Let's be honest. We all know, deep down, what we should be eating. We all know that we should be getting out six portions of veggies, our eight portions of fruit, that we should be drinking a glass of water every hour and a half and cutting out all processed food. Saying no to fast food, saying no to sugar, to alcohol, to cigarettes. Not eating anything our grandparents wouldn't have recognized, cooking at home, but most importantly, eating more veggies and fruits than we currently do. But do we? Looking at the national health statistics, it seems we don't. Despite knowing what's best, we persist in our bad habits. But if we recognize what's right, and there was an easy way to get all those nutritious and delicious goodies into our bodies without much effort, shouldn't we make an effort to do so? If so, the question then becomes how to get all that health in one glass. And the answer is Shakeology.

Shakeology is a very simple idea that performs a very complex task. The researchers and scientists hired by Beachbody to design a nutritious shake that bestowed incredible health benefits took years to concoct the perfect blend ...
... of nutrients. Meant to serve as a meal replacement shake, it's blend of amino acids, vitamins, minerals, probiotics, anti-oxidants and phytonutrients are designed to help eliminate free radicals and toxins, help you shed stored fat, reduce bad cholesterol, reduce oxidative stress and supplement your dietary intake with a wealth of health supplements.

What's in a glass of Shakeology? There's over 75 different ingredients, and they range from such common place items such as a galaxy of vitamins and basic minerals such as zinc, iron, copper and manganese to more exotic items such as flax seed, spirulina, blue green algae and pea fiber. There's nondairy probiotics such as lactobacillus acidophilus and streptococcus thermophilus, along with enzyme blends of amylase, papain, cellulase, lactase, lipase and more. Seventy five of such health enriching nutrients, enough that if I were to write them all out it would take the rest of the article to just list them.

To give you an idea about the philosophy and approach of Shakeology, check this out: the creators wanted it to be not only an incredibly healthy drink, but also a delicious one, so they added a sweetener. Now, they could have simply added sucrose (sugar), or any other commercially available and artificial sweetener of dubious health benefits, but instead they opted for the completely natural Stevia. Not heard of it? Google it when you get the chance. Ten times sweeter than sugar, and naturally occurring in a plant leaf, it's both delicious and completely natural for you, and can be used in minute quantities to deliver a delicious punch.

Shakeology is more than just a meal replacement shake. It's delivers a boatload of essential micro-nutrients, and in doing so, helps you compensate for all those veggies and fruits you might not be eating. There's a reason doctors and nutritionists make such a big deal about getting in your daily allowance, and with Shakeology, it's now incredibly easy, convenient, and delicious to do so too.
