Digestive Enzymes & Probiotics. Okay, that sounds great but what does that REALLY mean for me & why do I care that Shakeology® has it?
Well, many of us eat our foods, whether it be healthy or not, & our bodies simply don't absorb it. Not good. The fact that long time suffers of IBS finally get relief when drinking Shakeology relys on this. You might notice that the first 4-5 days of you drinking Shakeology, that you're going to the bathroom a few more times than normal (sorry TMI but we need to talk about it). This is because Shakeology is helping your body regulate. Think of all the little enzymes as tiny scrub brushes cleaning out all the junk from your digestive system your body hasn't been able to absorb - Doesn't that sound refreshing? However, around day 5-6 you will begin to notice a rush of natural energy such as better sleep, no 2:00 crash, etc. Why is this? Well, now your body is able to absorb the nutrition you're feeding it & b/c it can absorb that, you will simply feel better overall. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=758535574159642&set=a.758591990820667.1073741826.142268112453061&&theater #teamdestiny #loveyourself #enzymes #probiotics#digestivesystem #nutrition #betterabsorption#scrubbrush #cleanyourdigestivesystem Phytonutrients - when I hear this word I think of a dog... I guess b/c of "fido"? I don't know.
Anyway, phytonutrients are natural chemcials that are found in a variety of plant foods. Shakeology is formulated with phytonutrients too! The list just keeps growing... How does this benefit you? Well, again, phytonutrients FIGHT DISEASES! Even if you're eating clean, you are still going to want to add this super dose of everything your body needs to empower it to run more efficiently & effectively. Why on earth would you settle with feeding your body junk & function at a moderate to low efficiency when you have something like this at your finger tips? Phytonutrients will detoxify your body from external factors. Phytonutrients will repair DNA damage caused by smoking & other toxins to our cells. WHAT!? Yup! And did you know that phytonutrients CAUSE CANCER CELLS TO DIE!? Amen! Again, as stated earlier, b/c you drink Shakeology does not mean you will never get sick BUT it's the best way to protect yourself... Would you go outside in the pouring rain without an umbrella even though you may still get wet? Of course you wouldn't b/c you would want to take every precaution to keep dry. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=758595264153673&set=a.758591990820667.1073741826.142268112453061&&theater #phytonutrients #teamdestiny #shakeology#loveyourself #killcancer #detox #repairdna #eatclean#healthylifestyle #fitmom #fitspiration #healthychoices#beeducated #dontfeedyourbodyjunk Antioxidants is a more common term... We've all heard it used but do we know what it really means for us? Antioxidants reduce inflammation & oxidative damage.
So... first off, studies show that inflammation is the precursor to nearly every existing disease. Examples of a few you might be familiar with: IBS, Alzheimer's, diabetes, heart disease, & some cancers. Have you ever seen a comparison of healthy organs & diseased organs on TV or school etc? Did you notice how the diseased organs were much larger? This is b/c of inflammation. Okay but what does it mean to reduce oxidative damage? First, let me say that rust is oxidation. That's a good visual. Okay - cells are where all life & diseases start. The healthier the cells, the healthier the person - right? The antioxidants reduce the free radicals caused by oxidation to keep healthy cells thriving. This reduces such diseases as arthritis, heart disease, hardening of arteries, & even some cancers. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=758717874141412&set=a.758591990820667.1073741826.142268112453061&&theater #teamdestiny #loveyourself #antioxidants#diseaseprevention #fightdisease #inflammation#decreaseinflammation #heartdisease #cancer #IBS#alzheimers #diabetes #makeitalifestyle #fitfamily#healthyfamily #healthychoices#becauseilovemyfamiliy So... Shakeology® is also made up with protein & amino acids. We have all heard of protein & usually relate it to chicken, fish, a protein shake etc... but do you know why it's important for your body?
Proteins help us to build lean muscle which, in turn, increases our metabolism - woop woop! Who could possibly wish for a slower metabolism? The less fat we have (direct result of more lean muscle), the more calories we require... the less lean muscle we have, the slower our metabolism is going to run. If you don't eat enough calories, your body will lose lean muscle b/c, in survival, your body will canabolize your lean muscle to try to make up for the protein it needs. You do not want this to happen - wouldn't you rather your body burn fat? I would! Besides this, proteins & amino acids are amazing b/c this is what is going to help reduce our cravings and support our brain function, clarity, and mood! The more dense the protein, the better to build muscle. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=759953960684470&set=a.758591990820667.1073741826.142268112453061&&theater #protein #reducecravings #teamdesinty #loveyourself #shakeology #burnfat #leanmusclemass#leanmuscle This is a picture of wheat grass. One shot of wheat grass is about $4-5 but did you know there is a shot of wheat grass in every single serving ofShakeology®ogy? Right there, it's paid for.
Wheat grass is great for the blood stream. Wheat grass is primarily used as a concentrated source of nutrients. It contains vitamin A, vitamin C, & vitamin E, iron, calcium, magnesium, & amino acids. Wheat grass is used for increasing production of hemoglobin, the chemical in red blood cells that carries oxygen which improves blood sugar disorders, such as diabetes. It is also used to help prevent tooth decay. You may also see it used for removing deposits of drugs, heavy metals, and cancer-causing agents from the body and for removing toxins from the liver and blood. Some also use wheat grass to treat various disorders of the urinary tract, including infection of the bladder, urethra, & prostate; benign prostatic hypertrophy; kidney stones; & in "irrigation therapy," the use of a mild diuretic along with lots of fluids to increase urine flow. The list goes on... you can research all the benefits of wheat grass... but it all boils down to the fact that its really good for you & in one serving of Shakeology, you're getting what people pay $4-5 for plus so much more! https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=760064620673404&set=a.758591990820667.1073741826.142268112453061&&theater #wheatgrass #teamdestiny #loveyourself#diseaseprevention Juicing. Juicing is great for you & full of vitamins & nutrition... BUT. You knew there was a BUT right? It is highly doubtful you're juicing all 70 ingredientsShakeology® has & in this case, you're still not assimilating what your body can benefit from drinking Shakeology. If you're juicing, that's wonderful, but you still need to supplement your health with Shakeology.

What does integrity mean to you? Shakeology® has integrity. Integrity means to be honest & to have strong moral principles.
How can a meal replacement shake have integrity? Shakeology is pure & clean. There is NOTHING artificial in Shakeology. It is truly good for you & will actually make you healthier. You have ONE life to live so why not protect yourself? Fuel your body right. Let me ask you... does your shake have artificial sweetners? Colors? Flavors? Stimulants? Shakeology does not. Did you know that Splenda was actually originally used as a pesticide? Does your drink contain this? In all truthfulness, how can something be considered "healthy" if it has ephedrine, splenda, dyes, etc in the ingredients? I guess you get what you pay for. ONE life my friends - It's your body, but why not fuel it with over 70 natural whole superfoods? And did you know this? Shakeology is not manufactured in a factory like most energy drinks or protein shakes - Shakeology is manufactured in a quality controlled lab in the USA... each individual bag of Shakeology is tested for purity of all 70 ingredients. Yes, please. Love yourself. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=760465803966619&set=a.758591990820667.1073741826.142268112453061&&theater #splenda #shakeology #artificialsweetners #artificialcolors #dyes #ephedrine #isyourshakehealthy #loveyourself #teamdestiny #integrity#myshakehasintegrity 81% say that Shakeology® helped reduce their cravings. Wonder why that is?
I'm going to tell you. Many, many, many of us suffer from "chronic malnutrition" - Not you? Here are the top 2 symptoms of "chronic malnutrition": feeling tired & having cravings - - - Now do you think you may suffer from this? These are 2 of the complaints I hear most often from people. Do you know what it means when you're body is craving something? Cravings are our bodies' way of screaming & begging for nutrients!!! Why would you deprive your body of this? You say, "Well, I eat healthy. I eat my veggies & fruit every day." Listen up - here's an example: An apple today has 30% less nutrition than an apple 50 years ago. WHAT? Yes. Our soil has been so depleted over the years that our "fresh" food just isn't quite cutting it like it used to. Here's another reason you might be feeling these symptoms of malnutrition - when you're "dieting", you're cutting calories, true? Normally when we're cutting calories, by the 2nd week we're feeling pretty tired & moody & then most of us quit b/c it's just simply not worth the undesirable person we've turned into. Who wants the headaches? UGH! I have a solution for you - you can get the real, undepleted nutrients while feeling full when replacing a meal & promoting weight loss by simply adding Shakeology into your daily healthy regimen. Shakeology is equivalent to eating 5 plates at the salad bar - and I'm not talking about the macaroni salad or the croutons & ranch dressing... I'm talking about the healthy STUFF! Actually, it's even better b/c when was the last time you saw camu-camu, maca root, blue green algae, yacon root, barley grass, etc on the salad bar at your favorite restaurant? Take care of the one body you have - this is where you will live for the rest of your life... keep it clean & feeling good. You do NOT need "energy" drinks - if you fuel your body the way God intended, you'll be shocked at how all the NATURAL ENERGY comes rushing in... STOP with the poison & feed yourself naturally! Love you. Love yourself. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=760802120599654&set=a.758591990820667.1073741826.142268112453061&&theater #teamdestiny #shakeology #loveyourself #cravings #stopcravings #junkfood #malnutrition #feelingtired #fatigue #fruits #veggies#superfoods #naturalenergy #saynotoenergydrinks #youhaveonebody I just want to debunk this now before someone questions it.
Someone might look at the ingredients of Shakeology® & say something to the effect of "Shakeology has artificial sweeteners b/c it is formulated with Stevia." This is where I want to offer some education - Shakeology does, in fact, include Stevia BUT BUT BUT the Stevia extract used in Shakeology is NOT whole leaf. It is water extracted & then purified with alcohol & dried naturally. No chemical processing. So, again, NOTHING artificial used or added. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=761311343882065&set=a.758591990820667.1073741826.142268112453061&&theater #loveyourself #teamdestiny #stevia #artificialsweeteners#allnaturalwholefoods #diseaseprevention#makehealthychoices #howdoesshakeologycompare#nochemicalprocessing #fitmom #fitfamily #yougetonebody |
