New & Improved Chocolate Shakeology, Again.

Beachbody released a new chocolate shakeology, again. Not talking about the new superfood formula that came out on August 2012, but the newest customer improved shakeology released December 17th, 2012.

Here is the scoop...

Last summer, the improved chocolate “superfood formula” raised both some positive and negative feedback. Some people thought that when you opened the bag, it wasn’t as pleasant smelling than the previous formula.

The reason Beachbody released the new improved chocolate superfood formula several months ago, was that
they added 4 more superfoods and reduced the sugar, while adding more fiber to the mix. The result, was a
healthier shake, but one that many thought didn’t taste or smell as good as the original chocolate shakeology did.

There were postings on our message boards from both coaches and customers requesting to bring back the old
formula. Some were even losing customers because of this change. Beachbody knew that they couldn’t go back to the old formula because the new one was healthier. However, they could make it taste and smell better. More chocolaty and less earthy that is.

Then, there were others who absolutely loved the new formula and favored it over the old chocolate shakeology.
The shakeology sales were still strong overall and didn’t skip a beat because only the ones who actually new of the old shakeology were the ones having a negative opinion on it. They were the ones who knew the differences from the recent improvements.

Now brings us to the updated new chocolate formula that just released December 17th, 2013.

How Did They Come Up With This New Chocolate Shakeology?

Beachbody asked a panel of 2500 taste testing panelist including both customers and coaches to taste 2 flavors
of chocolate shakeology. Beachbody went back to the drawing board to improve the taste and aroma without
jeopardizing the 70 natural ingredients and superfoods.

Five Key Dimensions Of The New Chocolate Shakeology:

1. Aroma
2. Texture
3. Sweetness
4. Chocolaty(ness)
5. Taste, including aftertaste

My big thing was the taste. I must admit that the “original” or the very first  chocolate shakeology was better than the superfood formula that came out early 2012. I liked the original that I was drinking from Feb 2011-August 2012 better.

So after several attempts of trying to like the new formula, I found a recipe that was to die for. I think the most important thing is, is to just find a recipe you like. You can make anything work with the right recipe.

However, because Beachbody always strives to please their customers and coaches, they went back to the
drawing board. The results? They came out with a beautiful new Chocolate Shakeology meal replacement without
changing anything that was improved when they released the superfood formula back in the summer of 2012.

The taste was a quality sweet chocolate taste, and aroma that when you opened up the bag, you new right off the
bat, it was going to be delicious.

See Shakeology Success Stories

Chocolate shakeologyI mentioned the panel of 2500, but I don’t think I mentioned that I was one of them on the panel. They sent each
panelist 2 samples, each a different taste and aroma. The one I chose to be the best one, was the same that the
overwhelming majority of the other panelist also chose.

It was an easy decision for Beachbody to make after so many gave their feedback. It was the sample I remember as
#238. An aroma that when I opened the bag, felt like I was in Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory. It wasn’t too rich but just right that you wanted to indulge in it immediately.

What Does The New Chocolate Shakeology Bring To The Table?

Same great formula including superfoods:

  • Moringa
  • Coconut Flower Nectar
  • Luo Han Guo
  • Himalayan Salt

Except, better taste and aroma. It reduces the aftertaste, brings out and compliments the chocolate aroma, and
let’s the chocolaty(ness) of the natural cacao to come out and satisfy those taste buds.

Why Are Vitamin Isolates Missing On The New Shakeology Labels?

A few days ago I had an interesting question about the vitamin isolates on the Shakeology label. The question was “I noticed that the new label does not include the vitamin isolates. This would be a plus if it were true. Isolates aren’’t good in the long run. Isolates are much less effective when taken out of the food. Why are the vitamin isolates (which were on the old label) not included on the new label??”

Got Some Answers – Shakeology Label Nutrition Facts

This is a great question and one that I dove into directly to the Shakeology masters themselves to get answers. They really took their time and made sure to really give me an in depth explanation. I sent them some Q&A to get the best reply to this reader who asked the question and I was really impressed with how they handled educating myself about the reason of the nutrition labeling for the vitamin isolates in Shakeology.

shakeology label
Old label(left) New label (right) – Shakeology Nutrition Facts

First, I should let you know that the shakeology label for the the non vegan have the vitamin isolates. Vitamin isolates are the vitamin A, C, D listed on food items that list the amount per serving and the % daily value.

Here is what Shakeology said:

“All four formulas have vitamins and minerals that come from whole foods. Chocolate and Greenberry are fortified with added vitamins and minerals, which are listed on the left side of the label. Also, there are a multitude of vitamins and minerals in our Vegan formulations. But because they are derived exclusively from whole foods, and not fortified with controlled levels of vitamin and mineral isolates, these amounts of vitamins and minerals will vary naturally. Think of it like this; four oranges from the same tree will have different levels of vitamin C. For this reason, we are not able to specify vitamin and mineral amounts on the Vegan Shakeology labels.

One is not better than the other. Some people favor vitamins and minerals coming only from whole foods, while others believe that their bodies need extra vitamin & mineral fortification. It’s really up to you and what you feel your body needs. Many consumers find that a whole food source of nutrition is preferable to isolated vitamins and minerals, but Beachbody simply cannot legally make a potency claim on the label since levels vary from bag to bag, batch to batch. You’ll know the nutritional value by how you feel and how your health improves.

Shakeology is dietary supplement in a food form, and since our vegan formulas are not fortified, the levels of any one nutrient should not be an issue for anyone or for a pregnant woman. Pregnant women need to careful about levels of Vitamin A (10,000 IU is the upper limit), but the amounts we have at unfortified levels are similar to those found in unfortified foods and in fruits and vegetables. Accordingly, pregnant women should consider their intake of vegan Shakeology as part of their normal diet, but should not rely solely on Shakeology to meet the needs of pregnancy for nutrients like, iron, folate, Vitamin A, or calcium.”

What a great explanation. To be totally honest with you, this subject really didn’t even hit me until one of my reader’s posted this in my comment section of one of my articles. Another reason why I love comments. It really brings our community deeper in understanding different aspects of nutrition that we wouldn’t have thought of ourselves.

Four Different Formulas – Shakeology Label Nutrition Facts

Currently, there are four formulas of Shakeology:

  • Chocolate Superfood Formula (Include Vitamin Isolates Labeling)
  • Greenberry (Include Vitamin Isolates Labeling)
  • Chocolate Vegan (No Vitamin Isolates Labeling)
  • Tropical Strawberry Vegan (No Vitamin Isolates Labeling)
shakeology label
Darin Olien, naturalist and Shakeology formulator, with Cacao Pods in Indonesia

So basically, the vegan bags don’t have the vitamin isolates listed because it’s not fortified like the non vegan formulas are. Shakeology is nature in a bag. It’s an all natural supplement that gives a consumer the convenience of taking advantage of a variety of vitamins and minerals from the finest super foods gathered from around the world with the highest standards.

Summary – Shakeology Nutrition Label Facts For Vitamin Isolates

As stated above, the levels of each fruit for example on the same tree won’t have the same levels of vitamins in them. It’s just natural. This is why the vegan shakeology label doesn’t specify the exact levels of vitamin isolates such as the non vegan bags. They come straight from whole foods the way they are and not fortified, meaning in this case “adding vitamins” to foods which can set them at a desired level of vitamin isolates.

Each flavor is formulated differently than the other. I hope that this has cleared up any questions about the vitamin isolates on the shakeology nutrition facts label.

My Choice Of Types Of Proteins

18 months ago, when I decided to change my life by eating healthier and exercising, I knew that not only did I have to find a way to get the best of the worlds best ingredients into my body, but it had to be affordable. I had no clue what I was doing and up to this day, I learn something new. I found a way to get all the proteins I mentioned above with Shakeology.

People ask me, is it like juicing? I say, much cheaper and a lot more effective because it’s formulated to get max results from each ingredient. One serving of a $4 shakeology drink is equal to about $41 of vegetables, fruits, and grasses needed for juicing. Also, I am not about to take a juicer and a cooler of produce around to work with me. Then again, if Shakeology didn’t exist with the types of protein it has, I probably would haul around a cooler.

If The Shakeology Price Is Wrong, I Don’t Want to Be Right

Many people are wondering why the Shakeology price is higher than the average meal replacement. At first glance, people will notice the price, and they are immediately disappointed, because they think they can’t afford it or they simply fail to understand the benefits of Shakeology. However, the truth is, Shakeology is worth the cost. But don’t just take my word for it, see for yourself.

Label to label, you won’t be able to find me another shake more dominant. Let’s dig deeper.

Shakeology Price Too Expensive?

Many meal replacements on the market pride themselves with a lower price than that of Shakeology. Well, a Citroen is much cheaper than a Lamborghini or a Porsche 911. The truth is that as you can’t compare a Lamborghini with a Citroen, in the same manner you can’t compare a common meal replacement product with Shakeology. The ingredients that are put into the products made by Beachbody are extremely rare and very hard to find.

shakeology price
Shakeology price includes superfoods such as Moringa, aka Malungay

If you compare to other meal replacement shakes, you will truly see that Shakeology is special because of it’s world’s finest source of proteins and superfoods. With the Shakeology price, you’re getting super fruits antioxidants, super protein blends, adaptogens, probiotics, prebiotics and phytonutrients. Not to mention they also use the most quality proteins such as whey protein isolate.

The protein doesn’t stop there. They also use Sacha Inchi, Chia, Falx, Quinoa,Pea, Sprouted Brown Rice, and Amaranth depending if you go Vegan or not. So as you can see, you have a choice as to what protein formula to use based on your beliefs. What other shake does that for ya and keeps the quality intact?

Among the 70 ingredients included in the Shakeology price, there are over 30 superfoods such as:

  • Maca Root – An adaptogen herb known to promote endurance and stamina
  • Maitake Mushroom – Regulate blood circulation, reduces blood pressure, improves insulin levels, enhances the immune system and contains an anti-tumor/anti-viral effect
  • Amaranth – Boosts your immune system and contains 3 times more fiber and 5 times more iron than wheat
  • Camu Camu – Antioxidant that is known for having one of the highest amounts of vitamin C of any other fruit
  • Goji Berry – Contains more beta carotene than carrots and is also known to be the best source of vitamin C
  • Sacha Inchi – Super food of the ancient Incas containing antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids
  • Moringa – Increases the natural defenses of the body among many of its benefits.

Among others ingredients are Acerola Cherry, Luo Han Guo, Kamut Grass, Astragalus, and Spirulina, that come from all over the world like Bolivia,Taiwan, Amazon, Mexico, Peru, Costa Rica, Canda, and even Montana(USA) from farmers with the highest standards. So if somebody were to try to put all these together, they would have to travel in tens of countries, become a survivor to get to some of these hard to reach farms, and then formulate it to the right specs through top notch scientific approaches. Time consuming? Yes, but already done for you. It’s nature in a bag.

See this awesome video to see how Darin Olien, a naturalist, travels to get some of these superfoods.

Benefits of Shakeology

When we compare the Shakeology price with its benefits, we can see why it’s worth paying $4 for one glass. Some of the most obvious benefits of Shakeology are:

  • Improves digestion: You will be able to eat more without any gastric pains.
  • Lose weight: According to the reviewers and to the specialists, Shakeology studies show people lost an average of 10 lbs naturally within their first 90 days by simply replacing one meal a day with Shakeology.
  • More energy: You will feel energized without a crash from the superfoods such as maca root. Natural energy all day
  • Lowers your blood pressure and cholesterol: a great benefit that can’t be achieved with ease.
  • Eliminates all those harmful toxins from your body
  • Helps you feel full for a longer period of time. Curbs your cravings for sweets and salty fast food
  • Supplements a diet that lacks vegetables and fruits.

On top of all, a standard $4 glass is cheaper than a fast food meal with 10 times the nutrition. There is no doubt that Shakeology is the better choice to invest you money on versus a fast food meal or eating out. Especially in this fast paced world, shakeology is quick to prepare and easy to digest. Why not taking that money you’re spending on a regular meal and spend them on something healthier and less expensive? By simply replacing one meal a day with Shakeology, you will get all the health benefits your body needs. In the end, you might even save some money. (Click the picture below to see a complete breakdown on how you can save hundreds a year with 3 different options to buy shakeology.)

shakeology price

If you eat out on a regular basis, you’re probably spending over $300 each month. However, by choosing Shakeology, you will get 30 meals at home for only $97- $140. You will save about $180 each month on average and your body will never be cheated of its daily nutrients. Moreover, you can substantially improve your energy and also lose the extra pounds you have  just by replacing one meal a day with Shakeology.

Shakeology Price Summary

How many times have you gone out to eat this month? How much money was blown on foods that gave your body no nutritional value?  When you decide to change your eating habits, you will change your life. You will change the way you feel, and your moods will improve daily. You are what you eat. Our nutrition makes who we are and how we feel.

Will this be the choice for everyone? Of course not. But it worked for me and now I want to share my experience and success with you. The important thing is, find something that will get you healthy. I also recommend EAS and Gold Standard as trusted name brands. You won’t get the complete package like you will with shakeology, but at least you will be getting better nutrition than a greasy meal.

Shakeology comes risk free. You can try it and if you don’t like it, return it for a full refund minus S&H within the first 30 days. I will actually even give you the number to return it if you are not 100% satisfied.  1-800-470-7870. No questions asked.

Life has taken everyone by hand and forced them to eat on the go, and because of that, most people have a good amount of malnutrition and it’s taking over their lives slowly and secretly. When you have a supplement shake that can give your body what it needs daily, you can start to live a healthier lifestyle by curbing those old cravings and changing what you put into your body on a regular basis. Let the Shakeology price work to your health advantage by knowing the difference in what you are actually getting versus other shakes. I did, and it changed my life completely.

How To Get Rid Of Bloating – Simple Things To Know

Bloating is a feeling that the tummy is swelled up and full of gas. It affects people of all ages and gender though some situations act as catalysts to the condition. This has left many people wondering on how to get rid of bloating effectively. We all know how uncomfortable bloating can be. Well, there are some remedies that can help you get rid of it effectively and naturally.

Bloating is caused by quite a number of factors but the most common causes include;

  • Indigestion/overeating– You’re probably experiencing a bloated stomach after a nice cook out, picnic or even a festive season. This is the most common cause of a bloated stomach. Avoid over eating no matter how tempting the food is. You might be tempted to taste every single type of food during events but resist the temptation. The after effects aren’t worth it so keep this in mind when the temptation becomes too much.
  • Wrong type of food– Some foods are related to bloating and gas production. Avoid these types of foods at all costs but eat other types of food with the same nutrient level as these. Some of the foods that cause bloating include; Dairy products, cabbage, asparagus, wheat, apples and pears, beans, fatty foods, salty food and carbonated drinks
  • Bad eating habits– Chewing with your mouth wide open or talking while eating will lead to your swallowing of air. This will end up in your stomach hence bloating. Chewing gum is also related to gas production as you tend to swallow a lot of air in the process. I’m sure you don’t chew with your mouth open anyways, right?

How Does Bloating Occur | How To Get Rid Of Bloating

Sometimes our bodies cannot or have a hard time digesting some certain types of food that we eat. For some people, dairy products cannot be digested by our bodies. Some people can’t digest fructose in fruits either. In some instances, we eat food that has a certain ingredient that gives our bodies a hard time digesting. In such instances, the body fails to release enzymes meant for food digestion. When this happens, the bacteria that leads to gas/ bloating is fed hence the aggravation of the problem.

Good News About Bloating | How to get rid of bloating

The best thing about your little situation is that it isn’t permanent; you can treat it naturally and effectively.
It is always advisable to eat small meals frequently rather than large meals. This will give your body adequate time to digest the food before the next meal. When this is done, chances of bloating and gas production are reduced.

You might be in a hurry but remember to completely chew your food to aid in digestion. This will make the process easier and efficient hence reducing the chance of gas. Carbonated drinks are a real culprit when it comes to a bloated stomach. Avoid these kinds of drinks at all costs as you are likely to be bloated later on.

Shakeology Ingredients
Prebiotics, Probiotics, and Digestive Enzymes to help with bloating and healthier digestion

Exercising regularly will help keep your digestive system healthy and functioning properly. Being a couch potato will definitely yield the opposite results. Fatty foods and junk foods are big propellers to indigestion and bloating. This is because they slow down digestion which will lead to gas production.

Foods that will answer your ‘How to Get Rid of Bloating?” Question

Lucky for you, there are some certain foods that will keep your tummy safe from bloating. These include;

  • Herbal teas. These have the capability to break down gas bubbles that lead to a bloated stomach if ignored. Tea also acts as a diuretic which keeps your bowels healthy and well-functioning.
  • Yogurt. Why not stay safe the yummy way? It contains probiotics which is a good bacterium that aids in digestion. Bloating is also known to bring about a feeling of nausea which can be gotten rid of by the yoghurt.
  • Green leafy vegetables. These are known to have high magnesium content. It is always a good idea to cook your vegetables to reduce the chances of bloating. Vegetables are known to aid digestion and keep gas away.

Through the correct intake of the right kind of foods, in the correct portions and in the best form bloating is kept at bay. This will keep your digestive system running smooth and effectively. It will also mean that the food is properly digested.
While learning how to get rid of bloating, it is a great idea to steer away from whole grains and wheat. These take longer to digest,  being a burden to your digestive system.

Shakeology Ingredients Help With Weight Loss

If you’ve heard anything about Shakeology, you’ve probably wondered what it is and whether Shakeology ingredients are as good as they claim. These days, it seems like a new diet fad pops up every few months. It makes sense to be somewhat skeptical anytime you hear about a new miracle diet. In this article, I’ll give you the information you need about Shakeology to make a decision on whether it’s right for you.

What is Shakeology | Shakeology Ingredients

Shakeology is an all natural meal replacement to help you lose weight by substituting a shake for one meal a day. To follow the Shakeology program, you must also exercise at least three times a week and maintain a balanced diet. Shakeology claims that by doing this, you can lose weight, lower cholesterol, and cut inches from your waistline, along with other health benefits. They assert that those who took part in their program lost an average of 2 inches from their waistline and 10 pounds in 90 days. They also lowered their cholesterol by 30%.

Shakeology Ingredients

Shakeology Ingredients

So what is it about Shakeology ingredients that gives them so many beneficial effects? The shakes foremost are a quality meal replacement. Thus, even though they are a substitute for a meal they are designed to keep you from getting hungry after drinking one. They are full of protein and 70 other healthy ingredients including over 30 superfoods such as maca root, sachi inchi, moringa, and more. In fact, Shakeology claims its ingredients are the power behind the diet’s numerous healthful benefits. So what are the ingredients and what benefits do they serve in helping you lose weight?

Whey Protein and Essential Amino Acids

Unless you go with our vegan line, Shakeology uses whey protein isolate. With our vegan shakes in tropical strawberry and chocolate flavors, sprouted brown rice and pea for protein is used.

Whey protein has attracted a lot of attention from the health food community over the past several years. It is a powerful muscle-building supplement and also is known to help people lose weight and increase lean body mass. Studies have found that using whey protein supplements before exercising helps to mobilize fat stores and burn fat more effectively.

Shakeology ingredients include whey protein isolate, which is easily absorbed and helps keep you full to prevent food cravings after drinking the shake. Whey protein isolate also helps your body to produce the powerful antioxidant glutathione, which may be responsible for whey’s other known benefits including its power as an immune system booster and possibly even as an anti-cancer agent.

Whey protein is also known to help your body maintain a stable blood sugar level. This characteristic of whey protein contributes to its ability to reduce hunger cravings between meals.

The essential amino acids that are found in the Shakeology ingredients help the body to repair and heal itself. They also are essential to proper brain function, allowing you to remain relaxed and yet alert.

Digestive Enzymes and Prebiotics

Shakeology claims its shakes are very easily to digest, and this quality may in part be attributable to the shakeology ingredients that are known to be supportive of good digestion. Shakeology shakes include prebiotics, which are ingredients that promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the digestive system. Prebiotics have been shown to help with immune system function as well as reduce the risk of colon cancer and inflammatory bowel disorders. In addition, they keep your digestive system fluid, which is helpful in losing weight.

Shakeology ingredients

Shakeology ingredients also include powerful digestive enzymes that come from other healthy plants like papayas and pineapples, which aid your body in digestion. These enzymes can help your body to stay regular, as well as aid in the absorption of nutrients from other foods you eat. Being regular is an often overlooked, but important, aspect of losing weight. When you cook food, it can destroy digestive enzymes, so your normal diet may not contain them in high enough levels. This may be working against your attempts at losing weight without you even knowing it.

All in all, there are over 70 Shakeology ingredients, and in them you’ll find all your essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals, as well as over 20 antioxidants and phytonutrients. So what effect do all these ingredients have?

The Shakeology Study | Shakeology Ingredients

In a 90-day study conducted independently from Shakeology, participants were asked to substitute a Shakeology shake for one meal as well as follow the rest of the Shakeology plan (which included a balanced diet and exercise three times a week). As mentioned above

  • They lost an average of 10 pounds in just 3 months! In addition to the weight loss mentioned above, the researchers who conducted the study observed as much as a 90% reduction in oxidative stress in the participants
  • Their cholesterol levels dropped by 30% on average, and their LDL (bad) cholesterol dropped 38%. All in all, their risk factors for cardiovascular disease were reduced by 24%.
  • The participants claimed that the shakes tasted good and helped them curb their hunger.

Shakeology vs. Other Weight Loss Aids | Shakeology Ingredients

Shakeology ingredients have a proven ability to help people lose weight, as well as a number of other health benefits. But how does Shakeology compare to other weight loss aids? Alli, which is a popular over-the-counter weight loss pill available today allows people to lose an average of 5 to 7 pounds a year. With the lower dose Alli, you may only be able to expect weight loss of 3 to 5 pounds in a year. With Shakeology, participants lost an average of 10 pounds in just three months.

Another popular weight loss supplement, Chitosan, has achieved even worse results. After reviewing 15 clinical trials that dealt with Chitosan, researchers determined there were no obvious effects of the drug.

The truth is, most over-the-counter weight loss aids are relatively unproven. Shakeology ingredients, however, all have been shown on their own to help people lose weight. Thus, when they are combined in a Shakeology shake, it’s not surprising that their effects are magnified.

Additionally, other weight loss supplements are not always natural and may have side effects of their own. For example, the popular diet aid Phentermine was pulled from the shelves less only fifteen years ago after it led to several deaths and heart valve problems in women. Shakeology shakes are made with all natural ingredients, and thus you have nothing to worry about when you drink them.

All in all, Shakeology seems like a high quality meal replacement formulated to help people lose weight. Because Shakeology ingredients and it formulation for weight loss were chosen with such care from around the world, it seems to have good potential to help you lose those extra pounds. Look what it did for me.

Latest Chocolate Shakeology Superfood Formula Review

The latest change in the shakeology formula requires another shakeology review in my book. The new superfood formula came out this month, and anytime their is change, you know there will be both positive and negative feedback.

With the original chocolate flavor that I previously got each month for me and my wife, we liked nothing better than to wake up and have an early morning shake that just kick started our day. We had our recipes engraved in stone and that’s what excited us to wake up every morning. Knowing that I was going to have my Reese’s peanut butter shakeology, and get that energy boost to start my day was what popped me out of bed.

Well, we got our new shipment in this month and the label on the front said, “New Superfood Formula”. The moment we opened the bag, we knew something was different. Both the smell and the color was off. So like anybody would do, I mixed up the same original ingredients such as all natural PB, coconut oil, and water into the blender. I put the same amount of ice and added the shakeology powder and I was dissappointed. It didn’t taste the same or as good.

So I went online to figure out what has changed for this flavor, and what I found out was amazing. Before I go about telling you the difference, you must know that I was in total shock. I felt like the best part of my nutrition plan was taken away from me.

It’s the way we as humans are when “change” hits our daily routine isn’t it. But what do we have to do? Find a way to adapt to the change and make it work cause no matter what we do, change is the only thing that remains constant in life. Isn’t change what brought us all these fancy gadgets we have today?

Upgraded Health Benefits – New Shakeology Formula Review

After reading up on every shakeology review I could find through the company website, here is what I found out about the upgraded health benefits:

Less Fructose – Even though that fructose in shakeology is a natural substance, it’s still sugar. Don’t confuse this with “High Fructose Corn Syrup”. It’s not the same thing! Too much fructose entering the liver can make the human body hard to process it as sugar. So fat is developed and sends them to the bloodstream as triglycerides.

The reduced fructose has been replaced with sweet “superfoods” such as Coconut Flower Nectar and Luo Han Guo. What will this result in? Appetite-regulating hormones are more likely to be triggered, therefore feeling satisfied versus selling yourself short on the appetite satisfaction signaling system.

More Fiber – Increasing the fiber from 3g to 6g per serving by putting in the flavor-neutral vegan source, pea protein. Fiber is good for digestion and helps with your cholesterol. In addition, adding more fiber to the formula will help you feel full longer and reduce your food cravings even more than before.

4 New Superfoods – New Shakeology Formula Review

1. Moringa – Also known in America as benzolive tree, and West Indian Ben. There are many benefits including boosting your immune system, improving athletic performance, promote energy, weight loss, and vitality with it’s anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. Moringa is highlyknown for it’s vitamin C &A, protein, iron, calcium, and potassium. It contains four times more Vitamin A or beta-carotene than carrots. Moringa is commonly found in Africa, Cambodia, Nepal, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Central and South America, and Sri Lanka.

2. Coconut Flower Nectar– Natural source of B vitamins and contains 17 amino acids. It’s also high in potassium, magnesium, zinc, and iron. This component helps add more quality sweetness after reducing the previous fructose element

.

3. Luo Han Guo – an antioxidant that has been used as a remedy in traditional Chinese medicine for over a millenium. This ingredient in said to have helped with high temperatures, heat stroke fever, and congestion of the lungs, according to it’s first recordings in America in 1938.

4. Himalayan Salt – Healthy salt containing about 70 trace minerals. Human body needs salt and can’t live without it. However, you need to stay away from table conventional salt. Himalayan salt keeps your body’s blood sugar, water, and PH levels in check, as well as promotes respiratory and vascular health.

shakeology review
Himalayan Salt in Shakeology

Other recent improvements is that they have taken out both suma root & blue-green algae. One reason is so that pro athletes can now take shakeology without the fear of failing illegal substance policy tests. Not that the Suma Root was illegal, but today’s tests for illegal substances in pro sports aren’t advanced enough yet to tell the difference between this natural Brazilian ingredient and harmful steroids.

Grass juice powders. These grasses are first pressed into juices allowing the nutrients to concentrate more, and then dried to a powder for use in shakeology for a better use of probiotics. Probiotics help prevent infections in the digestive tract and can kill bacteria that usually causes sickness.

My Final Thoughts On the New Formula – Shakeology Review

After reading up on why they actually changed the formula that I loved previously already, I learned that it is for the better. Reducing the amount of fructose is key. Although it was natural, too much sugar no matter what type it is links to type 2 diabetes and other health problems. So it is clear to me that Beachbody wanted to improve on that aspect of the product.

Adding some of the best superfood ingredients today like Moringa, or “Malunggay” as it is known in my country of the Philippines, is absolutely amazing. You can read more about Moringa superfood here.

So what about the new shakeology chocolate formula taste? I know that this is what you’ve probably been waiting for. After recognizing the improved benefits, I knew there had to be a way that I could be drawn to all it’s added new benefits. So I mixed up a few modifications for a new recipe and found one that I like.

I now mix my new chocolate superfood formula with:

  • 4oz of dark chocolate almond milk
  • 5 oz of water
  • 2 tbsp all natural Peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp Extra virgin coconut oil
  • with 5-7 pieces of ice

The added dark chocolate almond milk instead of previously adding “all” water really made a world of difference.

Tip from my wife:
Blend all the ingredients “MINUS” the shakeology powder to a smooth liquid, then add shakeology briefly to the blend just to mix it all together.

For more recipes, visit my recipe board on Pinterest (Opens in new window).

This will eliminate any thickness or over frothing and create a perfect blend if you don’t want your shakes too thick.

I must say that this recipe has got to be better than the previous original. Which makes this new superfood formula a win for me. If you are new to the shake, you won’t have a problem. Many of the negative comments about the new formula was from people who had to convert from the old formula, which was spectacular too, but not superior to the new and improved shakeology formula today.

However, Beachbody always listens to it’s coaches and customers feedback and have put together a censory panel. This was done to help improve anything that needs to be better for the customers and coaches who are committed to their health. Due to this, you can bet that anything in the future that can improve the formula will be done to always make sure that you have access to the best ingredients in one shake possible.

See the New Chocolate Superfood Formula nutrition label. My suggestion is that you compare it “full label to full label” with other brands if you are in the market for a meal replacement and tell me what you think below in the comment section. Although most meal replacements don’t disclose 100% of it’s contents, Beachbody makes sure that you know everything you are putting into your body by including 100% of it’s contents onto  the label.

Change is good, but not always welcomed at first. As you get to know the benefits of the new shakeology superfood formula and find a recipe that you like, it’s all sunshine and smiles from there, and in my experience, you won’t want to look back even though i wanted to at first. I hope this shakeology review was helpful to you in knowing the new shakeology superfood formula and it’s benefits.

Don’t Buy The New Chocolate Vegan Shakeology, Yet!!!

Until you have read this….Is the Chocolate Vegan Shakeology just like the Tropical Strawberry Vegan flavor? I’ll be honest with you that when the Tropical Strawberry vegan Shakeology first came out several months ago, I was so excited. I ordered my first monthly supply of the flavor and I was less than 100% pleased because it had a powder taste that took getting used to.

Do I Recommend Chocolate Vegan Shakeology?

Now, if I was to recommend the tropical flavor, I would say that it taste best by itself, without adding anything to it such as juices, extra fruit, ect. I can honestly say that after months of taking this flavor, I am good with it, but not as favorable for me as my ultimate flavor, Chocolate.

Now, Beachbody has come out with a new flavor, Chocolate “Vegan” Shakeology. I had the opportunity to try it this past weekend in Las Vegas as they introduced the new flavor. I was a little hesitant because of the fact of my initial experience with the previous vegan flavor. I didn’t want to ruin my love for my already chocolate addiction to the existing chocolate(not the vegan one) shakeology.

chocolate vegan shakeology
Introducing Chocolate Vegan Shakeology For The First Time

So I tried the Chocolate Vegan Shakeology to give it a true taste test and see if it was something that I would recommend to my coaches, customers, family, and friends.

I must say that it was amazing!

It is smooth and actually has a dark chocolate like kick to it. If you don’t like dark chocolate, than the best thing to do would be to order it and if you don’t like it, return it for a full refund within the first 30 days no matter how much is gone from the bag.

How Did Chocolate Vegan Shakeology Taste For Me?

When I tried it, I tried it with all natural peanut butter and a banana. It was amazing because that is what I currently take my regular chocolate shakeology with. This was just as good but with a slightly different chocolate flavor, hint of dark chocolate.

So if you are thinking about giving Chocolate Vegan Shakeology a try…..take it from me. You won’t like all the flavors, but that is why it comes with a “Bottom of the Bag Guarantee”. Meaning you can consume the whole bag and still return it for a full refund minus S&H if you decide it isn’t for you.

Chocolate Vegan Shakeology is formulated differently than all the others as so are all the others. Not one flavor is formulated the same. However, they all come with all the benefits such as the prebiotics, probiotics, digestive enzymes, amino acids, all natural ingredients, vitamins, and more!

Benefits Of Chocolate Vegan Shakeology

On top of all that, taking one or 2 shakeology servings a day will allow you to lose weight, increase your energy levels, help your cholesterol and blood sugar levels, and more. Chocolate Vegan Shakeology will be no different for these benefits.

I don’t expect you to take it from me and believe everything I say, cause who does that? You need to see for yourself and get what is best for your body. I can only give you my opinion and help you in making your educated decision on the Chocolate Vegan Shakeology.

Shakeology Scam | This Get’s Personal!

Shakeology scam is a FACT – at least for the naysayers being paid to put Shakeology on a negative light.

Let’s set the tone here that I am a human like you and have been skeptical of many products that claim to be the best and don’t follow through with their promises. I have been burned many times before and I was furious because I took it as an attack on my family’s finances. Literally, you don’t want anyone messing with your family’s money, especially from a salesperson that only wants to make a buck for themselves not caring about the benefits of you. So, to be up front here, I am a Beachbody coach and proud of it, but not because I want to sell Shakeology, but because I tried it first and had great results. As a beachbody coach, it allows me to share with other people my personal experiences in hopes that it can help them improve their life as well.

So let’s get this straight right off the bat…..I don’t write reviews about anything that I don’t use myself. Not only do I use the products I write about, but I use them the way they were made to be used to see if they deliver the results they promise.
Shakeology has definitely delivered on it’s promise!

To begin with, I’m not here to give false claims about Shakeology scam. As a matter of fact, I also had some doubts about the product before. However, because P90X was giving me some impressive results when I was starting out, I decided to give Shakeology a try after 30 days of starting my 90 day transformation.

The experience has taught me some valuable lesson in life; I took a risk, went beyond my doubts because I wanted to find something that could improve my inner well being while getting stronger, and it paid off. However, if you still believe Shakeology is a scam, you actually have two options to choose from:

  1. Leave this article completely cause no matter what I say, you won’t listen because you’ve made up your mind already
  2. Continue to read on to discover some surprising facts about Shakeology.

What you will find here is my honest experience that maybe will help you with the misconception of the Shakeology Scam myth.

Shakeology Scam: Debunking the Myths

The Shakeology scam myth is actually not a bad thing in my opinion. That is, because everything in life that does well or is successful has it’s attackers, haters, and non believers. In most part, these myths start from people that are either competitors, have not used the product in the right way, or just simply have nothing better to do than to put success down.

You have every right to believe that shakeology is a scam until proven that it isn’t. But how can the true benefits of shake0logy be proven to you? Give it a try yourself such as I did. Not only that, but give it time to actually get you the results it promises. Some people try it once and say it doesn’t work. Well yeah!! It won’t after just one shot. You need to give your body time to adjust to the new regime. If you do, you could find yourself healthier than you have ever been.

So why do I believe in Shakeology? At age 36, I have more energy throughout the day than most. My 66 year old diabetic parents are thinking about getting off their medication because their blood sugar has improved drastically since taking it once a day.
Is Shakeology the only solution? Of course not, but it is what I chose and it works!

Shakeology is not a protein shake but a meal replacement made with a total of 70 natural ingredients. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why people start to throw some doubts on Shakeology – the idea of combining a total of 70 fruits and vegetables from all over the globe and then processing them to create a single fitness product is too hard to handle, let alone too expensive to buy.

Shakeology is REAL, and if you decide to give it a try like I did, you’re giving yourself a chance at a life changing experience. The myth about Shakeology being too expensive doesn’t even make sense because if you’re going to buy it through the Monthly Autoship plan (no shipping fee, 30-day supply), it will turn out that a single serving costs only $3 to $4. That’s way too cheap if you’re going to consider all the hard work and high-grade ingredients involved in coming up with this all-in-one fitness formula.

So what’s the point of believing in Shakeology scam when there are obviously more reasons to trust it? I’m not here to convince you to buy Shakeology because at the end of the day, the power to decide is still yours. But what if Shakeology scam is actually true? Well, I thought the same thing before but once I discovered all the good things that Shakeology has to offer, I was able to put all my worries at bay.

Shakeology Scam | What You Need to Know

If you think that the idea of Shakeology scam always keep you from trying the product, consider the following benefits you can get from each serving of Shakeology:

  • Less food cravings so you can lose more weight easily
  • Increased energy and stamina to boost your workout performance
  • Improved digestion and regularity
  • Lower cholesterol and an improved mood.

(See what unbiased Foodfacts.com has to say about Shakeology.)

Aside from the benefits above, the taste of Shakeology (especially chocolate, my favorite. ShakeologyRecipes here) is so smooth that you will actually think that you’re having a dessert. In addition to that, Shakeology also offers a total of 20 phytonutrients and antioxidants that help in battling out free radicals being linked to certain cardiovascular disorders and even cancer.

But the good news about Shakeology doesn’t end with only four benefits. As a matter of fact, Shakeology is caffeine and gluten-free so people with caffeine intolerance, hypertension and Celiac disease don’t need to worry about their health while drinking Shakeology.

Now, if you think that’s all that Shakeology can offer, you might be surprised to discover that it’s only the tip of the iceberg.
According to a recent 90-day study, people who regularly use Shakeology as a meal replacement record an average weight loss of 10 lbs., lowered cholesterol by 30% and growth of healthier skin, hair and nails by 70%. Now I personally have friends with bigger margins of weight loss but let’s stay REAL and common without exaggeration . Also, it’s not mainly about weight loss, but being healthier all together isn’t it?

So Is Shakeology A Scam? No Way!

No matter what they say about a Shakeology scam or whether it is fact or fiction, I will still stick to this all natural meal replacement as my choice because it has proven to work for me and my family.

What’s great about Shakeology is the “Bottom of the Bag” guarantee which means you can return the empty bag to Beachbody (less s&h) after one month if you’re not satisfied with it. Apparently, I still use Shakeology so that means it’s benefits far outweigh the doubts I had for it before. My love affair with Shakeology has also become possible because of the fact that I can drink my favorite chocolate Shakeology as it is or make some tasty recipes out of it and still get great results.

So next time you come across a Shakeology scam situation, most likely it will be coming from a competitor that is trying to win you over, or someone who didn’t give it the right amount of time to work for them, or simply someone who doesn’t like it and that’s okay.

You have to use what works for you!

Do you still believe in Shakeology scam? What are your thoughts/experiences about Shakeology? Feel free to share your thoughts and suggestions in the comment section below or share this article to spread the truth about Shakeology scam!

How Much Weight Can You Lose With The Shakeology Cleanse?

[box type=”note”]I appreciate you stopping by and sharing the day here at GetFitToLive.com. I know you are busy, but take a moment and sign up for a FREE BEACHBODY MEMBERSHIP for support on demand, motivation like no other, and a social fitness community to keep you on track to your fitness goals![/box]
Have you ever heard of the Shakeology cleanse? If you’re a true blue fan of instant weight loss programs, chances are, you already know about this program deep into its roots. Hailed as the intensified version of the Shakeology program (which takes months at the very least), it’s a 3–day challenge which seeks to help people lose more weight and get rid of disease-causing toxins at the same time.

It really sounds fascinating and with a promise of losing an average of 3 to 6 lbs. within three days, more and more people can’t get enough of Shakeology cleanse. But what is it really that makes Shakeology cleanse an effective weight-losing strategy? Is it generally safe for everyone? How is it done? I know you’re getting curious about this one so l won’t beat around the bush and just give you the answers straight to the point.

 

What Is The Shakeology Cleanse?

Shakeology is a meal replacement created exclusively for Beachbody by naturalist himself, Darin Olien, and a team of experts with one goal in mind: get more people to achieve a healthier well being. Shakeology is not just your ordinary fitness drink; with a total of 70 nutrients harvested straight from different parts of the world, Shakeology has clearly set the bar high in creating a life-saving drink composed mostly of whole foods and different phytonutrients. It is intended to work as a meal replacement, supplementing moderate to extreme exercise programs like P90X and Insanity. I personally experienced all the benefits that Shakeology promises to its consumers:

  • faster weight loss
  • improved stamina
  • healthier digestion
  • decreased food cravings ….

…..all these are reasons why I remain a Shakeology fan up to this day.

Shakeology Cleanse
The Shakeology Cleanse Program

But there’s an actual limitation that you need to know if you’re going to use Shakeology: Never replace more than two meals a day with Shakeology for a long time or else, you will just end up sluggish and malnourished at the same time. However, there is an exception for every rule and this is when Shakeology cleanse comes to the picture.

Also known as Shakeology Jumpstart, Shakeology cleanse is a detoxifying way to lose more weight within a period of 3 days. During this time, you will replace major meals with Shakeology and other items included on the recommended diet (see below). However, there’s no reason for you to worry about getting starved because Shakeology has enough calories to get you energized unlike other diet fads and detoxifying programs that almost starve their participants to death.

Shakeology cleanse is not a big fan of calorie deprivation because all your hard work will end up in the trash bin if you starve yourself just for the sake of losing weight. And may I repeat: Shakeology cleanse is not intended for more than a three day period. However, you can repeat it anytime after every 3 months to give your body enough time to cope up.

 

What are the benefits of Shakeology Cleanse?

Aside from losing weight within a very short period of time, people who have used Shakeology cleanse every once in a while generally feel lighter and better after three days. This is mainly because it allows our body to consume nutrient-rich foods while slowly getting rid of all those undigested foods and toxins that have settled down within our system for quite some time. These toxins are the real threats for our health so we basically prevent them from aggregating within our body at all costs.

Shakeology cleanse is intended for people who are in search for a great way to trim down some fats gained from a holiday or a vacation, those who want a springboard to start their fitness journey and for fitness buffs who just want to get rid of all the toxins and fats within a short span of time.

 

How to do the Shakeology Cleanse?

If you think that Shakeology cleanse will literally clean your system by starving you, then you’re getting it wrong, my friend. Believe it or not, you can even incorporate some salads and fruits to your diet especially if you know firsthand the specific quantity of each food you need to follow. In addition to Shakeology drink, here are just some of the food items you should add to complete a 3-day Shakeology challenge:

  • At least 3 to 4 liters, or 8 cups of water a day to flush out the toxins.
  • Fruits (optional but required if you’re doing P90X or Insanity).
  • Green tea (1 cup is recommended every morning, immediately after you rise up from bed).
  • Low fat salad (composed of at least 3 servings of vegetables, 2 tablespoons of low-fat salad dressing and 4 ounces of protein, usually either fish or poultry) served during dinner time.

Shakeology cleanse can give impressive results, at least that’s according to my personal experiences and of those who already tried it in the past. My first attempt on the Shakeology cleanse shed 5 lbs off of me in the 3 days.

Of course, you need to order Shakeology to make it all possible; it might be expensive at first because you will need to purchase a 30 day supply. If you’re going to think about all the benefits in the long run, money will never be an issue and you can always get it with a 30 day bottom of the bag money back guarantee. This means that even if you finish the bag and decide you didn’t get results or feel better after replacing one meal a day with Shakeology, Beachbody will refund your purchase minus the shipping costs.

Sometimes people think that ordering Shakeology is just an extra expense. The truth is, is that you’re just basically redirecting where you spend your money to a more healthier meal daily.
