As a Beachbody fitness Coach, I get the question a lot about why Shakeology is so expensive, but when you put it into perspective it’s quite a value. Shakeology is a value because of all the packed nutrition and extremely high quality ingredients. There’s 70+ really healthy ingredients. It’s your one-stop-shop for nutrition because it gives you:

 

1) 23 vitamins and minerals for the day: Most people are deficient. Some essential vitamins and minerals are hard to get through food and some are water-soluble which means they are disposed of quicker and need to be replenished on a regular basis. So Shakeology makes sure you’re getting all of the ones you need every day.

 

2) Prebiotics and digestive enzymes: These help promote healthy bacteria our bodies have a hard time producing and colonizing. These aid in healthy/consistent digestion and colon health. Prebiotics also aid your body in absorbing vitamins and minerals.

 

3) Antioxidants and phytonutrients: Our bodies oxidize like a rotting apple,a.k.a aging, with the help of free radicals. Antioxidants help slow the oxidation process by blocking those free radicals and help ward off degenerative diseases/conditions.

 

4) Protein and amino acids: Protein is essential for strong muscles and building and repairing them after working out. The protein in Shakeology is called whey protein isolate and is easily absorbed by the body.

 

Feeding your body all of these essential nutrients separately would cost A LOT more money! AND it’s really hard to eat everything you need to supply your body with to function at its peak, and Shakeology does this. When your body functions at its peak there are a lot of things that begin to happen:

 

1) your energy increases2) you lose weight3) your blood sugar levels balance4) you boost your immune system5) you live longer6) your body becomes regular7) you decrease inflammation in the body8) you reduce cravings (the whole reason we get cravings is because our bodies aren’t nutritionally satisfied)9) you have a healthy physical appearance….hair, nails, skin10) you organs function at optimum, efficient levels

 

So you can use Shakeology as either a meal replacement, a healthy snack, or an after-workout recovery shake!

I remember when I first decided to try it…..I thought the price was ridiculous, but I’ve found I’m reducing my cost of groceries every week because of using Shakeology. And after trying it once (I literally thought it was going to be a one-time-buy for me), I loved it so much I kept getting it. Actually, it was the reason I signed on as a coach—DISCOUNT!

You can also use a half scoop instead of a full scoop (the full scoop is pretty large!), if you’d like, and include other ingredients to fill up and make different recipes. This will make the product last 2 months instead of one. So that’s another idea as well. I, personally, usually use one full scoop almost everyday, so it lasts me typically around 30 days…maybe a little longer.

I highly recommend at least trying Shakeology….Beachbody is really great at providing customers with a 30-day money back guarantee, so you’ve got nothing to lose by giving it try!
