Shakes are available for joint health, coronary health and women’s health. </p> <p>These shakes can be used as part of the Medifast 5 & 1 plan in place of any other 3 Medifast meals, or, they can be consumed as part of a regular diet as a snack or meal up to 3 times a day. Enjoying a specific shake 3 times a day will optimize the value of its special nutrients. </p> <p>Joint Health</p> <p>Medifast Plus for Joint Health is a specialty designed meal replacement shake formulated to relieve the painful symptoms and damage associated with arthritis. Each shakes is formulated with 500 mg of glucosamin and 500 mg of chondroitin</p> <p>Clinical data and industry research suggests that:</p> <ul> <li>Glucosamine found naturally in the body is a form of an amino sugar and is a nutritional supplement that is extracted from crab, lobster, or shrimp shells. It may help regenerate the cushioning components of joint and other tissues. Evidence shows that this natural form of amino sugar makes joints more elastic, increases range of motion, and often slows or even reverses joint damage.</li> <li>Chondroitin acting like a collection of magnets to attract fluids into proteoglycan molecules is important to your body because the fluid sweeps nutrients into your cartilage and the fluid acts as a spongy shock absorber. It may help draw more moisture into cartilage to provide support and protection against further destruction of the joint.</li> </ul> <p>Coronary Heart Health</p> <p>Medifast Plus for Coronary Health Shakes were developed specifically for people who are at risk of developing heart disease. However, these shakes are not recommended for anyone with diabetes.</p> <p>Each Coronary Health Shakes contains:</p> <ul> <li>14gm of protein per serving, 9 of which are from soy. The FDA has issued the statement that “a diet containing at least 25gms of soy protein per day and low in saturated fat will decrease the risk of heart disease.</li> <li>amino acids clinically shown to reduce fatty build up in the heart and liver.</li> <li>2000mcg of Coenzyme Q10, which has been shown to reduce the incidence of plaque formation and rupture.</li> <li>2000mcg of Pycnogenol, which has been shown to act as the body’s first line of defense against heart disease and as a powerful antioxidant. </li> </ul> <p>Coronary Heart Disease is a major health problem in the United States, with almost 2 million Americans suffering heart attacks each year, Clinical studies have shown that with proper diet and exercise the risk of heart disease drops dramatically. Coronary Heart Disease is when the coronary arteries become narrowed or blocked and cannot supply sufficient blood to the heart. If not enough oxygen-carrying blood reaches the heart, the heart may respond with pain called angina. </p> <p>Women’s Health</p> <p>Medifast Plus for Women’s Health shakes are designed to relieve some of the unpleasant symptoms of menopause. These shakes are supplemented with traditional herbal remedies such as black cohosh, Echinacea and chaste tree berry thereby providing a natural alternative to hormone replacement therapy.</p> </div> </td> <td rowspan="2" valign="top" width="170" class="navbarbgc">  <div id="rightsidebar"> <br /> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; background-color:#EAE6DA" width="170" bordercolor="#000000"> <tr> <td style="background-color: #EAE6DA; background-image:url('../images/layout/bookmark_bak.gif')"> <a href="javascript:bookmarksite('Medifast Tucson - Fast and Effective Weight Loss', 'http://www.medifasttucson.com')"> <img border="0" src="../images/layout/bookmark_bttn.gif" width="170" height="24"></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td style="background-color: #EAE6DA; background-image:url('../images/layout/phone_bak.gif')"> <img border="0" src="../images/layout/phone_bttn.gif" width="170" height="24"></td> </tr> <tr> <td style="background-color: #EAE6DA; background-image:url('../images/layout/order_bak.gif')"> <a target="_blank" href="http://medifasttucson.tsfl.com/"> <img border="0" src="../images/layout/order_bttn.gif" width="170" height="22"></a></td> </tr> </table> <p class="singlesidebar"><br>  </p> <p class="sidebarpromotitle"> Current Health News </p> <p class="singlesidebar"> </p> <p class="singlesidebar"><strong><a href="http://www.cnn.com/2004/HEALTH/diet.fitness/03/12/obesity.campaign/index.html" target="_blank">White House takes aim at obesity (CNN)</a></strong><br /> The Bush administration has announced a campaign to combat obesity through improved product labels, health education, and a partnership with restaurants.<br /> <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2004/HEALTH/diet.fitness/03/12/obesity.campaign/index.html" target="_blank">Read the full story... </a></p> <p class="singlesidebar"> </p> <p class="sidebarpromotitle">Success Story<br /> of the Month </p> <p class="singlesidebar"> </p> <p class="singlesidebar"><strong>Sandra E.—Florida</strong></p> <p >Dear Dr. Manny and Staff,</p> <p >I thought you would like an update on my progress.
