Chocolate Meal Replacement Shake

Dr.Ann Chocolate Meal Shake is made with halal ingredients, which is what the Halal Ingredient mark on the pack refers to. It is manufactured in Taiwan under HACCP, FSSC 22000, ISO 22000:2018 and GMP certified standards.

Three key differences. It is built to taste like a chocolate dessert rather than diet food, with real cocoa and crunchy instant-rice bites for texture. It is a complete meal at 116 kcal per 30g sachet, not a protein supplement taken on top of meals. And 12g of complete soy protein with 2g of SoFiber™ prebiotic fibre holds hunger for hours, which is where low-calorie snacks and diet bars fail.

The behavioural change comes first, usually within the first one to two weeks — the 4pm craving eases and the late-night supper run stops. Weight change depends on overall calorie balance and on how consistently the shake replaces a meal. Dr.Ann does not publish a weight-loss timeline, as results vary from person to person.

One 30g sachet a day, mixed into 250–300ml of water, milk or soymilk, and shaken well. Replace one meal — lunch works best for most people. Each box holds 15 sachets, which is about two weeks at one a day.

Yes. Replacing one regular meal with a 116 kcal shake already creates a calorie deficit for most people, as a tapau economy rice alone can run 600 to 800 kcal. The remaining meals of the day may be eaten as usual.

Dr.Ann Chocolate Meal Shake is generally well tolerated. Anyone on medication, or managing a condition such as diabetes, should speak to a doctor before replacing meals.

Yes, the ingredients are pregnancy and breastfeeding safe.

Yes. Each sachet delivers 12g of complete soy protein and 2g of SoFiber™ prebiotic fibre, the two components that slow digestion and keep hunger steady between meals. Mixing it with milk or soymilk rather than water adds further staying power, though it also adds calories. However, anyone with a physically demanding job or a high daily calorie requirement may still need a small snack in between.

The protein is plant-based soy, so the shake suits lacto-vegetarians, but it contains milk powder and is not suitable for vegans. It is not allergen-free: it contains soybeans and milk, including lactose. It is not suitable for anyone with a soy or dairy allergy, or for anyone who is lactose intolerant.

Keep the sachets in a cool, dry place and out of direct sunlight. Do not store them in humid spots such as a bathroom or beside a kettle, as moisture causes the powder to clump. Once a sachet is opened it should be mixed and drunk, not kept for later.
