There are several reasons why people choose to drink Shakeology® on a daily basis. I have read people use it as a healthy snack or as a way to lose weight. Personally, I use it for the following reasons:
- As a daily multivitamin
- To reduce my sweet food cravings
- To reduce hunger in between meals
- Help with my skin
As a Multivitamin Supplement
My first reason for choosing to use Shakeology was as a multivitamin. I used to have problems with swallowing pills. Silly I know, but I used to think I’d choke. When I found out about Shakeology and all of the ingredients I wanted to try it. I have since learned how to swallow pills but I still like drinking my daily shake in place of taking a vitamin supplement in pill format.
Reducing My Sweet Food Cravings
I’m a big dessert lover. I love chocolate, chocolate chip cookies, ice cream, cake, you name it. Before Shakeology, I’d eat desserts every single day after dinner. I just wanted something sweet. Now instead of reaching for junk food, I make a shake to take away the desire for something sweet.
Reducing Hunger
I work from home and that can be dangerous when it comes to gaining weight. The kitchen is only a few feet away and boredom can lead to massive snacking. What I’ve noticed with drinking one shake a day is that I don’t crave anything during the day. I do eat fruit as snacks but as far as wanting junk, I don’t have a desire for it at all.
Helping with My Skin
Several years ago, I was diagnosed with eczema. I started to have breakouts which would be itchy, dry, discolored skin. I was prescribed a combination of medicated creams which I didn’t like using. There were different possible side effects from using the medication. I stopped using them but still had my flare-ups. Fortunately I started to take flax seed oil as a supplement.
Within a matter of weeks, my skin began to clear up. Since Shakeology contains flax seed, I don’t bother buying a separate flax seed supplement. I get it from the shake and keep my eczema in check.
Please note: I am not claiming that drinking Shakeology will help with eczema or any other skin disorder. I am only stating what has worked for me.
Are you a Shakeology user? What do you like most about it?
