Getting Fit for Thirteen?





Happy New Year! Are you still chomping your way through the Quality Street, or has the new year resolve stepped in, forcing you to step away from the biscuit tin and step up to a fresh you? Detoxing and getting fit in the new year is a common goal for many in January, and this months blog will show you how Arbonne can help you succeed.

Whether it's weight loss, gym training or general well being, Arbonne's stunning range of Fit and Nutrition Essentials can assist....

But firstly, you may be wondering why would you choose Arbonne to supplement your detox? What’s the difference to just drinking plain old water, or picking something off the shelf in the high street?

Arbonne uses PURE, ROBUST and ACTIVE botanicals, formulated to ensure maximum ABSORPTION and EFFECTIVENESS. Did you know, you aren't what you eat necessarily....you are what you absorb. Arbonne nutrition is:

*Gluten Free
*Free from artificial colours/sweeteners/additives
*No cholesteral
*No trans or saturated fats
*Vegan**

**(were you aware, as humans we digest ingredients derived from plants far more easily than animal or animal by products. For example there is no whey protein in the Arbonne protein shakes. Using a pea protein, this type of protein is digested easily, is absorbed faster and your body is able to utilise a large amount of the protein from each serving)

I have pulled together some key features of the range to suit the detoxing body
 
Digestion aid - £40
Detox Tea £12
Nutrition bar fruit - £19
Nutrition bar chocolate -£19
Protein shake vanilla or chocolate - £48
Immunity boosters - £56
Sater bottle -£5
Fibre booster - £28

Total Value = £227.00

Existing clients enjoy 20% off, consultants 35%. Brand new clients, take advantage of a fabulous offer by choosing to buy via the ultimate value pack and pay only £125.00 for all of the above!

So, why have I chosen these items from the range?

1/ Your digestive health is intergral to your overall health - healthy gut, happy person!

Digestionaid – An anytime drink, simply mix into cold water/juice/squash -balances the gut with pre-biotics, probiotics and enzymes. Promotes digestion and nutrient uptake, helps decrease bloated feelings and assists with the absorption of vitamins fromthe other nutrition ranges and your diet.

Infusion Tea– An anytime hot beverage - Replace coffee and caffeinated teas forthis infusion. Not only will it assist with a healthy gut (no dairy andcontains licqorice) but also compliments weight loss as it contains green tea and assists hydration to promote the cleansing of the body. Also contains milk thistle, great for detoxification, supporting and repairing the liver and kidney function.

Fibre Booster - Sprinkle over cereal or mix into the protein shake - provides almost 50% of your daily fibre needs, helping the gut remain...."regular" and asissts with weight loss, because it keeps you fuller for longer.

2/ Your daily vitamin update is essential

Immunityboosters - Daily drink - If you were to try and eat the amount of vitamins in this drink, you would need to consume enough fruit and vegtables equivalent to 5000 calories !!! This drink is jam packed full of goodness! Key ingredients that assist with detoxing are: milkthistle - for detoxification andliver repair, akaiberry - promotes weight lossand detoxification, guarana - promotes weight loss, fights fatigue,increases metabolism, yerbe mate, fights fatigue and good for weight loss.

Nutritionbar - geat snack -  low calorie snack thatsatisfies a sweet tooth craving, is filling and extremely nutritious – 15 vitamins and minerals. It is a fantastic alternative if you are beating off  sweet cravings or if you are all fruitand vegetabled out!

Proteinshakes - a training snack or meal replacement. My favourite!!! I personally use these when I am in gym training. You see muscledefinition and feel stronger, quicker**. I personally use them as a snack drinking one within an hour of working out – recommendation for muscle repairis 20g of protein within 60 minutes. Its a fantastic way to beatoff post work out hunger and even though I use as a snack, I will generally eat less inmy next meal. Some people use the protein shake as a meal replacement*** for breakfast and lunch when on a weight loss programme, followed by a light evening meal. It is also packed with vitamins and minerals and offers you 15% of your daily nutrition needs in one shake.

*** a case study with an Arbonne client, reported a weight loss of 16 pounds over a four week duration, feeling full and well throughout.

For best results, I would recommend using these essential range products in conjunction with the Arbonne Detox Spa range, eating healthily, a limited alcohol intake and drinking plenty of water. The snippet information provided is relevant specifically to detoxing, however the products shown, have many other fantastic ingredients and health benefits, not listed here. A very happy and healthy 2013 everyone!
