Shakeology arrived last night, albeit, UPS delivered it to my neighbor. But I hiked over there first thing this morning so I could start my day with a chocolate shake.
One scoop into the blender with a half a cup of water, half a cup of milk and a handful of ice and -
an amazing and nutritious chocolate shake for breakfast. Bill Cosby would be proud - it's not chocolate cake, but it's close.
Why all the fuss about Shakeology? It's a nutritional gold mine.
Over the last few years I've begun to do quite a bit of research about foods in our nation - organic and processed and the effects they have on our bodies. I've tried to make better choices with my food so that I'm actually giving it nutritional substance, rather than just filling my belly. I like, and endeavor to try and eat as organic as possible, or at least let fruits, veggies, and meats comprise the majority of my diet, rather than processed knick knacks. I'm still learning and growing in this area, but I aspire to treat my body more and more as God intended.
So when I first heard about Shakeology, I was a bit skeptic. Powder mixes don't shout out health to me. However, after looking into what they put into the mix and other's testimonies of using it, including my sister, it sounded interesting enough to try.
There are a few things that really excite me about trying Shakeology -
1. It is packed with nutritional goodness.
2. It's convenient and quick for a lifestyle that is often on the go.
3. It comes highly recommended by many in the medical field including doctors, nutritionists, alternative medicine peeps, and chiropractors.
4. Although it's not certified organic (because that can be expensive) it is as close at you get.
This video does a great job at explaining where the ingredients come from.
I love the farmer who shares, "God blessed us with all this so we can bless the world."
I'll drink to that.
