As maybe one of the pickiest eaters on the planet, I had pretty much convinced myself (up to the very first sip) that I was going to hate it! You can imagine my surprise when just the opposite happened. It's still hard to believe that I actually love something that's so healthy for me. I am fairly certain that if a world-famous chef were to put some of the ingredients in Shakeology on a plate in front of me, I wouldn't think (even for a second) about touching them. I am so happy that everyday I get to give my body that natural goodness in a tasty shake instead!!!
Being such a picky eater and disliking so many vegetables and kinds of foods in general, I knew I was deficient in so many key nutrients needed to fuel a healthy active body (and mind). I often made unhealthy choices...sometimes even thinking they were good for me!!! For example...stopping at Duncan Donuts (not kidding...for a long time) and getting a Low Fat Blueberry Muffin and coffee on my way to work. It was quick, easy...and low in fat right!!! Why not I thought.Then, before I knew it, I was hungry not long after and craving more. I was not giving my body what it needed. It was an endless battle of working out and then just eating worthless calories back again. I wasn't getting anywhere despite my well-meaning, but ill-informed efforts with fitness and food. The nutrition piece and friendly guidance were two elements that I was missing all along.
When I began drinking Shakeology my intension was to try it for several months and then stop once I reached my goal. At the time, I was struggling to loose the unwanted pounds, and that was proving to be very difficult. Once I added the Shakeology drink into the mix with my workouts, the weight fell off. My confidence increased and I began to feel better, not only on the outside, but on the inside, too. Drinking Shakeology sustains me, helps stabilize my low blood sugar and certainly keeps me energized. My anxiety levels have diminished and personal (negative) mood swings have improved, dramatically. And, as an exciting bonus...there are no more calorie-crammed cravings!
Before Shakeology, there were so many days I'd feel lethargic and tired...but, I don't feel that way anymore! I had no idea how this dense, nutritious, superfood-shake would change my life and how much better I would truly feel every day. It's now been over two years, and I cannot imagine a day without my chocolate shake. My only regret is that I didn't know about Beachbody fitness and Shakeology nutrition sooner. Combined they will continue to change my life for the better in every way possible.
Do you ever feel like there is not enough time in the day? I often do! Most weeks my mornings feel hectic and I am left with little time to make a healthy quick meal. Does this sound familiar? If so...this is your answer! There are many inspirational stories from people sharing how Shakeology has transformed their lives, just like it has for me. But I am sure you are still wondering what makes it so healthy and what it can do for you, right! Let's dive more into that now.
WHAT IS SHAKEOLOGY?
Shakeology is a comprehensive nutritional shake that provides a wide variety of healthy nutrients in a low-calorie formula. Whether you use it as a meal replacement for weight loss or simply to ensure your body gets all the nutrients it needs for optimal health, Shakeology takes the guesswork out of nutrition. Let's take a peek at the Chart below!

IS IT A PROTEIN SHAKE?
Yes...and no! While Shakeology has a high quality protein component it is far more than that. Shakeology has over 70 greens, fruits and veggies-that's the nutritional equivalent of FIVE plates of salad in each serving! No don't get me wrong, I love a good salad, but FIVE a day, EVERY day??? I just know that no matter how good that might be for me I just couldn't keep up with it! Shakeology makes it very easy to get all the vital nutrients you need while still controlling calories. Truth be told, the majority of people are WAY MORE nutrient deficient than they are Protein deficient. So why just stop at a protein shake?
WHY DRINK SHAKEOLOGY?
Carl Daikeler, CEO & Co-Founder of Beachbody shares his thoughts in this video below! Check it out!!
ARE the macronutrients 'better' than the shake I'm already drinking?
A lot of people look at just 3 things on a label: the protein, carbs and fats. There is WAY more to reading a label than that! As long as the protein, carbs and fats are in an acceptable RANGE, what you REALLY need is to look at is the quality of all OTHER ingredients, where they come from and what they do for your internal
ISN'T IT BETTER TO EAT WHOLE FOODS?
Yes! That is why Shakeology IS a whole food! Unlike many 'processed fake' foods, each of Shakeology's superfoods has a unique way of being "preserved". It's a very difficult process to dry a food out enough that it can be ground and stored in a bag., but not so much that it's precious nutritional enzymes are killed and eliminating it's nutritional value. Each ingredient in Shakeology undergoes this careful process so that you get all the benefits of the whole food nutrition, without the hassle and expense of importing and consuming all the 70 ingredients and juicing them every day!
WHERE DO THESE SUPER-FOOD INGREDIENTS COME FROM?
This less than 5 minute video is one I really love. Darin Olein, the Co-Creator and Ingredient Hunter of Shakeology shares his journey with us while finding the best super-food nutrition possible on the planet. We get to drink it every day!!! I am so grateful.

Anyone who thinks Shakeology is expensive simply does not understand it's REAL VALUE. In a day and age where it costs $5 for a cup of coffee, most people would agree that paying $4 for a complete and comprehensive meal like Shakeology is a BARGAIN! Remember too that Shakeology also includes all of the daily vitamins for a typical adult (or child), so you are getting that as well. In the case you do not like it, which is doubtful, Shakeology has a bottom-of-the-bag guarantee that allows you to try it for 30 days. If returned you will get a full refund (less S&H). It can even be returned if the bag is empty!!!
Now granted, most of us do not buy an entire month's groceries at one time, so when you multiply the daily cost of Shakeology out it can seem like a lot, BUT, when you consider that Shakeology is REPLACING one of those meals you'd need to purchase from the grocery store (or restaurant, or fast food) I actually deduct my monthly Shakeology from my grocery budget. Its literally the least expensive AND the most dense nutritious daily meal my family consumes. For the price, I can not duplicate its number of high quality ingredients and nutrients.
ISN'T SHAKEOLOGY JUST FOR PEOPLE WHO NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT?
Definitely not! Remember, Shakeology is a NUTRITIONAL shake that EVERYONE can benefit from! So while it CAN be an extremely valuable tool for those looking to lose weight, its just as valuable a tool for those looking to boost their immune system, regain energy, recovery from illness or even GAIN weight! Shakeology is about HEALTH. When you put the RIGHT nutrients in your body that it needs to develop, heal, recover, repair and thrive, you will ultimately have MORE energy, LESS cravings, and feel better therefore you eat less and become more active.
