Benefits of Nutritional Shakes

 Now I am not ashamed to say I am a Herbalife fan big time. (No, not because of David Beckham!)

Not only do I like their products, I recommend them as part of my nutrition programmes and I use them myself.  Yes I honestly do.

I am constantly being reminded by my clients of the high quality products and ingredients used within them, as they have been known to compare the Herbalife brand with some off the shelf brands.. no names mentioned.

Here is my version of the benefits of having a nutritional meal replacement shake within your current program, even if you are not looking to lose weight.

Weight maintenance
If you are looking to keep your weight at a steady pace, then having one meal replaced by a nutritional shake will help you maintain your calorific intake on a daily basis. Far too often a small snack can turn into the wrong type of fatty or stodgy foods which will only add more calories and fat to your programme rather than helping you to slim down.

I personally use the Herbalife Nutritional Shake Mix for weight maintenance and also use it within my sports nutrition program.  (Did I mention I am going to do a 13 mile half marathon in October?)

Weight Loss

A great way to lose weight is to replace two of your meals with a nutrient and protein rich shake which will have included  much needed vitamins and minerals.  Having a liquid nutritional shake is easier on the digestive system, and puts the nutrients directly back into the blood streams where appropriatel.  Normally it make take a few hours for your food to digest, but with a liquid meal,this aids better indigestion and does not take up as much of your bodies resources.

I lost over 28lbs using Herbalife products over 7 years ago and have not looked back since. 

Weight Gain
Believe it or not there are some people who wish to put on weight and who find it very difficult to do so healthily. Having a nutritional shake on top of having three regular meals a day is a great way to put on healthy weight under guidance from a nutritionist or wellness coach.

Sports Nutrition

 A while back I completed the London Triathalon with a whole bunch of Herbalife Independent Distributors. We were given training on how to use the Herbalife product range to aid us with our sports nutritional needs in order to compete inthe London Triathalon.  Herbalife have a great range of sports nutritional supplements and isotonic drinks to aid your training needs.  LA Galaxy is currently sponsored by Herbalife and more and more sports are looking to nutritional supplementation.


As a healthy fast food!
 If you lead a busy life and are always on the go,then you use the Herbalife Nutritional Shake Mix as a ultimate fast food. Full of vitamins, minerals and filling too, low fat and low calories!

As a pick me up tonic
If you are feeling unwell and are put off your food, having the nutritional shake is ideal to help keep your energy levels up.  Not only are you still getting your vitamins and minerals, but a wholesome nutritional meal.

Now I don't know about you, but there are a whole load of reasons listed above why the Herbalife nutritional shake mix is so flexible and the benefits it can bring to all aspects of your wellbeing is not to be argued.If you want to know more about our products and how to use them, drop me a line at londonfitgirlsclub@gmail.com
