Boost your vitality and performance daily with super greens & lean protein!
Do you feel tired? Low on energy? Do you get sick frequently? Struggle to stay focused in that 3pm work meeting? If you're thinking... "yeah, that's me" then take a moment to think about how these few things might impact your day...
Are you late for work because you could barely drag yourself out of bed in the morning? If so, did that cause you to rush, skip breakfast or feel stressed? How did that affect the rest of your day?
Did your low energy and poor concentration cause you to make mistakes? How did that make you feel and did that affect your mood?
Or are you lying in bed at home with yet another cold or flu, feeling even more exhausted as you visualize your inbox filling up at work in your absence?
This doesn't have to be your reality! I want to encourage you to thrive and not just merely survive through each and every day. Food changes everything.... what we choose to put into our bodies not only has an affect on us physically but mentally too. Our energy level and brain function are both impacted by the nutrients we put (or don't put) into our body. This has a ripple affect on our daily activities in a big way and in order to keep up with our fast-paced, demanding lifestyles we need our health to be in tip-top shape.
There are so many ways to boost your health and support optimal body function but today I want to focus on the nutrition aspect and more specifically how greens and protein in particular can supercharge your health and ultimately supercharge your life!
The importance of Greens...
Dark, leafy greens are amazing for you because they are low in fat, high in fiber (which is great for digestion) and loaded with vitamins and minerals! They are especially rich in folic acid, which promotes the production of new cells... so say hello to glowing skin, shiny hair and strong nails! They are also packed full of vitamins A, C & K and contain minerals like iron, calcium, potassium and magnesium. Greens are alkalizing, meaning that if you consume them on a regular basis they can help to regulate acidity in your body and maintain a healthy pH level. Eating greens also helps to cleanse your liver and detox your body of any nasty toxins.
If you want to take your health to the next level start adding a serve of greens powder into your daily routine. I personally like to add it into my breakfast smoothie. Greens powder is a nutritionally dense and highly concentrated dose of super greens that are easily digested and quickly absorbed into the body.
