Can you afford Shakeology?
The question really is can you afford not to drink Shakeology?
In today’s fast paced, “eat on the go” society, more young people are suffering from heart attack and stroke than ever before in history. With more to do in less time, people are turning to fast food and processed, packaged foods for the sake of convenience. Americans cook on average 30 minutes a day – less than any developed country. (Yahoo News article: Fast Food Nation). It’s no wonder that 1/3 of Americans are obese.
A lack of regular exercise only further exacerbates the problem. The combination of poor nutrition and lack of exercise leads to elevated blood pressure and cholesterol levels and an increased risk of heart disease, stroke and obesity.
A USA Today article reports that if Americans continue to pack on the pounds, obesity will cost U.S. healthcare $344 billion in medical-related expenses by 2018.
Shakeology – The Super Food
Most people don’t get enough nutrients from our daily diet for the body to function properly and in homeostasis. (WebMD Eating Essentials and 7 Nutrients Your Diet May Be Missing).
What makes Shakeology such a “super food” is the ultra high quality ingredients that were hand selected from around the world based on their potency and bioavailability (the ability to deliver the nutrients your body needs).
More than a weight loss meal replacement or protein shake, Shakeology helps your body gently eliminate toxins that have built up over time from eating fast food and other high processed foods, enabling your body to better absorb the power house of essential nutrients delivered from Shakeology.
Unlike other “nutrition” drinks on the market, Shakeology is completely free of artificial ingredients and chemicals and is made from over 70 healthy, whole food “super foods” like:
- Maca root (a Peruvian herb known to improve energy and mental clarity),
- Ashawangandha root (boosts the immune system, reduces swelling, reduces blood sugar and eases anxiety and stress), and
- Wheatgrass (strengthens the immune system, detoxifies the body, and wards off disease).
Shakeology also contains digestive enzymes and prebiotics (the good bacteria) which eliminate toxins from the body, essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals to curb cravings and allow your body to shed stored fat.
Many of Shakeology’s fruit and vegetable sources have been chosen for their high concentration of healthy natural substances known as phytonutrients, including flavonoids, polyphenols, anthocyanins, and catechins. These substances have antioxidant properties, meaning they help get rid of molecules known as free radicals, which damage cells and may be a key component of the aging process.
With all these healthy, disease fighting ingredients, it’s no wonder doctors have deemed Shakeology “the healthiest meal of the day”.

The Dollars and Sense of Shakeology
At $4 a serving, replacing one meal a day with Shakeology is much more cost effective than anything you’d typically eat when you go out to lunch. An average lunch costs at least $6 ($180 a month), unless you’re getting a happy meal and then you’re just trading artery clogging saturated fats for what you save in dollars.
Shakeology offers a much healthier and cost effective alternative. Substituting Shakeology for coffee and donuts for breakfast or fast food for lunch saves you money and infuses your body with essential vitamins and nutrients that boosts energy, improves digestion and regularity, reduces cravings and keeps you satiated between meals. You’d be hard pressed to find this much nutrition for $4 a serving anywhere. Plus, you’ll be happy to know, it’s backed by a 30 day money back guarantee, so there’s absolutely no risk in trying it.
