The Body-for-Life program was originally built around EAS Myoplex shakes, and BestBodiesforLife (BBfL) now sells the modern, directly-branded successor to that original meal-replacement shake. We’ve covered both, plus the wider field of low-sugar, high-protein meal-replacement shakes that fit the same six-small-meals-a-day approach the program is built on.

The picks, in detail
BBfL Grass-Fed Whey Lifestyle Shake (Cocoa Cream)
The modern, directly Body-for-Life-branded shake — 21g of rBGH-free grass-fed whey protein plus a shot of apple cider vinegar, prebiotics, and digestive enzymes in each serving.
- 21g grass-fed whey protein per serving
- Apple cider vinegar + prebiotics + digestive enzymes blended in
- 15 servings per pouch
- Closest thing on the market to an official Body-for-Life shake today
- Low carb, low sugar, gluten-free formula
- Priced at a premium versus mainstream grocery-shelf brands
BBfL Plant-Based Protein Shake (Vanilla Bean)
The vegan version of BBfL’s Lifestyle Shake, built around 21g of plant protein with the same apple-cider-vinegar-and-prebiotics formula for anyone avoiding dairy.
- 21g vegan plant protein per serving
- Same apple cider vinegar + prebiotic blend as the whey version
- Non-GMO, gluten-free, soy-free
- Genuine dairy-free option from the same official brand
- Matches the whey version’s low-carb, low-sugar profile
- Fewer flavor options than the whey line
EAS Myoplex Original Meal Replacement Shake Mix
The historical Body-for-Life shake — EAS Myoplex is the brand the program was originally built around, still sold today as a 42g-protein powdered meal replacement.
- 42g protein per serving
- 23 vitamins and minerals
- 20-packet box, vanilla or chocolate
- The actual original Body-for-Life-associated shake, not just a similar product
- Highest protein count per serving on this list
- More calorie-dense than the newer low-carb options, so portion accordingly
Huel Black Edition
A high-protein, nutritionally complete meal-replacement powder with 40g of protein and 27 vitamins/minerals per 400-calorie serving — a full-meal option rather than a snack-sized shake.
- 40g protein, 400 calories per serving
- 27 vitamins and minerals for full-meal nutritional completeness
- Powder or ready-to-drink bottle format
- Designed to actually replace a full meal nutritionally, not just add protein
- Ready-to-drink option needs zero prep
- Higher-calorie than the lighter shakes on this list, so it’s a meal swap, not a snack
Ka’Chava
A whole-food-based meal-replacement blend built around superfoods and plant protein rather than a straightforward whey/protein-powder formula.
- 25g plant protein per serving
- 240 calories, 20g carbs, 6g fat per serving
- Superfood/whole-food blend positioning
- Popular pick for buyers wanting a whole-food-style ingredient list over a standard protein powder
- Subscription pricing brings the per-serving cost down
- One of the pricier options here at full (non-subscription) price
Orgain Organic Protein Meal Replacement
A widely stocked, budget-friendly organic plant-protein shake, easy to find at mainstream grocery and pharmacy chains rather than only online.
- 20g organic plant protein per serving
- 5g fiber per serving
- Organic certification
- Lowest per-serving price among the general-market options here
- Broad retail availability beyond just online ordering
- Lower protein-per-serving than the Myoplex or BBfL whey options
Premier Protein 30g Shake
A ready-to-drink 30g-protein shake at 160 calories, one of the best-known grab-and-go options for hitting a high protein target without much sugar or bulk.
- 30g protein, 160 calories per bottle
- No added sugar
- Sold individually or in multi-packs
- Strong protein-to-calorie ratio for a low-effort grab-and-go shake
- Extremely widely available at mainstream retailers
- Less of a full-meal nutritional profile than Huel or Ka’Chava — closer to a protein snack
SlimFast High Protein Shake
A long-running meal-replacement brand’s protein-forward line, a familiar and budget-friendly option for anyone who wants a straightforward grocery-shelf shake.
- High-protein formula (updated from SlimFast’s original lower-protein recipe)
- 11 fl oz ready-to-drink bottles
- Sold in 4-packs and larger multi-packs
- Cheapest ready-to-drink option on this list
- Available at essentially every major grocery and big-box retailer
- Historically associated with SlimFast’s older, lower-protein formula, so confirm you’re buying the High Protein line specifically
Buying tips
- If you’re following the actual Body-for-Life six-small-meals structure, prioritize protein-per-calorie over sheer calorie count — the shake is standing in for a lean-protein meal, not a full dinner.
- BBfL’s official shakes and EAS Myoplex both carry the program’s direct lineage; the general-market options (Huel, Ka’Chava, Orgain, Premier Protein, SlimFast) are legitimate substitutes if you just want the nutritional profile without the branding.
- Watch total daily sugar and carbs across whichever shake you pick — that’s the detail that varies most between these eight, from Huel’s higher-calorie full-meal format to Premier Protein’s low-carb snack format.
