Does NutriSystem Work for weight loss? Is it Healthy?
Government recommendations include suggestions for eating and exercise habits that maintain healthy
weight with lowering the risk of weight-related illnesses. In fact, NutriSystem reviews and testimonials confirm that our meal plans both meet and
exceed these guidelines.
The NS plan contains less than the USDA recommended sodium intake. USDA guidelines recommend 10% of
calories from trans and saturated fats. NS plans have less than 5%. USDA and NS promote selecting lean,
low-fat and non-meat fats. USDA report stresses that
half of daily carbohydrate servings should be in the
form of whole grains and the other half from enriched or whole wheat sources.

This is exactly what the NutriSystem programs recommend. Both USDA and NS recommend 4 and half
cups of fruit and vegetables a day.
The findings have prompted Mary Gregg, head dietitian at NutriSystem to remark that USDA scientific
consensus confirms Nutri System's commitment to offering a balanced, low fat and good carbohydrate diet.
"People shouldn't just count carbs or limit their diet to certain food groups", she says. "It's really all about
balance. These new standards stress eating the right amount of a wide variety of healthy foods, which falls
directly in line with our philosophy here at NutriSystem."
The USDA report also highlights the importance of getting 60 minutes a day of exercise. This dovetails nicely
with Nutri System's emphasis on leading an active lifestyle that incorporates regular daily exercise to aid the
fat-burning capacity of the body.
We offer programs for both men and women that conform to their respective unique physiologies. Vegetarians
and Type II diabetics also benefit from NutriSystem's specially formulated programs.
