The fitness industry is loaded with meal replacement options and unfortunately, most are ineffective at doing what they are supposed to over a long period of time. Enter Shakeology. Shakeology, by Beachbody is a new type of meal replacement shake that has proven itself effective in a 90-day independent study. How can it help you lose weight, maintain muscle and overall improve your health?
Shakeology Ingredients
Though it may appear to be a simple powder, what is in each dose of it is complex. Shakeology ingredients consist of 70+ high-quality ingredients that give your body more than just nutrients – it gives you overall well-being. Some ingredients include:
· Proteins
· Essential amino acids
· Prebiotics
· Digestive enzymes
· Antioxidants
· Phytonutrients
· Vitamins and minerals
Proteins and essential amino acids help your body build and repair muscles from exercise while also reducing hunger and craving throughout the day – all of which helps you maintain your healthy weight. The prebiotic and digestive enzymes help promote your body’s overall digestion, boost the immune system and increase nutrient absorption so that your body can burn and utilize the calories you eat faster and more effectively. Antioxidants and phytonutrients have already proven themselves effective in overall health and do so as well in Shakeology ingredients by providing your body with increased longevity, improved immune system, decreased inflammation and ridding your body of harmful free radicals.
Though the beneficial Shakeology ingredients are important, what is more important is what Shakeology doesn’t contain, such as:
· No caffeine
· No refined sugar
· No artificial coloring or flavorings
· Gluten-free
Though the shakes appear in different colors, the classic brown or green shake colors come from all natural colorants that include:
· Herbal powder
· Grass powder
· Vegetable powder
· Spirulina
· Berry powder
How Shakeology Works
Shakeology allows the body to eliminate toxins and absorb nutrients more efficiently than it does on its own. Digestive enzymes and prebiotics give the body a chance to eliminate toxins that build up naturally in your digestive tract. Individuals can curb cravings with the Shakeology plan and help their body shed fat that has stored up and burn calories through regular, healthy exercise.
