I don't need no stinkin' water!

Yes! You need water (and more) to keep
the HUMAN engine running.

Our HUMAN engines need more than just high octane fuel to keep up optimum performance.  It needs water and re-hydration to keep the engine cooled and running efficiently.  As I am training for yet, another 60 mile walk as well as my first 5K (as a runner) it is important to keep fluid levels at an optimum.  During heavy exercise it is SO important to maintain, not only your water levels but also the body chemistry needed for optimum performance.

• Your body needs a way to minimize fluid loss during activity, or even daily doings when it is hot or extremely dry. (Winters up in the North would be an example of an extremely dry time. -You know who you are) :-)
• Your body needs a way to maintain steady blood-glucose levels to sustain energy output and to increase stamina.
• Your body needs increased endurance for better athletic performance.

I have found, use, and recommend a clinically proven way to hydrate better than water during heavy training. This product has MORE electrolytes and provides MORE energy than the leading hydration drink purchased from your local grocer to improve my athletic performance. (My hubby even asks for it when he is out working in the yard or on one of the vehicles.)  

In fact, this product is very similar to the drink our astronauts consume while in space and when returning from long stints in orbit to re-hydrate and maintain consciousness upon re-entry to our atmosphere. :-)

Contact us for more information!  Maybe even a sample.

I stand, walk, run, and parent behind my word, so does my vendor.

I'm a MEAT EATER!

Protein!  

"I'm a meat eater, I get my protein from the meat I eat."

I used to think I was "good" in the protein department.  I eat chicken, steak, pork chops and ham, I get plenty of protein.  My metabolism seemed to be slowing down and I kept fluctuating in my weight and clothing sizes.

I have since learned otherwise.  While it is true, I do get protein from those sources, it is not an easily digested and assimilated (absorbed) protein.  There is more waste produced when I eat these sources and less absorbed into my system than when I get my protein from a plant source. When I began using these plant based proteins, my energy sky rocketed and I began losing the weight, easily.

"33% of Women are not getting enough protein"

 ~David Heber MD Director of UCLA center for Human Nutrition

(estimates are that 25% of men are the same)

Protein is important in muscle production and retention. When you don't get enough protein, you aren't getting enough Leucine, an amino acid building block of muscle. When you don't get enough Leucine you get a buildup of subcuteanous fat, that fat particularly in the abdomen.

(Deficiency in Leucine, in part, = Thick Middles)

Protein is important in regulating blood sugar,
hunger pangs & the cravings!

In studies, 

Leucine caused a 16% DECREASE in calorie intake -

81% in between meal snack

50% energy increase in less than 48 hours!

In the clinical studies of the Shakes I use, participants maintained 100% muscle mass while reducing their weight and their clothing size - this means they were BURNING FAT!

Contact me, Tess, to get more information about this complete system and how it could work for you! It worked for me 5 years ago and is still working...
