OPTAVIA Diet
OPTAVIA, a more recent iteration of the Medifast diet, is a low-carb, low-calorie weight loss regimen that makes extensive use of prepackaged foods known as "Fuelings." Although OPTAVIA's Fuelings are created without artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners, they still have the same macronutrient composition as the original Medifast products.
