Why Reset?

Our environment has become more and more toxic. Our bodies absorb pollution and harmful chemicals all our lives, along with the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water we drink. These toxins can get stored in our bodies, clogging our cells and slowing down their natural functions.

It's not enough just to work out and eat right. At Beachbody®, we realized we had to take a break from the everyday and find a way to get those toxins out of our bodies. Along with getting in shape on the outside, we had to start getting healthy on the inside. We decided it was time for a Reset. 

What is the Beachbody Ultimate Reset?

The Beachbody Ultimate Reset is a complete, three-phase, 21-day program that provides everything you need to:

• Phase 1: Balance Body Chemistry Reclaim your body's natural balance. Constant consumption of preservatives and chemical-laden foods along with exposure to toxins and pollution impair normal body processes. During Phase 1, you’ll balance your body chemistry with four of the six supplements in order to optimize its systems. This will also reduce cravings or dependencies on items such as sugar or caffeine
• Phase 2: Remove Toxins & Reset Digestion Release the harmful materials you may be storing within you. In Phase 2, you’ll be reversing the effects of poor habits, unhealthy foods, and environmental toxins. You’ll modify your diet so that your digestive system won’t have to struggle, and digestive problems you may have experienced before such as bloating and indigestion will be significantly reduced as your gastrointestinal tract is cleansed.
• Phase 3: Rejuvenate Your Health  Restore your system to its maximum health.  When you reach Phase 3, you will experience a profound positive change in your mood and energy level. During the final week, you’ll eat foods of high-nutritional value whose nutrients are easily absorbed and return healthy bacteria to your freshly scrubbed digestive tract with pre- and probiotics. This will set you on the path to long-term healthy living.

What are the benefits of the Beachbody Ultimate Reset?

In just 21 days, the Ultimate Reset can help you gently restore your body to its original factory settings," to help you:

• Have more energy and greater focus
• Experience better digestion and a more positive mood
• Enable your body to function more efficiently
• Lose weight
• Improve your overall health

What the Beachbody Ultimate Reset is NOT:

• A starvation diet. (You'll eat three filling, healthy meals every day.)
• An abrupt cleanse that's hard on the body. (The supplements work together gradually to gently shift your body's internal settings.)
• A laxative-based, colon-focused cleanse, which fails to truly detoxify the whole body. (You won't be running to the bathroom every hour!)

• Alkalinize – Helps maintain alkalinity.

Good Carbs -- Bad Carbs

What is good carbohydrate?  What is bad carbohydrate?  Why do we need to avoid bad carbohydrate?  What carbohydrate should I eat?

What's a "GOOD" Carb?

Carbohydrates are an ideal source of energy for the body. This is because they can be converted more readily into glucose, the form of sugar that's transported and used by the body, than proteins or fats can.


There are two types of carbohydrate: complex and simple.


Complex carbohydrates are often referred to as starch or starchy foods. They are found naturally in foods and also refined in processed foods. 

Complex carbohydrates as natural starches are found in:

• bananas
• barley
• beans
• brown rice
• chickpeas
• lentils
• nuts
• oats
• parsnips
• potatoes
• root vegetables
• sweet corn
• wholegrain cereals
• wholemeal breads
• wholemeal cereals
• wholemeal flour
• wholemeal pasta
• yams

Complex carbohydrates as refined starches are found in:

• biscuits, pastries and cakes
• pizzas
• sugary processed breakfast cereals
• white bread
• white flour
• white pasta
• white rice

Simple carbohydrates are also known as sugars.  They also exist in either a natural or refined form.  Natural sugars are found in fruits and vegetables.

Refined sugars are found in:

• biscuits, cakes and pastries
• chocolate
• honey and jams
• jellies
• brown and white cane sugar
• pizzas
• prepared foods and sauces
• soft drinks
• sweets and snack bars.

Simple carbohydrates (sugar) cause tooth decay.



 All carbohydrates form glucose when digested.  Glucose is transported around the body via blood and taken into cells to be converted into energy.  The slower the release of glucose and hormones, the more stable and sustainable the energy levels of the body.  The more refined carbohydrate, the faster the glucose is released into your blood.  This can cause peaks and drops in your blood sugar level and less stable energy levels in the body.

Complex carbohydrates provide a slower and more sustained release of energy than simple carbohydrates.  In their natural form they contribute to long-term good health, appetite control and sustained energy levels.

Your health depends on YOU!

Is Shakeology really worth it? Is it expensive?

 

"Is Shakeology® worth it?", "It's so expensive!", "I can get vitamins and nutrients from other foods, etc.", "Is there any other healthy shake similar to Shakeology®?" and many different questions I've approached from different people on Shakeology®.

If you think Shakeology is expensive, let me show you how it not only can save you money, but it can make you money, while giving you the best health you have ever had.

Shakeology is designed to replace 1 daily meal.  I replaced mine for breakfast, sometimes lunch.  Let's break down the numbers.

Average cost of a meal $5.50 a day - Monthly cost = $165.00

Cost for 1 month of Shakeology =$120.00

Difference = $45.00

If you replace 1 meal a day with Shakeology you will automatically be saving $45 a month.  That’s $45 a month back in your pocket for drinking something that will improve your health, and help you to lose weight, make you feel better, and even look better.

If you are interested in savings and discounts, contact me! 

As for vitamins - do you like popping all different vitamins and taking nutrient supplements to get enough vitamins?  Are you aware how much $ you spend for all different vitamins?  See example below of many different vitamins & supplements you need to get all for one month.

 I want to share the blog from Shakeology that I know you would benefits reading....

 

How Do I Really Know If Shakeology^® Is Worth the Money When Everything Else Costs Less?

 

There are many protein shakes and meal replacements that are less expensive than Shakeology. But comparisons based on the simple "protein shake" or even "health shake" are usually off the mark and don't stack up to Shakeology.

Shakeology was designed for people who want more than protein, and for people who want the health benefits being represented by the ingredients on the label. To really know whether a product measures up to Shakeology, you need to keep some things in mind:

How much is enough?

We are proud of Shakeology's 70+ ingredients. Other shakes will trumpet the number of ingredients they have too. But are the ingredients they are counting actually good for you? Are there any artificial flavors or colors listed in those ingredients? Not in Shakeology!
Are they derived from whole-food sources? They are in Shakeology! Too often the "magic ingredient" has been isolated from the enzymes and phytonutrients that actually make the ingredient useful when consumed.

And does the competition formulate for the synergistic benefits between the ingredients, or just slap together whatever is hot in the media? Shakeology was specially formulated for the collection of ingredients to work together like a symphony; this combination is so effective, some people report dramatic benefits within the first week. Other supplements point to one or two individual ingredients and build a "story" around their superfood attributes.

Protein

Pay attention to a product's protein source or blend. Protein sources like whey protein hydrolysate have been shown to trigger a much higher insulin response in the body. That's not an outcome we would tolerate in Shakeology.

Our protein source is whey protein isolate, which is more than 90 percent pure protein. Plus, Shakeology is loaded with digestive enzymes and lactase—that's the enzyme that breaks down lactose and is found in over-the-counter products like Lactaid^®. Don't confuse whey protein concentrate with isolate. Whey protein concentrate is the least pure form of whey protein made. The benefit of isolate versus concentrate is that the fat has been removed to achieve isolate. The fat in whey protein is what carries toxins consumed by the animal. That's the reason Shakeology can be used by so many people who are lactose-intolerant—because those toxins have been removed through the isolate process.

For our vegan formulation, we use sprouted brown rice protein, not soy. Does the competition use ANY soy in their formulation? Soy protein contains estrogen, mimicking compounds that can interfere with your hormones. On top of that, most of the soy in the marketplace is GMO (genetically modified). These are two important reasons why we don't use soy in Shakeology.

Glycemic index tested . . .

In terms of sugar, many protein shakes contain 1 gram of sugar or less. This is because they are using artificial chemical sweeteners. (Check the label for sucralose, aspartame, or sugar alcohols.) Shakeology's small amounts of sugar comes from natural sources and whole superfoods like coconut flower nectar and luo han guo, which are easily processed by the body and, in fact, have been tested and certified by an independent lab to have a low glycemic index of 24—that's lower than most fruits! (An apple is 36, and an orange is 43.)

What's not in the base, they may suggest you add later

Other shakes don't cost as much as Shakeology at first glance, but they also don't contain the full profile of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) for some vitamins and minerals, or whole-food sources of antioxidants, phytonutrients, adaptogen herbs, prebiotics, probiotics, or digestive enzymes. We've seen competitors make you buy a separate vitamin pack for $150 per month! Once you add it up, this is hardly a "good deal," and it's usually hardly even a good product.

To achieve the benefits of Shakeology we've seen, competitors charge between $250 and $335 per month! $120 doesn't seem expensive when you realize all of the benefits Shakeology delivers.

SUMMARY:

Formula: 70+ of the healthiest ingredients from whole-food sources from around the world VERSUS protein, fillers, artificial coloring, and isolated glamour ingredients Winner: Shakeology 

Protein Source: Shakeology's pure whey protein isolate or plant-based sprouted brown rice protein VERSUS soy, hydrolyzed whey, and/or whey concentrate blend
Winner: Shakeology 


Taste: Rich Chocolate, tangy Greenberry, or fruity Tropical Strawberry Shakeology VERSUS chemically-derived, artificially-flavored competition
Winner: Shakeology 


Price: $120 for Shakeology VERSUS—Oops! It's impossible to compare lesser formulations on price. But if you add in all the separate vitamins and flavoring agents the other companies ask you to buy to match the benefits and nutritional content of Shakeology, you would easily spend over $300 every month—that's 2 and half times the cost of Shakeology!
Winner: Shakeology



But the best comparison is results. From weight loss, to reduction in cravings, to regularity, to healthier cholesterol levels, to increased energy levels, to an overall sense of well being . . . We give a bottom-of-the-bag guarantee on Shakeology because we KNOW people will be amazed by how they feel. Shakeology is the winner by a total knock out!
