Astaxanthin
I hear and read about supplements every day. This article from Natural News I read a while back, ordered the product and I have to say am enjoying the benefits. At the bottom of the article is an ebook to download which gives you all the information regarding the benefits of Astaxanthin you would ever want to know. If you got to http://www.vitacost.com/ the product is very affordable and one I would recommend.

Are all Protein Powders created equal?
There are so many protein powders out there these days and its important to distinguish the good ones from the bad. After a hard workout, added to a smoothie, or as a meal replacement many of us choose to throw in a scoop of whey protein along with fruits, juices, yogurts, etc...The fact of the matter is that they are not all created equal and picking the right one from the large selection out there can sometimes be very confusing. Dr. Mercola from http://www.mercola.com/ has written many articles on this subject and I think its important to point out some highlights. "Picking the right form of whey protein can make all the difference in how you feel. As we age our bodies loses their ability to produce critical amino acids -- the essential proteins you need for energy production, immune actions and protein buildup in the muscle. Therefore, the need to supplement with these amino acids increases as you get older and increases even more in times of high physical stress, like after a workout, or when recovering from injury or illness." This is where a good whey protein can come in. Whey protein contains all the essential amino acids. Plus it boasts the highest protein quality rating among all proteins. Thus, it is a complete protein.
Benefits include:
Do yourself a favor and make sure you're buying a whey protein powder that has all the right qualities.
Personally, I enjoy drinking my Isagenix Isalean shakes that are made with whey protein powder. There is no better way for me to begin my day or finish a hard workout than with an amazing, yummy and cold protein shake.
Isagenix has made it their business to come up with a shake that is undenatured (not heated so nutrients remain in tact). The whey comes from cows that are grass-fed on crops that contain no herbicides or pesticides. They come in two flavors, Isalean vanilla and chocolate which are meal replacement shakes containing 23 grams of protein each and are complete balanced meal and then Isapro which is just a protein source and great for athletes or individuals who are trying to add more protein to their diet. Both are great for weight loss and the Isapro has helped many get over the weight-loss plateaus. Other benefits include:
Benefits include:
- Supports your immune health
- Boosts your energy
- Supports your joint and muscle health
- Supports your beneficial gut bacteria
- Promotes your muscle strength, endurance and recovery
- Protects all your tissues' cells via its antioxidant properties
- Provides critical amino acids and proteins for overall optimal health
- Supports your body's optimal metabolic rate and fat burning level

- Wheat-Free
The shakes also contains Ionic Alfalfa™, which is a proprietary blend of 70 super-charged minerals, trace minerals and alfalfa juice. Active enzymes in each serving helps maximize the absorption of key nutrients.
I'll say it, I think they are AMAZING! It's going to be 2 years in August and I can tell you that there has not been many days that I haven't had atleast one shake (not including my cleanse days of course). For more information on the shakes click on this link.

Most clients have been known to say they miss their shakes if they don't have one. I couldn't agree more!
As with anything make good choices when it comes to your nutrition. What you put in your body matters. As I always say, your body is a miracle if you give it what it needs.

Getting to and Maintaining a Healthy Weight
For most of my clients and most people these days getting to a healthy weight can be a struggle but also maintaining a healthy weight is a challenge. Living a healthy lifestyle is hard work so making informed decisions about nutrition is so important. It's about lifestyle changes, making good food choices and of course keeping the balance between enjoying food but not going overboard and overeating. What works for one client doesn't always work for the next but the overall plan can be simple. The support that you get from me can be so important especially at the beginning of your journey to health as it's so much easier to slip back into your comfort zone.
What has made my practice even better is having Isagenix to fall back on with so many of my clients. I have put almost 100 people on the products in the last year and the results speak for themselves. The testimonials are endless. From the weight loss and inches lost, the structure that is so needed at the beginning and the energy they feel from all the great ingredients in the products. Every story is amazing!
I've taken many on tours of Whole Foods to help them see what other foods they can be trying and spent time with one on one sessions supporting them through this time. My program is less about specific meal plans but more about introducing them to healthier options and opening their eyes to what is out there. I want to coach them through whatever struggles they have to get them to where they want to be.
Not only is there an emphasis on Nutrition but also on getting them into a regular exercise program that works for them (or restructuring one for some who are stuck in one that isn't working anymore). I have seen so many clients going from not working out at all to suddenly spending 4-6 days a week in the gym. Suddenly after feeding their bodies the right foods the desire to be at the gym becomes stronger. It's less about being a personal trainer and more about being a workout partner. It's about teaching them about all the different equipment and changing their routine. It is also about actually getting on the machine next to them, keeping them company and doing the work with them if needed.
There are so many tools needed to maintain a healthy weight. Start by finding friends and family to support you, educating yourself, writing things down in a food journal, and most of all being committed to make the changes for good.
For the next couple of weeks my goal is to blog more. I want the information out there with regards to Isagenix and so much more. I am almost at my 2 year anniversary with Isagenix products myself. I myself made the decision to make Isagenix a part of my life and it has certainly helped me maintain a healthy weight and lifestyle. That coupled with making healthy choices and exercising regularly and I feel great. Let me help you get there as well.

MAKE THE SHIFT
I recently received a newsletter from Susan Sly. Susan is an author, speaker, self made millionaire and mother to four beautiful children. I am taking the liberty of passing pieces of the article on to you in this blog. The article is very timely for me and how I have been feeling lately. I think spring has something to do with it. It’s a time to clear out the clutter of the winter, time to make some changes. There is so much around me needing "cleaning" including my work, my home and my family that it has left me feeling like I just don't know where to begin. Bottom-line, the clutter seems so overwhelming so why not just ignore it all or stay in a place of comfort and do what I need to in order to get by. Most importantly, the past couple of weeks I’ve been stuck not taking the necessary steps to shift where my business is going. While I am speaking with all my clients about beginning a NEW DAY I don’t know that I was listening to my own advice. Always easier to give advice to others I guess. That being said I do know one thing. Until I take the steps, however small to make the changes necessary to clear out the clutter and get my business back on track then nothing positive will come my way. I need to be stay in a place of gratitude for ALL of it and appreciate all that I have. And so I cut and paste the following article. Take these words as we go into spring and truly rid yourself of all the clutter that surrounds you physically and/or in your mind. Make the shift in your life whether with diet or your work and get ready to make everyday an AMAZING NEW DAY. I know I am ready, are you?
Many people walk around in day to day existence operating from a place that is indicative of what has been and not what is; this only serves to send a conflicting message to the world which says that they are not ready for the goodness which they have been granted and instead operate as though they are stuck in their original paradigm. How many women do you know, who have lost weight, continue to shop for and hold onto clothes in their original size? How many people, when they begin making an extra $500/month in a home based business continue to come from a lack mentality? The answer is that the vast majority of people are living as though nothing has changed and all this does is create a reflection back that they are not indeed ready to shift.
Do you realize that over 90% of lottery winners spend all of their winnings within a few short years? Do you know that over 90% of dieters regain all of their lost weight and more? As a society we will often choose to stay comfortably uncomfortable and revert to our old, ineffective ways of being. The reality is that whatever habits got us into a place of poor financial judgment, bad health or a destructive relationship will surely get us there again unless we change within ourselves. Dr. Wayne Dyer says that ‘we attract who we are.’ I would ascertain that what he means is that until we shift that within us which is negative and unproductive we will continue to attract negative and unproductive circumstances.
So how does one shift? The most imperative thing is that you celebrate and stand in gratitude for all milestones. If you have increased your household income by even an extra $100/month then celebrate that extra $1200/year. If your body has shifted to be leaner then you must stand in gratitude. Until you recognize the change that is occurring you will never hold onto it. I have seen thousands of people who make progress only to self sabotage and go back into circumstances that are either on par or worse than they were before. Standing in gratitude or celebrating does not equal complacency; it simply sends a signal that you appreciate and accept what is happening. When something changes for the better make a decision to change with it. When I went from a women’s size 14 to a four, I got rid of all of the size 8-14 clothes. This sent a message that I was done with that part of my life and ready to move on.

PROTANDIM
I have recently been introduced to an amazing product called Protandim. As a health coach I am introduced to many products. I am always open to hearing new ways to keep myself healthy in a natural and healthy way. Unfortunately we live in a very toxic world, herbicides, pesticides, pollutants, etc. and as a result we build up free radicals in our bodies. Free radicals are the molecules that outside our body cause rust in metals or cause browning in apples. In the human body, free radicals hurt our cells and are a significant factor in aging. Free radical damage in the body is known as oxidative stress.
Oxidative stress is the result of metabolic wear-and-tear seen in aging and is said to give a foothold to many of the undesirable effects of aging, ie. cardiovascular disease, improper immune function and overall wellness. Google oxidative stress and see so much more. More than 40,000 published articles all highlight the magnitude of the problem.
Our bodies don't effectively eliminate oxidants with "direct" antioxidants from food and supplements, but rather with antioxidant enzymes. Unlike direct oxidants like Vitamin C, E and A which can actually become pro-oxidant and produce the very free radicals that we need to get rid of, enzymes within our bodies offer pure antioxidant protection without producing oxidants.
Dr. Joe McCord, Lifevantage Director of Science, is a pioneer of free radical biology and an expert in oxidative stress. He is the formulator of Protandim.
Without going into much more let me outline the 10 Key benefits.
1. Scientifically proven: Protandim has been the focus of several clinical trials.
2. Superior Antioxidant Power: Protandim can deliver exponentially more antioxidant activity by stimulating enzymes in our body and killing off free radicals millions at a time.
3. Reduced Oxidative Stress: Protandim is the ONLY supplement clinically proven to completely eliminate the age-dependent increase in oxidative stress, reducing oxidative stress levels, regardless of age, to those of a 20 year old.
4. Healthy Immune Support
5. Enhanced Overall Health
6. Anti-Aging Ability: Clinically proven to reduce cell aging by an average of 40%.
7. Increased Glutathione: produces a 300% increase in glutathione, which is a key antioxidant and anti-aging compound. (google glutathione)
8. One of a Kind: Its unique formulation, based on boosting antioxidants enzymes, leads the market in fighting oxidative stress.
9. Proprietary and Patented: The company owns two patents with a third on its way. Its a proprietary blend of five natural ingredients owned by LifeVantage.
10. Leading Edge: The revolutionary formulation behind Protandim is a result of decades of research and work done by Dr. Joe McCord.
We are hearing more and more every day about antioxidants, free radicals and the need to decrease them in our bodies to live a longer, healthier life. I think LifeVantage has it right. Obviously ABC did as well as they did a story on Primetime Live a while back.
