Shakeology

Shakeology was the one missing link to my fitness/health journey.  Why?  Because I couldn’t justify the price.  I get it, I was there.  But what you hear is true – It’s worth every penny.  And, if you break down the cost of it, it makes sense.  It equals out to around $4 a serving….tell me what other healthy meal you can get for $4.  This shake is not just a meal replacement shake..its not just a protein shake….its so much more.  It’s a multi-vitamin, loaded with superfoods that would cost hundreds to buy individually.  It keeps you full, gives you energy, helps curb cravings, makes your skin and hair healthier, keeps you from getting sick….need I go on?  This is every but of nutrition you need, packed into on easy, mindless meal.  I just FEEL healthier when I have it.  And tha makes me want to BE healthier!

Here’s the nitty gritty:

What is Shakeology? Shakeology is a nutritional protein shake that provides a wide spectrum of healthy nutrients in a low-calorie formula.  Whether you use it as a meal replacement for weight loss or simply to ensure your body gets all the nutrients it needs for optimal health, Shakeology takes the guesswork out of nutrition.

What’s in it?

Shakeology contains over 70 ultra high-quality ingredients conveniently located in one glass, to deliver nearly all the nutrients you need to maintain a healthy diet.  It’s good for you, and good for everyone, because everyone’s diet is deficient in some of the key nutrient groups packed into just one Shakeology serving.
Protein from whey, which is highly absorbable, gives you 8 essential amino acids that help you build muscle, lose weight, support brain function, and keep your skin and bones healthy.
Vitamins and minerals support optimum health.
Antioxidants boost the immune system and help reduce free radical damage that can lead to heart disease, heart attacks, blood pressure, and stroke.
Phytonutrients support immune function and have anit-inflammatory properties.

Prebiotics support digestive and immune health.

Digestive enzymes help in the digestion of foods and increase the absorption rate of those foods for optimum health.

What can Shakeology do for you?

It is an effective way to help you lose weight, increase your energy and be the healthiest you can possibly be.  Shakeology can help you reduce cravings and promote healthy digestion and regularity. Shakeology recommends that you replace one meal per day with a shake along with regular exercise and a balanced diet.  Participants who did this experienced remarkable health improvements.  It can reduce your total cholesterol, reduce LDL cholesterol, reduce cardiovascular risk, and reduce oxidative damage caused by free radicals.
Why Shakeology?
I love Shakeology because I am a busy mom and it is a quick and convenient way to get complete nutrition.  It gives me energy to keep up with my kids, even on the days that I am seriously lacking in sleep.  It is easier to make and tastier than a salad, and it is a great on the go meal that’s not fast food, or full of sugars and fats.  If you don’t like eating fruits and vegetables then this is a great way to get all the benefits of eating a full bowl of fruits and vegetables without having to actually eat them.  If you have high cholesterol then this will help you lower total and LDL as well.
