How is Factor4 better than slim fast or other diets?

Slim Fast® is a canned liquid drink designed to deliver a balanced diet with reduced fat.  However, the product delivers an excess of refined sugars (20 grams per 11 oz can) that will lead to increases in body weight unless the total number of calories are significantly reduced to levels less than 1500 Cal.  Under conditions of restricted daily calories, sugar-rich foods lead to intense hunger which impairs patient compliance.

Most diets work initially because they recommend a two week induction period whereby total daily calories are significantly reduced.  During this induction period, the body enters a catabolic state, which decreases muscle mass and body water.  Because muscle tissue is the most important organ for burning fat, such diets are counterproductive and short-lived.
