote satiety, and assist in maintaining balanced blood sugar levels.
