Shakeology: Personal thoughts from a dedicated user
My thoughts:
I began using Shakeology in September and noticed a HUGE difference...a difference in the way I felt health-wise, a difference in my digestive system, a difference in my appetite, and a difference in my weight. I have been really impressed with everything that Shakeology has to offer, and will continue to use it daily. Where else can you find the best and most nutritious ingredients all in one glass? You just can't beat it.
Cost:
At first, I thought probably just as you are now - it's expensive! But in reality, it's not expensive at all. If you purchased all of the ingredients in one glass at a grocery store and tried to consume them in one day, it would cost you $41.25 and a whole lot of chewing (veggies take a while to eat). Instead, you can get everything in one glass for $4. Stop and take a look at what you are purchasing and consuming on a daily basis, and it will quickly put into perspective that Shakeology is definitely not expensive. Check out the following images comparing what you are paying for and what you are getting. Shakeology really is not costly at all - for me, it has been an investment in my HEALTH!

Shakeology: The Facts
So what's all the hype about Shakeology???
What is it?
Shakeology is a nutritional shake that contains over 70 ultra high-quality ingredients in one glass, providing an array of healthy ingredients in a low-calorie formula. Shakeology can be used for weight loss or simply to ensure that your body receives all the nutrients it needs in one day. Have you ever tried to eat NINE servings of fruits and veggies in one day? Challenging and expensive, right? Well, Shakeology provides all of those servings...in ONE delicious glass! Shakeology is good for you - and everyone - because everyone's diet is easily deficient in one or more categories!
What is in it?
- Protein from whey, which is highly absorbable, gives you 8 essential amino acids that help you build muscle, lose weight, support brain function, and keep your skin and bones healthy
- Vitamins and minerals support optimum health.
- Antioxidants boost the immune system and help reduce free radical damage that can lead to heart disease, heart attacks, blood pressure, and stroke.
- Phytonutrients support immune function and have anti-inflammatory properties. Many phytonutrients have antioxidant properties as well.
- Prebiotics support digestive and immune health.
- Digestive enzymes help in the digestion of foods and increase the absorption rate of those foods for optimum health.
What can it do for you?
Shakeology is an effective way to help you lose weight, increase your energy and be the healthiest you can possibly be. In an independent 90-day study, participants who replaced at least one meal per day experienced some amazing health benefits.

- The study also showed that participants were able to:
- Reduce total cholesterol by 30% on average
- Reduce LDL (“bad”) cholesterol by 38% on average
- Reduce cardiovascular risk ratio by 24% on average
- Reduce oxidative damage caused by free radicals on average by 45%, which can help decrease the risk for developing degenerative conditions like heart disease, dementia, and arthritis
Why do people NEED Shakeology?
It’s hard to eat the recommended daily servings of fresh fruit and vegetables every day, especially with today’s busy lifestyles. Convenience foods, like packaged or fast food, are so processed that important nutrients have been destroyed. Shakeology helps provide what you’ve been missing, delivering a wide variety of nutrients from whole food sources to meet your body’s needs. Plus, each highly nutritious, low-calorie serving helps to keep you full and satisfied between meals.
Shakeology simplifies nutrition and makes good “cents"...COST:
Shakeology costs approximately $4 per serving ($120 per month) for high-quality antioxidants, 23 vitamins and minerals, super green phytonutrients, whey protein and essential amino acids, prebiotics and digestive enzymes, good carbs, and low fats. Or you can purchase each supplement separately, at a cost of about $250 per month.
Retail price: $119.95 (~$4/shake)
Coach/discount price: $89.95

A few favorite photos...
Isn't life beautiful?! These photos were taken in Guatemala in March/April of 2011, where I traveled with a group of my DPT (Doctor of Physical Therapy) classmates to practice physical therapy with some of the local children and families!

We were fortunate enough to hike the second tallest volcano in Guatemala - Acatenango!
Guatemala was an unforgettable adventure, and is a place I plan to revisit frequently! The love you encounter in Guatemala is not comparable to any love you will ever find of people for their country, their work, and for life in general.
