Shakeology

Let's start with what Shakeology is NOT.

Shakeology is not a protein shake. It's not a weight loss shake. It's not processed. It's not full of artificial ingredients, actually there are none. It's not a miracle cure.

What is Shakeology? A healthy eating shake. It's your daily dose of dense nutrition, that your diet is most definitely lacking. And if you don't believe me, read on. Shakeology is a meal replacement, you'll replace one meal a day with this delicious meal replacement shake and it supplements your nutrition to add what you are missing. It fuels workouts. It repairs muscles. It improves digestion. It curbs cravings. It regulates cholesterol and blood sugar, and so much more. It is your big glass of protein, amino acids, digestive enzymes, phytonutrients, vitamins, mineral, antioxidants, adaptogens, pre-biotics, pro-biotics, and digestive enzymes.


Shakeology is my addiction and My All-Time- Feels- Like- A- Cheat- Meal- Clean- Eating- Secret weapon! Got all that?

Where do I purchase it?

Add Shakeology directly to your shopping cart! YES ----> ADD TO MY CART! Then, just choose your flavor and your preferred shipping method. There are 6 flavors, each is great! My favorite is the chocolate. The 30 Serving Bulk Bag is the best value in my opinion. But you can also choose the 24 packets, which are conveniently measured and individually packaged for on the go, and you can mix flavors. When choosing your shipping method, I do recommend the autoship. It saves you on the shipping cost, and there is absolutely no obligation to continue with your shipments. We are the one company that makes cancelling easy, all it takes is an email! So choose it now for the shipping saving, and cancel later if you desire to. Or just choose the one time ship, up to you!

But for only about $4 a serving, you can treat your body to the delicious daily superfood protein shake that helps give you energy for your workouts, reduces junk-food cravings, and may help you reach your fitness goals faster. For me, the energy, nutrients, convenience, and curbing cravings is worth every penny! It's an uber-healthy meal for 4 bucks!

A nutrient-dense combination of antioxidants, phytonutrients, adaptogens, and many other superfood ingredients to give your body nutrients you can't get from a normal diet. 100% vegan option is available.

Shakeology is NOT A PROTEIN SHAKE. Most people just throw it into that category or they compare it to all the other shakes on the market. Shakeology is a meal replacement and not a protein shake. Which is good. People are not PROTEIN DEFICIENT, they are NUTRIENT DEFICIENT. Our American diets simply do not give us enough nutrients. And shoot, we are hard pressed on time to create healthy meals! We struggle daily to eat healthy and tend to grab the first fast thing we see when hungry! Shakeology has the right carb to protein ratio that your body needs to stay full for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. It has the fast burning carbohydrates with the slower burning protein to keep you satisfied. And the protein is high quality whey protein. It’s your daily dose of dense nutrition and the healthiest meal of the day.

It has a ton of natural, not processed ingredients that are going to meet your daily requirements for vitamins and nutrients. These are whole food ingredients,real food. So when you drink Shakeology in place of one meal per day, you notice that the energy you were lacking is decreased because you are now getting vitamins and nutrients that give you energy. These nutrients can be obtained from food, sure. But truly, no one person on this planet can consume enough food to give this many nutrients. It’s equivalent to 7 trips to the salad bar, 4 pounds of wheat grass, and ingredients that aren’t even found in your region of the world. Did you know that acerola cherries have more Vitamic C than oranges? And that they are found in Latin America? Probably not, but the nutritionists who create Shakeology searched all over the world for these superfoods so that you don't have to. It’s an incredible blend of superfoods that your body craves.

Furthermore, your cravings for sweets are decreased which is originally caused by vitamin deficiency and you are no longer deficient. You are not over eating because Shakeology is portion controlled, so your portions are in check. Less than 10% of Americans have their portion in check!

It's for nutrition, and of course when you have proper nutrition you naturally lose weight! Shakeology is CLINICALLY proven to help you lose weight, lower cholesterol, and regulate blood sugar.

Shakeology is one of the only shakes on the market that can be considered clean eating. So when you look at clean eating and Shakeology as an investment in your health how can you deny it! It's the one thing that keeps me on track when life gets busy! HECK there are days when I am on the go from the minute my feet hit the ground and the old me would have just not eaten at all because I didn't have time. Now I grab a shake and go!

I know you are wondering if you are going to pack on the pounds when you stop using Shakeology. Shakeology is NOT a weight loss shake. I'm sure you've heard nasty things about weight loss shakes, once you stop them you gain it all back, and I agree! Shakeology is a healthy nutrition shake... When you choose to stop drinking shakeology, you will just continue eating healthy. You are not going to see pounds pack on simply because you stopped drinking your shake. Shakeology is going to make your body feel so good, it's getting what it needs, so you may choose to continue drinking it. But either way you choose, you aren't going to gain weight after stopping like some other shakes out there.

Your body is the ONLY body that you are going to get. If you don't treat it with respect now it won't do you good later on!

That’s Shakeology in a nutshell, please visit my Shakeology website for even more information and recipes, flavor options, and more!

Don’t listen to a sales pitch for Shakeology. Don’t listen to a sales pitch for any other supplement either! Your body doesn’t care about a sales pitch. The proof is in the ingredients.

All that matters, when you get past the marketing and the sales pitches is THE INGREDIENTS! What’s in the product you buy? Are you buying a “meal replacement shake” that is mostly filler? It’s important to understand that your healthy eating shake is more than just a protein shake or a weight loss shake, it's a meal replacement, and it needs to sustain you for long periods of time, so more calories and protein are good things. The cheaper components will be less filling, and may cause you to snack and binge more. Are you buying a product that contains cheap fillers, cheap protein sources (like Soy), cheap fats, oils, artificial ingredients? Or are you buying a product that truly fuels your body with the nutrients it needs?

And remember, if you buy a bag to try it for a month, Beachbody is so confident in this product that they will refund your money if you don’t think it lives up to the hype. It’s our Bottom of the Bag Guarantee! Even if the bag is completely empty, send it back for a refund if it doesn’t make your body feel healthy!

You might wonder? Can I get all this from food? Shouldn't I eat food instead of a scoop of Shakeology. Well, first off no one in their right mind could possibly consume that much food! You can make 7 trips to the salad bar, consume 4 pounds of wheat grass, and fly all over the world looking for these ingredients, some of which aren’t found in the U.S. And second, I want to tell you that Shakeology is comprised of whole food ingredients. With over 70 ingredients in Shakeology, there is no one single drying process that is used across all ingredients. Some ingredients are dried naturally in the sun, some ingredients are air-dried at temperatures below 115 degrees, and some ingredients are freeze-dried. Shakeology does NOT use drum drying at high temperatures above 115 degrees, spray drying at temperatures above 115 degrees or ultra-high temperature pasteurization. Shakeology ingredients are not irradiated. The whole food ingredients in Shakeology are considered raw because they are not dried or heated above temperatures of 115 degrees. We are careful to minimize the processing of all of the ingredients in Shakeology to preserve the natural phytonutrients from the super foods in Shakeology.

You keep hearing about all the stuff in Shakeology. It has 70+ ingredients, selected from around the world, grown in the fertile soils of remote regions of the earth. What is all this stuff? Maybe you don’t really care what it is and you just trust the experts. Or maybe you want to know each and every ingredient and what it’s there for. If that’s you, this article is for you!
