Formula 1 Express Bar: The Meal-Replacement Bar You Eat, Not Drink
By Dogus Dilan, Herbalife Independent Wellness Coach · Last updated 12 August 2026
Formula 1 Express is a meal-replacement bar built to the same nutritional standard as a Formula 1 shake — 15g of protein, 6g of fibre and 25 vitamins and minerals per bar in Cranberry & White Chocolate, or 13g protein and 7g fibre in Dark Chocolate. It’s designed for the days a shake isn’t practical: travelling, commuting, or a packed lunch, replacing two main meals a day for weight loss, or one for maintenance.
A Shake You Can Eat Instead of Drink
This bar is built to the same meal-replacement standard as a Formula 1 shake, just in solid form. As part of an energy-restricted diet, replacing two of your main meals a day with an Express bar (alongside one balanced meal) contributes to weight loss, while replacing one meal a day contributes to maintaining your weight once you’ve reached your goal.
Both flavours are suitable for vegetarians, contain no artificial colours, and come 7 bars to a box.

Candied cranberry pieces and cocoa nibs add real texture, so it reads more like a fruity snack bar than a compressed protein bar.

Couverture chocolate, cocoa mass and a light rice crisp texture, with no fruit competing with the flavour — the straightforward chocolate option.
