Everywhere I turn there is a new nutrition drink, weight loss drink, supplement for this, that and the other thing. It isn't surprising that people are confused about what is right for them!
There are so many factors to consider when looking for a product that you are going to put in your body but where to begin:
*what is in the product? Is there a list of ingredients you can access to take to your doctor or at least to research yourself (side note-if you are not comfortable taking the product to your doctor you probably shouldn't even consider it).
*where are you buying it? Are you buying it from a reputable source that you can check on with the Better Business Bureau or at least know other people who have purchased it before.
*What are the benefits that this product is boasting? Can you talk to someone who is using the product, other than the person selling it to you? Can you see some more info on if these results could possibly be the same for you?
*How many products does the company sell? Do they have a solution for every problem under the sun, a cure for every ailment? Great products are not common, there is a lot of junk and fillers thrown in many products so be careful.
*How much does it cost? You don't know? Did that info get hidden behind the promises? Your good health is priceless, BUT we all value our money! If it is too cheap it probably does not have good quality ingredients. If it is too expensive you may need to evaluate how much you already spend on food and supplements and reason in the savings down the road of your improved health.
*Are you actually going to change your lifestyle or are you expecting that this "health drink" is a magic bullet? A health supplement is only part of a list of change you might need to change to improve your health. 2 key factors are that physical activity needs to increase and processed foods need to be removed from your diet!
So take some time, look closely at these products, ask around, sample... it's your health we are talking about. Now, how did your products rate on the questions?
My health drink of choice is Shakeology.
Shakeology has an in depth website with ingredients listed, the science behind it, and even where the ingredients come from.
Beachbody (the company that markets Shakeology) is a highly reputable company with an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. They offer a money back guarantee on all products...even if you just don't like them! If you order from the company you get a free coach to help motivate and encourage you, as well as answer any questions you may have!
Shakeology boasts increased energy, weight loss, decreased cravings, improved digestion and regularity and a decrease in cholesterol levels! A lot of good out of one product! Check out the results posted on their site, plus all of the results you can find on the main Beachbody site. Or ask someone you know who has tried it... they probably have a great story for you! If you don't believe those, check out what these doctors have to say about it on the webpage or watch the video, "100 doctors don't lie".
Beachbody sells 1 major nutrition supplement, namely Shakeology. They also have some vitamins and minerals, a few workout supplements, protein bars... all with complete ingredient lists. Plus over 20 workout programs - yes, a lot to choose from but with your personal coach it is easy to select what will work best for you!
How much does it cost. Shakeology is $120 plus shipping and tax for a 30 serving bag or 24-serving individual packets. You can get free shipping PLUS a free Shakeology workout program (valued at $30) if you sign up on Home Direct (HD), which can be canceled at any time. That comes to less than $4 a serving. Expensive, it can seem that way but how much does a fancy drink at Starbucks cost or a Jamba Juice? The long term effects of this nutrition to your body combined with the benefits of losing a few pounds and dropping your cholesterol are pretty priceless!
Are you actually going to change your lifestyle? That is a question solely for you, but buying Shakeology gives you all of the tools you need to start. Replace a meal with Shakeology, start the Shakeology workouts, check in with your coach or ask them to check in with you to encourage you along and slowly fix your nutrition and you will be amazed at the progress you can make!

If you are looking for ways to make it cheaper, consider signing on as a Beachbody coach! There is a one-time fee of $39.95 and then after that, only $14.95 a month to “BE” a coach. Many people sign up because of the discount – as a coach you get a 25% discount on all Beachbody products, including Shakeology. So Shakeology becomes $89.95 ($30 less) but when you factor in the coach fee, its $15 less every month. The Home Direct Shipping and Handling fee waiver also applies to Coaches, so you can save quite a bit by becoming a Beachbody Coach. You can then share this amazing product with friends and family and work on making a profit for getting yourself fit and healthy!
