Post Work out Shake, Protein Powder, Meal Replacement, FAV Meal of My Day



What is Shakeology?

Nope it's not a funky, phallic looking fitness gimmic that guarantees an arm work out when you shake it. HA! It’s the healthiest meal of the day and you can get in a glass all mixed up in just a couple of minutes. I am often asked “What is Shakeology?” and my general answer usually is that Shakeology is, for most people, the healthiest thing you will put in your body all day. Don’t take my word for it, check out the Shakeology ingredient lists....packed with over 70 per packet!!!

What is Shakeology? Is it just another protein shake? The answer is no! Shakeology has 15-17 grams of protein in it but as you can see from the Shakeology ingredients lists above that Shakeology is not just a protein shake. I challenge you to take this ingredients list to your local health food store with a smoothie bar and tell them to mix this up for you. They will probably have to charge you $15-$40 bucks a glass. It is hard to find this kind of nutrition all on one plate and SUPER simple to make. I have been drinking Shakeology for a few months now and I love it. The main thing I’ve noticed is that drinking Shakeology has really cut down my cravings. I really do not crave anything anymore on the days I have my shake…even during that time, ladies! J I still splurge sometimes but I really do not get those cravings for brownies, sweet potato fries, or mac N cheese anymore (which are my go to cheat meals).

What’s in Shakeology?

It would really take you some time to put together Shakeology as you can see from the ingredients lists above but lucky for you it is all done for you. Shakeology provides you with a powerhouse of nutrition and here are some of the key nutrient groups below:

  • Vitamins and minerals for optimal health
  • Antioxidants and phytonutrients to help you fight free radicals that results in degenerative disease
  • Prebiotics and Probiotics that will aid you in the improvement or regularity, digestion and nutrient absorption
  • Protein and amino acids that will help with lean muscle building and reduce your craving
  • Fiber that promotes ‘regularity’
  • Healthy sugars to replenish lost glycogen stores post work out and to stabilize blood sugar levels – IT IS AN APPROVED LOW GLYCEMIC PRODUCT for diabetics. CLICK HERE TO VIEW VIDEO to learn about the GI and how Shakeology will fit into your diet.
This 1 minute clip details all of the ingredients it took to put together this amazing drink...all in 1 serving! To watch, CLICK HERE...What's in Shakeology?

TRY SHAKEOLOGY NOW


I guess when people say “what is Shakeology?” I should say that it is different for everyone. I can show you what to ingredients are but if you ask ten different people “what is Shakeology?”, you will most likely get ten different answers. Most people will have their own story to tell about Shakeology, how it has helped them, and each story is unique in it’s own way. So the best way for you to know “what is Shakeology?”, would be to order Shakeology, try it for yourself and see what Shakeology is to you and how it can help you. Many have lost tens of pounds in the first month alone. A personal friend of mine lost 80 after 90 days of drinking it every day, combined with P90X. You can try it risk free since you’re entitled to a refund in the first 30 days if for whatever reason, you’re unhappy with it, even if all that’s left is the empty bag. I can also set you up on FREE shipping when you order on my monthly auto ship program. And changing your order (trying a new flavor, altering the date of shipment, CC # etc) is a simple phone call. I get REALLY excited, like Christmas excited, when I see my Shakeology delivery waiting anxiously for me at my doorstep.

How Shakeology Works

  • Ingredients derived from whole-food sources deliver the daily vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients your body needs to curb cravings, allowing it to shed stored fat.
  • More than 20 different antioxidants and phytonutrients help reduce free radical damage that can lead to heart disease, heart attacks, high blood pressure, and stroke.
  • Fiber, prebiotics, and digestive enzymes help your body gently eliminate toxins more efficiently and promote better absorption of nutrients.

I did a cleanse and feel great...NOW WHAT? How to STAY clean, trim and energetic AFTER the fact

HELLO MY CLEAN FRIENDS!

Don't leave me hangin', I’ve been dying to know...

HOW ARE YOU FEELING? How did the cleanse go for you? Did you lose a few pounds? Your mind? Hehee! Have your eating habits improved? Most have reported that and our Bowel Bootcamp averaged 7 pounds lost. WAY TO GO!

If you haven’t already, may I ask you a huge favor that you post on my FB wall indicating your experience with it? My goal for my page, new website and soon to be fan page, is that I will implant a platform for sharing on a myriad of health topics such as vitamins, weight loss, pain free living, fitness, yoga, health reform, pregnant moms lifestyle, kids health, and more. My interests span as wide as your efforts that encompass ‘healthy living’ and our nations access to alternative health outlets. I encourage you to follow me along my tenacious journey to improve these neglected facets of health care.

CLICK HERE to visit my new website & fitness and wellness store

CLICK HERE if you're reading this, have not yet done a cleanse yourself, would like to, or want to share this cleanse kit with others

After your cleanse, you will or should have received a reminder to reorder your probiotics and aloe. Remember, THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART ABOUT CLEANSING…’staying’ clean. You, your body and your digestive system have worked HARD to detox your system of chemicals, poisons, toxins, mucous, etc that ages, fatigues, bloats and stifles you from thriving at your fullest potential! DO NOT FORGET the maintenance part of cleansing…probiotics and aloe OR if you want to try an alternative to aloe, may I suggest digestive enzymes. I use this to heal many folks with digestive issues, who suffer from gas, constipation, or a ‘volcanic colon’…I get that on occasion, mainly when eating out and take my enzymes after my meal to calm the activity. J Even if you continue on with JUST the probiotics, it’s better than NOTHING.

Here’s a link to that for to review…I suggest you read the many reviews of others who have used it themselves:

ISOTONIX DIGESTIVE ENZYMES WITH PROBIOTICS

Remember, not all probiotics, vitamins and supplements are treated alike. I subscribe to a 3rd party company that randomly tests various brands of these for integrity and I am disgusted at the FDA’s lack of regulation on this topic. Too many get away with promising dosages only to be found to contain 10% of what the label touts. In addition, with respect to probiotics, you get what you pay for. The strains listed on Nutri-Cleanse are extensive and in great number. Don’t waste you money on store bought brands…there are VERY few I’ve used, tested and actually approved and most are over $50 for a 1 month supply. I’ve done all of this research for you to bring you ONLY the highest quality supplements at unbeatable prices given the system of delivery.

If you’re looking to expand your health into the basics (A to Zinc), I’m currently offering a special on my online nutrition store. I wrote a blog on the top 5 vitamins for my home care toolbox that I encourage you to read my blog termed ‘Vitamin Staples’. 3 of the 5 I packaged together as a sale package at 25% off than you would pay separately.

To reorder the probiotics and aloe to continue your cleansing, digestion and health efforts:

Aside from the products you rec, how do I maintain a clean & toxic free lifestyle?

I encourage you to shop from the grocery list I provided to you in the email I sent after you ordered the cleanse. From avoiding GMO's and pesticides, antibiotics and hormones in your food to the kind of make up or lotions you put on your face to the types of household cleaning products you use, I can offer up advice for everything. My store contains world-renowned products used on movie sets, by pro athletes and celebrities across the globe that you can order direct from my site to your home that are free from toxins, chemicals, dyes, pesticides, fungicides, etc. THOSE will be as critical to your after care cleansing ‘staying clean’ phase as the kit itself. My favorite brand of all times, called SNAP (Saving Nature, Animals and People) – home cleaning products, dishwasher, detergent, etc, can be purchased through the same portal you purchased your cleanse kit. Here’s a direct link to it:

CLICK HERE FOR SAFE HOME CARE CLEANING PRODUCTS

CLICK HERE FOR MINERAL BASED, CHEMICAL FREE COSMETICS used by celebrities

Starting next week, I’ll also begin sending weekly newsletters on promotional offers and specials in addition to updates on my blogs with recipes, nutrition tips, money saving strategies, and more. Please stay tuned and STAY healthy!

AND as a thanks, for each person you refer to my store who buy from my site, I will give you a $25 gift certificate to your favorite restaurant to say thank you for spreading the good word of health. Just be sure to let me know you've sent them. The more we can reach out together, the better place this world will be.

Be fit, be healthy, be happy!

No More Trial and Error - Your DNA, Your Nutrition & Exercise Plan...Personalized, Permanent Answers, Period


  • Which vitamins should I take?
  • When should I take them?
  • Which brand?
  • Where should I buy them?
  • Who can I talk to for advice on them?
  • How do I know they’re working?
  • How much does MY body need?
  • Which diet is best for me?
  • I heard eating pineapples every day for a week, will help me lose weight.
  • Must I stop drinking coffee & alcohol to fulfill my weight loss goals? (I didn't - read on!)
  • In which exercises should I partake, and how often?

These questions are more commonplace in my daily practice than every doctor in the medical field. And for each question, you’re likely to get over 100 answers. With the flashing advertisements of trendy diets, exercise and supplements on the market today, it’s no wonder that we’re paralyzed from information overload. Wouldn’t it be helpful to know exactly what to do for all of these things, customized into your lifestyle based on YOUR DNA? Welcome to health care of the future, friends…brought to you by Diane Kazer, I announce the key to optimal health, Isotonix Nutraceuticals. I now offer every type of vitamin your body needs, in powder form. If you’re like me and DESPISE swallowing pills, I’m bringing to you the ability to DRINK YOUR VITAMINS.

With an average over 90% absorption rate and within 5 minutes into the body, your old style of taking vitamins in pill form, which you’re lucky to absorb 30% of 4 hours later, I ask you how excited it makes you to know that you’re flushing 70% of your money down the toilet…literally. This blog is intended to focus on the monumental approach I now offer to collect data from your body, to provide to you an EXACT protocol for doses of vitamins, which types, what to eat & avoid, which type of exercise your body thrives on, and more. All by unlocking the variations of YOUR GENETIC CODE. This is taking blood type dieting a million steps beyond, as others may share your same type, but NO ONE has your same DNA.

Gene SNP, your health action plan…the fingerprint to you and only you, the code that breaks down how you metabolize food, to how your body responds to exercise. Questions answered such as:

  • Why am I not losing weight?
  • Someone told me to take B-12 to increase my energy levels, why am I still tired?
  • Why do I have belly aches and digestion problems?
  • Why am I in so much pain?
  • Why do I break out into a rash when someone merely makes mention of ‘running on the treadmill’?

This is how it works…After sending in a sample of your DNA and completing an online questionnaire, you will receive all the personalized details to help you achieve optimal health. The report will tell you how you process your foods, how you react to exercise, how your environment affects your body, and how family history plays a part in your health. Gene SNP DNA Analysis is the FIRST nutrikinesio test combining customized nutrition with personalized fitness based on your genetic profile. The exclusive Health Action Plan is designed specifically for you and can be achieved in 4 simple steps:

  1. Order your Gene SNP kit
  2. Send in your DNA (a simple cheek swab)
  3. Complete your secure online profile
  4. Receive your comprehensive Health Action Plan

1) Who would you recommend the Gene SNP to?

I would recommend this to anyone who is interested in being proactive about their health and use the information to make personalized lifestyle changes based on the results. This is custom nutrition at it’s best in my opinion. The profile uses both an extensive lifestyle questionnaire with the genetic test to make health and wellness recommendations. Also, I would recommend this to athletes who want an edge with their training and racing. Nutrition and exercise related SNP recommendations are made based on results for pre-workout, recovery, and overall performance. I would recommend this to someone dealing with certain chronic diseases or struggling with weight loss to see if they are missing anything that might help them progress in the right direction for their goals and health.

2) How much does it cost?

The normal suggested retail fee for Gene SNP is $395…for a limited time, I’m offering it for $295 (plus tax and shipping). Before you go eliminating this test, discriminating based on investment alone, consider HOW MUCH $$$ you've already spend and will continue to spend on fad diets, vitamins and fitness expenses in an effort to discover what works best for you...it's all trial and error and an costly feat, to find your perfect balance. I know first hand...I've spent tens of thousands over the last 2 years, trying to find mine. This test will tell you EXACTLY what you need to thrive optimally! Yep, another time and money saving tip by Di. :)

It is recommended that you discuss your results with your nutritionist. If you already have a nutritionist, then your results can be discussed at your usual appointment, if you do not have a nutritionist, we can offer you a special package to discuss your results. In order for me to do this, you must order from my online nutrition store and request the results panel be sent to me as well as you. :) Once you order your kit, I will be notified and will email you to instruct you how to add me to the practitioner list.

3) What are the main parts of the comprehensive action plan?

The comprehensive online health action plan offers solutions related to diet, exercise, lifestyle changes and supplementation. The main areas that are focused on are: exercise performance and recovery, B-vitamin metabolism, cholesterol metabolism, phase 1 and 2 detoxification, antioxidant function, bone integrity, glucose balance, inflammatory response, salt sensitivity, and alcohol metabolism. Genetic variations which indicate a sub-optimal performing environment CAN BE ALTERED...we can literally TEACH our genes to act differently, function and respond more favorably, for greater energy, happiness and vitality. Once you receive your results, I can help you put together a plan of action to instigate that!

4) What was the most helpful part of your comprehensive action plan?

Among many findings, my key learnings was that I wasn’t metabolizing my B vitamins properly, I had too much in my system, but not enough of the agent that aids absorption of it, that my body thrives on flexibility and endurance based exercise (83% more responsive) vs power based training - ie weight training (17% responsive), and that I should be very cognizant of my diet and supplement to support high HDL/low LDL levels, as I have a predisposition to heart, blood vessels and fat congestion genetically, passed down from my father. This was HUGE for me and explained a lot...my father suffered 3 strokes last year, and this confirmed I inherited more from my father than just his fun-loving personality. Unfortunate, but I felt in control, in a big way. Contrary to what many may think about me, I can gain weight pretty easily, but don't because of my dedication to fitness and work ethic on maintaining health through clean/fresh/nutrient rich/calorie dense foods. I've seen my body before when I let myself go, during the only chapter in my life when I did, during 1 semester abroad studying in London while in college, and I HATE looking at those pictures now.

What my Gene SNP told me, was how to prevent that by supplementing accordingly, AND by cautioning my daily intake of saturated fats, one of the culprits for forming high levels of LDL in the body (I remember it by LDL = lousy, and HDL = happy). The media has gone crazy about coconut oil, how good it is for you, touting it's myriad of uses, from plate to face, and I myself was obsessing over it, using it more than other oils, however it's fat source is saturated fat, so sadly, yet willingly, I have cut back on it significantly due to my findings and use more Extra Virgin Olive Oil, as recommended by my Gene SNP.

Another aha moment I had was the genetic variation that illustrated how my body metabolizes alcohol. Thank God I gave that up years ago…turns out it was causing toxic swelling in my body that I thought was fat and tried to fight off all these years. FALSE FAT is what that was. As mentioned above, I was shocked (and kind of excited LOL) to read that my body thrives on a serving of caffeine per day (250-400mg) as well as 1 oz of red wine, a small serving, yet medicinally helpful. Our most amazing anti-oxidant is OPC, a flagship vitamin in powdered Isotonic form, which has contains grape seed and wine extract, so my question was 'I take that everyday, does this fulfill that requirement' and the answer was 'no'. Now, I'm not going on a binge every day and night with this stuff, I just now know that it's a potential treatment for my body that it will soak up and welcome when I do. :) Whodathunk? Coffee and red wine are my saviors. Yield to readers though...this is NOT the case with everyone. So now, a few times per week I have a small serving of caffeine when I rise in the morning (never later in the day as that causes sleep disruption), and I'm trying to work back in a half glass of red wine on the weekends again. I didn't like the old Di when she drank, but I do miss my occasional affair with red wine! That excited me to hear that reconvening would benefit my health on a cellular level!

Perhaps my biggest key learning was that my endocrine system was low functioning….that last bit of belly fat I was struggling to ditch, and am approached with as one of the most popular questions, literally ‘fell off’ in 3 days using a formula I sell which optimizes thyroid and adrenal function and minimizes the effects of cortisol, which contribute to stubborn belly fat and poor sleep patterns…basically, I wasn’t handling ‘stress’ functionally. Insane results! These are tidbits of amazing information I would never have known or thought of had I not took this test. Here’s the herbal mix I’m using for that now:

CLICK HERE FOR INFO ON ADRENAL, CORTISOL, THYROID AND STRESS FORMULA

Now, we have several other weight loss/fat loss/heart health herbal remedies, so I'm not saying this is YOUR solution, however it was mine, and the idea here is that I have a huge line up of remedies for your particular genetic outlay. There's no reason to spend $1000 per month on supplements because ads advertise on heart health, or your father had a heart attack....many of the conditions we see in medicine today are lifestyle related and hence if your father died of a heart attack, your mother of breast cancer, doesn't necessarily predispose you to it. You might not have that gene...so doesn't it make sense before living a life in fear and buying every anti-cancer med on the planet, that you're made aware of the likelihood you're going to get it too?

No more guessing or testing hundreds of diets, supplements and fitness packages to find what works best for you. This is it friends! The key that unlocks the power of your healthy and timeless future, promoting optimal health NEVER before achieved.
