The Herbalife 21-Day Challenge Explained: What’s Included and How It Works

The Herbalife 21-Day Challenge is one of the most popular ways to start with Herbalife. It gives you a clear routine for three weeks, built around Herbalife’s core products – plus support from your coach.

What’s included?

  • Formula 1 Healthy Meal – a meal replacement shake
  • Instant Herbal Beverage – a low-calorie tea-based drink
  • Protein Drink Mix – to add extra protein to your shake
  • Herbal Aloe Concentrate – a refreshing aloe drink to help you drink more water

What does a typical day look like?

  • Breakfast: Formula 1 shake with Protein Drink Mix, made with semi-skimmed milk
  • Mid-morning: Herbal Aloe in water and a cup of Instant Herbal Beverage
  • Lunch: a second Formula 1 shake or a balanced meal
  • Snack: fruit, yoghurt or a protein snack
  • Dinner: a balanced meal with lean protein, vegetables and wholegrains

Your coach will help you adjust this around your routine, preferences and goals.

Is the 21-Day Challenge good for weight loss?

Substituting two daily meals of an energy-restricted diet with meal replacements contributes to weight loss. Substituting one daily meal contributes to maintaining weight after weight loss. Results vary from person to person and depend on your overall diet and activity.

5 tips for a successful challenge

  1. Plan your week – decide when you’ll have your shakes and prep your meals.
  2. Drink plenty of water – aim for around 2 litres a day.
  3. Move every day – a brisk 20–30 minute walk counts.
  4. Track how you feel – energy, sleep and habits, not just the scales.
  5. Check in with your coach – support makes consistency easier.

Who shouldn’t start without advice?

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, under 18, taking medication or have a medical condition, speak to your GP before changing your diet.
