Shakeology

Starting Shakeology was one of those "Why not" moments for me.  My sister-in-law had been drinking it and she said it has helped her digestive system a lot.  She knew I had trouble in that arena (sorry, TMI).  I figured, well, I could try it out and if I didn't like it, I can always return it.  I bought it with the Piyo Challenge Pack and began drinking it everyday.  If you're like me and you don't drink diet soda, the first thing I tasted was the stevia.  I wasn't sure I was going to be able to handle the taste.  I will say after a while, I got use to it and it's not a big deal anymore.

I didn't feel an immediate change, as some do, but I did feel more energy over time.  I just wasn't sure if it can be attributed to the shake (though now looking back, I HAD been working out regularly prior to drinking the shake and did not feel I had the same energy as I did once I started with the shake).  What sealed the deal for me was when my husband left for a week long business trip again. In the past when he left, I'd feel super tired by the end of my work day.  Driving home from work was scary as I'd fight nodding off on the road.  Waking up earlier than normal made me bleary-eyed and unable to think clearly at work.  That week he was gone, I noticed that even with less sleep, while my eyes may have been tired, my brain was fired up and ready to go.  I didn't get that afternoon slump, and my commute home with the kids was definitely easier to handle since I had more energy.  And to top it all off, the shake helped me stay regular.  Win win!

I've been able to lose 10 lbs I didn't know I could lose, and I've been able to maintain my weight.  I drink it everyday for breakfast.

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 recomends 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 parent and it is a quick  way to get my daily dose of vitamins, but have it taste like dessert.  It supplies me with the energy I need to help keep up with work and my kids.  It is also easier to make and tastier than a salad, and it is an excellent way to eat healthy when eating a full meal is not possible.  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 may help you lower total and LDL as well.

How to use it.

It's very simple. 

Mix 1 scoop of Shakeology with 8-10 oz. of water.  If you like, add ice.  Or if you want something more filling and maybe even more satisfying, blend your Shakeology with ice and nonfat, almond, rice, or soy milk.  Shakeology dissolves easily, but blending it will give it a thicker, creamier texture.  When I make mine, I use 10 oz unsweetened almond milk, yogurt, 1/2 banana, ice and some frozen fruit.  The more liquid you add the thinner it gets!! I happen to like it creamier, but have drank it with just water too.  It really is up to you.
