Do you really know what your eating?

Just an insight to why we use our protein shakes we use and not any other brands out there. We are not experts in nutrition but on our health journey have tried many products and learnt a thing or two about the ones we should avoid.  We urge everyone to research what that are ingesting and question its origin. Please don't just assume these product are healthy because they are labelled so and have great marketing. Many of these products are the source of illness and cancers.

These protein shake companies have products filled with things we can't even pronounce not to mention where the origin of where the products derive from. Some of the products ingredients have manifested from unnatural sources and places where you couldn't imagine and not even fit for human consumption.

We are not perfect and still working on removing these things from our diet they are hidden in lots of everyday food so it can be very difficult to get away from it. 

One example of a nasty ingredient is SACRULOSE an artificial sweetener its quite common ingredient.

For example, there are reports of the following after eating sucralose:
  • Gastrointestinal problems
  • Seizures, dizziness and migraines
  • Blurred vision
  • Allergic reactions
  • Blood sugar increases and weight gain

 
We counted one health protein shake have over 15 or more ingredients of what we are not really sure they are and it could take a whole day of researching. If we personally are going to use an artificial product that's not in its natural form we try and use ones with as less ingredients as possible and ones we know of.   Here are the shakes we use.
7 Ingredients listed all natural sources
1 Ingredient listed good old fashioned hemp



If your interested in real clean eating and tidying up your nutrition and a more natural approach to life do some research. Check out our friends Facebook Page The Naturally You Coach  her website here.

FINAL THOUGHT.....

 
Think of it this way, natural products derived straight from the earth are naturally in tune with your body and manmade products just aren't in sync thus manifesting it self in abnormalities in your bodies though ailments and disease that you are unaware of that look like common sickness.  Its entirely up to you what you decide to put in your bodies but we are aspiring to get to a place where we are living a fit, healthy natural life.
