Today, I want to go into detail about BeachBody's number one selling supplement, Shakeology.? Some of you may have heard of it before, and some may not have.? I have been drinking Shakeology for almost 6 months now, and now I'm going to share with you why I love it so much, and why I recommend it to everyone. This will be a series of posts, as there are so many details I want to go into.? I hope you know that I make it my goal to be completely honest, and to present the facts to my readers when reviewing a product, whether it's something I myself promote, or from someone else's company.?
First, let me share with you how I was introduced to Shakeology.? About a year before becoming a coach, a friend sent me samples of the shake mix.? I was VERY skeptical.? Because of my blog, my background in fitness, and my passion for helping others achieve divine wellness, I had already been approached by Advocare, Visalis, It Works, Herbalife, and the like.? Each of those companies' best selling products had a whole range of ingredients that I myself would never drink, and would never recommend to others, like soy and/or artificial sweeteners, flavors, etc.? So naturally, when I received the Shakeology samples, I thought it's ingredients list would be very much the same.? However, when I actually looked into it, I was incredibly surprised. I found that Shakeology was FULL of the most extraordinary super foods, antioxidant fruits, adaptogens, protein, digestive enzymes, and probiotics.? There were absolutely no artificial flavors, colors, or sweeteners, and it was all real, whole foods!? My attention had been grabbed.
I didn't order Shakeology right away.? In fact, it wasn't until a year later that I made the decision to give it a go.? After our first sampling, my husband wasn't convinced that it was worth the cost.? However, about a year later, his opinion and perspective were drastically changed.? He was preparing to begin a 21 day fast with a ministry we are a part of, and I wanted him to have something to drink that would offer more nutritional sustenance than just milk or juice.? I presented the idea of trying out Shakeology, and he agreed.? We ordered our first bag and he began drinking one shake a day after he got home from work in the evening.
He was SHOCKED at how his body responded (and so was I).? After not having eating all day, once he drank his shake, his body was flooded with so much natural energy, that he would go jogging around the neighborhood, come home, lift weights, and do push ups and sit ups.? Now, let me just say that this was not the norm for him, even when he was eating.? I, of course, had to check it out at this point, so I began drinking a shake a day too.? Even I, a whole foods addict, who prides myself on eating the most nutritionally packed foods, experienced a similar reaction.? I noticed immediately that my carb/sugar cravings were drastically reduced.? I also no longer craved that second cup of coffee in the afternoon.? One of the most exciting things was that I saw an improvement in my blood sugars almost immediately, partly due to the fact that Shakeology is certified low glycemic. It made both of us feel so good that we decided that we would figure out a way to adjust the budget to fit it into our daily meal plan.
One of the ways we would help make room for the cost was by my becoming a Team BeachBody Coach.? After all, coaches get a 25% discount on all products purchases.? Plus, if just 3 people order Shakeology from you each month, your shakes are then paid for!? That was a good start, and I really didn't initially plan to actually make it a business...just wanted to get the discount and maybe pay for our own shakes.? But the more I learned about the company and about Shakeology in particular, the more I realized that this was something I could get behind.? I found out shortly after becoming a coach that BeachBody is in the process of trying to get the "Certified Organic" label put on Shakeology.? As many of you know, this isn't always easy, especially since many of the ingredients come from all over the world.? But I did learn that all the super food ingredients in Shakeology come from sustainable sources.? Check out this video for more information on that.
I am so thankful that BeachBody takes such care to ensure that only the best and healthiest ingredients are in Shakeology.? They are far more concerned with product quality and that it actually works to help heal the body, rather than just creating another "weight loss shake". ? And that's what I love about it.? It's not just a weight loss shake.? Sure, weight loss may be one of the benefits you receive from drinking it, but it's not the primary goal.? I have received so many testimonies from customers who are experiencing the true healing power of Shakeology.? I have been brought to tears by the stories of so many people who have seen improvement of symptoms from things like lyme disease, multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, diabetes, irritable bowel disease, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure, not to mention those who are losing weight and gaining both their health and their self confidence back.? I have said to my husband many times recently, "I have the best job in the world."? And I mean it with all my heart.
I'll be sharing detailed accounts of some of these testimonies and the results people are getting from flooding their bodies with the nutrients it craves in the next posts.? Many competing products, especially other weight loss shakes, primarily aim to reduce calories.? And you all know that I don't believe by any means that that is an effective weight loss or health management approach.? I tell my clients all the time that the reason Shakeology works is because your body is receiving amazing nutrients from whole foods that actually satisfy and feed your cells.? That means you will be less likely to eat unhealthy foods, you will have more energy to work out, your entire body will begin to heal, and you will just feel better all around.? But it's the results they are getting, much more than my words, that convince them.
In the next post, I'll go into further detail about the specific ingredients in Shakeology, as well as where they come from.? I'll also be talking more about the wide range of fitness programs BeachBody offers soon.? When you combine the best in home fitness with the best nutritional shake on the market, along with a whole foods diet, the possibility for improving one's health and life are endless.? I'm honored to be a part of this company and the vision to see the ending of the trend of obesity in America.? If you have any questions, or would like to know more about BeachBody or Shakeology, please feel free to email me or comment below.? Have a blessed week!
