Nutrisystem, Inc. Launches New Weight Loss Program

NutriSystem, Inc. announced the launch of a new dietary program called "NutriSystem Advanced." Based on the latest research in dietary science, the program features newly patented ingredient blends formulated specifically for the support of heart health. The new system replaces "NutriSystem Nourish," the company's previous main weight-loss product.

A new key change included in the NutriSystem Advanced product features the addition of ingredients that act to both promote cardiovascular health as well as satisfy appetite, which include soluable fibers and Omega-3 fatty acids, overall making for the most comprehensive wellness initiative yet for the company.

Another key feature of the new product is the addition of twelve new types of meals. All of these new meals will feature one of the new patented ingredient blends. One of the new blends is OmegaSol, which is a combination of soluble fibers and Omega-3 fatty acids, which serves to promote a healthy heart, while NutriSol is a blend of soluble fibers that are naturally found in oats, fruits and whole grains, which serves to control appetite. Additionally, all of these meals will continue to follow NutriSystem's "Glycemic Advantage" through the company's limitation of carbohydrates to only "good carbs."

In addition, the NutriSystem Advanced program has been designed to accommodate to a variety of audiences, featuring seven unique programs which include both a men's and women's program, a diabetic men's and women's program, the men's and women's "Silver program" and a vegetarian program.

"We are so proud to offer our first program to combine weight-loss, these heart-healthy ingredients, and great tasting food all in one," said Joseph M. Redling, President and Chief Operating Officer of NutriSystem.

Redling also commented about the dedication of his company to the needs, goals and wants of its customers that led to the launch of the NutriSystem Advanced program following three years of research and development, stressing the first-rate qualities of both the product and the overall customer support.
