So being sick with some virus flared up my Ulcerative Colitis (AGAIN) and I have not been able to workout all week because of this. So, I really wanted to be sure to build my body up again but I do not want to have too many calories since I am not working them off. So I have to make the most of what I put into my body. Of course, I still drink my Shakeology everyday for energy and nutrition. But what am I really drinking to gain this energy in this feel good drink???
Once you order Shakeology home direct you receive a Shakeology Journal which tells you so many interesting things about how the ingredients were found and what they do. So, I want to tell you about a few that I am fasinated by in a few different blogs because I feel each ingredient deserves the spotlight.
So feeling sick and knowing that Shakeology has prebiotics, digestive enzymes and super foods was perfect for my system to get what it needs to be able to heal and get what it needs. After reading I found out about Astragalus plant which is found in china. I found that it is used in Shakeology because the plant is shown to "strengthen muscle mass and helps improve your metabolism, circulation, and breathing while it helps speed up healing too". In China, they have been using this root for centuries because "it helps strengthens your immune system, increases energy and vitality, and helps you young for what seems like forever". According to the Journal of Rejuventation Research it shows that Astragalus extract can help enhace telomere strength (telomere loss is the primary cause of aging).
I was sold!!! I went online last night and ordered Astragalus Tea....if it helps rebuild my immune system while also keeping me look younger....why not drink more of it!!!
So getting this ingredient alone is worth Shakeology but wait until I tell you more about the other wonders that make this shake so beneficial....know I know why some people call this Amazing Shakeology.....because it really is amazing to see the blend of ingredients that make up this shake and the benefits of each.
Want to buy Shakeology for yourself??? www.beachbodycoach.com/FitwithMeliss
Here is something I found on the internet on it:

Orally, Huang Qi/Astragalus is used for treating the common cold and upper respiratory infections; to strengthen and regulate the immune system; and to increase the production of blood cells particularly in individuals with chronic degenerative disease or in individuals with cancer undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy. It is also used orally for chronic nephritis and diabetes. Astragalus is also used orally as an antibacterial and antiviral; a tonic; liver protectant; anti-inflammatory; antioxidant; and as a diuretic, vasodilator, or hypotensive agent.
