Why you should be drinking Shakeology

Hello Readers,
I am posting again about shakeology. I can not talk enough about this shake. It is well worth the investment of 119 dollars or if you sign up to be a beach body coach its only 89 dollars. That is a 25% discount. Think of it this way. To get all of the nutritional value of the day that comes in just one glass of shakeology. You would be spending hundreds of dollars to buy all of these same ingredients. It contains all of the big super vegetables, all the super fruits, digestive enzymes for better digestion, Its is also a multivitamin with you total B complex vitamins for energy. It is the healthiest supplement on the market and you will not find an equivalent from a nutritional store. Here is a little more about Shakeology:

"The healthiest meal of the day.

Shakeology contains a proprietary blend of digestive enzymes and prebiotics that help your body eliminate built-up toxins caused by eating today’s highly processed foods. It’s also packed with super nutritious, whole food ingredients that deliver the essential vitamins, minerals, and amino acids that your body needs to curb cravings, accelerating your body’s ability to shed stored fat. If that wasn’t enough, Shakeology also includes more than 20 different antioxidants and phytonutrients which help reduce free radical damage that leads to heart disease, high blood pressure, heart attacks, and strokes.

By replacing just one meal a day with Shakeology will increase your energy, reduce cravings, lose weight, improve digestion and regularity, and transform your health.*"

What doctor's are saying

P90X, I bring it!

Today, I just finished Legs and Back from the world class home workout series P90X. It truly is every bit a extreme workout as its claimed to be. What is great about all the P90X workouts is that even the resistance days its also a cardio workout. You really are doing two workouts at once. I remember working out in high school and at gym's on resistance days doing arms or chest never never reaching this kind of fitness level. Those who already do P90X or any of the beachbody products know what I am talking about. Next up, I am itching to try BeachBody's Insanity with Shaun T.

The next best thing is the nutritional supplements that beach body has to offer life Shakeology, P90X, recovery drink, protein bars, and shakes. From reading the nutritional facts Beachbody's supplements are more nutritionally fortified with more natural ingredients than those that are at your local nutrition shops. Those reading please contact me and i will prove it.

I am enjoying some P90X recovery drink right now and like Mr. food says: : "ooohh, its so good!"
