As the days count down to Aug 1 and the start of this 40 Day Holistic Fast approaches I am excited and yet dreading it all at the same time. One of the things I know will help me during this time is taking the right supplements and at our studio we have discovered probably the best sourced and manufactured supplements on the planet. It’s called NutriHarmony and during the 40 days I’ll be utilizing the Whey Protein, Enfusia, and Fat Loss Maximizer more than I have already been. What we love about all of these and what sets them apart from anything else people have taken and heard about is that it’s all 100% Real Food. Organic, Non GMO, and un-denatured. It’s the equivalent to harvesting out of the Garden of Eden. And lets face it, I’ll need all the help I can get during these 40 days.

Whey Protein
Protein is something everyone needs more of in their diet. Protein has amino acids which help with balancing our body’s hormones. Protein helps with those crazy sugar cravings and helps sustain us longer between meals. In America we are very carb heavy. And the protein we do consume is the most disgusting stuff you can imagine. The easiest way to get protein into my diet will be through whey. So my plan is 1 to 3 scoops a day. I’ll have a smoothie in the morning that is 1 cup Coconut Milk, 1 cup fresh organic fruit, and 1 scoop of whey. Blend that with some ice and it should be fantastic. I’ll most likely finish my day with 1 scoop in some water. If I slam it at the end of the day then it will help with the production of growth hormones (70% of which are created during sleep) and help my body recover for my next day. And then I’ll try and have some after a workout to help rebuild my muscles that I just tore down. Along with enhancing my immune system and increasing glutathione levels, this stuff is amazing.

Why I love NutriHarmony’s Whey – Its over 98% un-denatured, meaning its almost perfect. It hasn’t really been taken out of its NATURAL form. Getting raw protein is impossible. A scoop of this will be better than the finest, Prime, grass-fed, organic piece of steak. It hasn’t been heated and treated with any type of chemical. Nothing truly comes close to it and I’m looking forward to seeing what it will do to my body during these 40 days.

Enfusia
Everyone is looking for the greatest energy drink. We live in a fast-paced world where we work 60 hours a week, and 7 cups of coffee with an iced latte is just not cutting it any more. I’ll be the first to admit that organic fair wage coffee is served at the gates of Heaven, but coming across Enfusia has blown me away. It’s a blend of herbs from deep in the rainforest of South America. The main ingredient in this powerhouse tea is Yerba Mate, the drink seen in the hands of anyone walking around the streets of South America. Because the tea is not heated above 100 degrees, it’s raw and full of antioxidant power. If you know about ORAC scores then you know a glass of Enfusia packing over 70,000 ORAC is unheard of. There is nothing that comes close to touching that. What does that mean for me during this 40 days? Detoxification baby. I’m going to get all those yucky nasty toxins that have been building up in my body out! Not to mention Enfusia will help suppress my appetite and be a fighting army for my digestion.

Why I love Enfusia – It has Mateins instead of Caffeine, and that is so wonderful because the energy I get will sustain me throughout the day. I will feel balanced and alive. I hate the crash I get from other stuff so I can avoid it altogether. My favorite new way of drinking it is iced with pieces of fruit cut up in it and some drops of Stevia. If I’m feeling frisky I pick some mint from my garden and top it off. Ah yeah.

Fat Loss Maximizer
Its not my goal to lose a bunch of weight during this time but I have always wondered what it’s like to not have any additional parts of my body hanging over my belt. So if I’m going to knock out those final pounds I thought this would be a perfect time. In a nutshell, the way Fat Loss works is that it slows down the absorption of carbs in my body. Now I can’t go eat cookies every day and hope this performs a miracles. Its just Real Food, not some chemical junk. So I’ll take it 10 minutes before my meals, and it will help me absorb my carbs more slowly, which will help me with my insulin levels. Bottom line is if I’m taking care of myself, moving a lot, and eating right, this stuff will help me drop those pounds I need help with.

Why I love Fat Loss – I’m horrible with the insulin. I know this because the final bit that I need to lose is in my belly. That gut is a big sign of insulin imbalance, so knowing Fat Loss will help with that is perfect. My plan is to try and take some pinches or measurements and after 40 days I should be able to report some pretty cool results.

So that’s it for Real Food Supplements. Next post will be about my schedule.
