7 Reasons you can not lose weight


You know it's not just about diet and exercise! The top 7 reasons and the Plexus products that can help you!

1) SLEEP - If you are not sleeping you will not lose weight. (Probio5 and MegaX)

2) DIGESTION - constipation, bloating, feeling full all the time, a swollen stomach. ( Probio5 and Biocleanse)

3) ENERGY LEVEL- thyroid and iron anemia (X-Factor and Slim)

4) MENSTRUAL CYCLE - if it is off you will have a hard time losing weight because estrogen makes fat. If there is excess estrogen it interferes with the thyroid and increases fat production. (Slim and Biocleanse)

5) CRAVINGS - one way to know you are burning fat is that you will crave NOTHING. If you crave sweets it means your body only burns sugar and not FAT. (Slim/probio5 and Accelerator+)

6) INFLAMMATION- means the adrenals are not strong enough. It sucks the energy from the body and slows metabolism. (Mega X, EASE and NERVE)

7) STRESS - if the body is stuck in stress mode and it cannot relax the adrenals are overloaded and you have too much body stress. (X Factor, Slim and BioCleanse)

Probio5 and VitalBiome



HEALTH AND HAPPINESS…IT IS A SCIENCE!

MOOD & ANXIETY ISSUES??........SEROTONIN & GUT HEALTH are key!

VITALBIOME and PROBIO5 truly work great as a duo!

KEY FACTORS
A whopping 80% of your immune system and about 95% of your body’s serotonin (mood elevating hormone) are in your gut.
The GUT is absolutely one of the most important things we need to take care of. Consuming fermented foods and a diet rich in veggies, healthy fats, and lean proteins are critical to supporting your gut health. However, for many of us, eating such a perfect diet all the time just isn’t that easy, and oftentimes it isn’t enough.


PROBIO5 and VITALBIOME serve 2 different purposes. While Probio5 weeds out the bad organisms from your gut garden, VitalBiome serves as the healthy "seed" you need to plant in your gut. VitalBiome contains 7 clinically-proven strains of probiotics and a beneficial yeast (S. Boulardi) in clinically proven amounts to help improve:

feelings of stress, anxiety, and other mood issues
digestive issues such as bloating, constipation, diarrhea, gas, acid reflux, and so many other digestive disorders
Decreases inflammation in the gut
Both are essential to an ideal, balanced gut ecosystem, but VitalBiome is especially helpful to add to Probio5 if you struggle with one of the above things.

Corrosive Coca-Cola




Facts about Coca Cola…(not for the faint of heart)

Coke is a powerful cleanser:

It can dissolve a T-bone steak in two days.

Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl and let sit for one hour, then flush clean.

Pour a can of Coca-Cola over battery terminals to bubble away the corrosion.

Soak a rag in Coca-Cola and then place over rusted bolt for several minutes in order to loosen.

The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric acid leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.

Commercial trucks delivering the Coca-Cola syrup (concentrate) must identify their shipment as Hazardous Material because it is a highly corrosive material.

Apparently, the distributors of Coke have been using it to clean the engines of their trucks for about 20 years!

Now the question is, why would you do that to your body?

Inflammation




Inflammation...a nasty little thing that causes poop issues, joint issues and difficulty losing weight. There are several things you can do to help fight the inflammation, I am going to hit on three of them here.

WATER: Drink 1/2 your weight in ounces every single day. EVERY single day. You can add a bit of lemon juice to it first thing in the morning to help cleanse the liver. Also, if you don't drink enough water, you body will go into dehydration mode and hold on to any liquid it gets. This causes inflammation in the form of water weight. While in dehydration mode, your body will also pull fluid from wherever it can get it. This includes your joints. You know those squishy pads between your bones that keep things cushioned? Those things (in simple terms) start to dry up and this causes even more join pain. 

FOOD: Many things we ingest on a daily basis contribute to inflammation. One of the biggest culprits is sugar.
*Sugar can be found in baked goods, candy, energy bars, soda, and lots of well known sugar foods. But then there are the not so well know such as refined carbs, peanut butter, fruit juice, sweetened yogurt and condiments.
*Vegetable oil: Mayonnaise, salad dressings, barbecue sauce, crackers, bread, potato chips.
*Fried foods: french fries, fried chicken, fish sticks, chicken tenders, onion rings.
*Refined flour: Pizza, white bread, crackers, pasta, pretzels, flour tortillas, breakfast cereals, bagels.
*Dairy: Milk, soft cheeses, yogurt, butter.
*Artificial sweetener: No-sugar-added products, no-calorie “Diet” soft drinks.
*Artificial additives: Breakfast cereals, processed foods containing fruit, candy, ice cream.
*Saturated fat: Burgers, pizza, candy, chips.
*Processed meat: Bacon, hot dogs, bologna, sausage, jerky.
*Trans-fat foods: Margarine/shortening; baked goods like doughnuts, cookies, and muffins; non-dairy coffee creamers; frozen pizza; frosting.
*Fast food: You know what I'm talking about, I don't need to type it out.

EASE: Are you familiar with turmeric? This powerful spice is in Plexus Ease and is packed with anti-inflammatories and antioxidants. Turmeric has been proven to fight off destructive free radicals, rejuvenate cells, cleanse the liver, protect the heart , boost moods and supports healthy brain functioning. BUT normally, turmeric taken in pill form is ineffective because you need FAT with it. Our Ease has a superior one in the form of the Green Lipped Mussel, an Omega3 fatty acid, which is up to 100 times more effective in reducing inflammation than a regular Omega 3 supplement! Plexus Ease also contains serrapeptase & Green Lipped Mussel! Google those ingredients, you’ll be impressed!

Sleep Deprivation and your gut

Remember the last time you got a really good nights sleep? 
Remember how incredible it felt to wake up well rested before the alarm even went off?

Most of you are going to answer 'no' to both of those questions.  Most of you don't know the enjoyment of a well rested body, but you know all to well what it feels like to not get enough sleep. 

Not meaning to add insult to injury, but those who are sleep deprived, on average, eat 400 more calories than those who are rested.  Sleep deprivation impacts hunger and fullness hormones.

*Ghrelin tells your brain it's time to eat.
*Leptin cues the brain to put the fork down

With insufficient sleep your ghrelin goes up and your leptin goes down.  This leads to risk of obesity and Type 2 diabetes. 

Sleep deprivation can be linked back to the whole gut-brain connection.  The gut-brain axis (GBA) refers to a two-way communication stream between the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) and the enteric nervous system (the 500 million neurons embedded in the lining of the gastrointestinal tract).


Stress and anxiety — both elements of mood disruption — can seriously impact our sleep. In our modern world of constant stimulation, fast food, and the various stressors unique to each individual, it’s important that we understand the role the gut plays on our ability to cope with stress,  which can have a major impact on our ability to sleep. Taking care of our physical and emotional stressors by cleaning up our gut health could be a major win for our quality of sleep.



 Enter Plexus Probio5 and Bio Cleanse.  You can read all about their goodness here

 Getting your gut healthy allows the gut and brain to connect so much better.  This better connection helps you to sleep better.  Better sleep means a more well rested, happier you.  

You can also help your sleep by eating....or avoiding...certain foods in the evening.

Good food:
banana
dairy
nuts
seeds
honey
eggs

Bad food:
spicy
chocolate
alcohol
high protein

To help your mornings be a little more cheerful:
* Eat a low carb/high  protein breakfast
* Bring in natural light
* Exercise or meditate
* Drink a full 8 oz. glass of water





BioCleanse and Probio5 for a sexy gut


I want to share with you what your gut looks like. Sexy, isn't it. We want a Normal gut lining, but honestly, most people are inflamed. As if having an ugly gut lining isn't bad enough, there is also the whole leaky gut thing going on, letting food particles, bacteria and other nasty stuff lose in your body. Yep, that is not a good thing. It's there, the ugly lining has happened, now what? Now you talk to me about getting that thing sexy again. Serious, don't walk around with an ugly gut lining, just don't do it.


These are the EXACT plant bases supplements needed to begin getting your gut sexy. Why these and not store bought? Read your labels and compare. Seriously, there is no comparison. With their use, my digestion, after 30 years of pain and stopping me from doing things I wanted to do, completely changed!

🍃Biocleanse is a magnesium supplement. This nutrient is very important for our body. It is involved with over 300 functions in the body! One extremely important is energy production. It’s also tied to cardiovascular issues when someone struggles with deficiency. Biocleanse is designed to be a gentle daily cleanse. We need to always be working on maintaining our gut health and a gentle daily Biocleanse routine will help.
Another important benefit of Biocleanse is a stronger immune system. Thank you bioflavaboids.

Now let’s learn more about Probio5...
🍃it’s so much more than a probiotic. It has digestive enzymes! These enzymes are essential for healthy digestion and overall health.
Did you know that digestive enzymes are not found in processed foods; only in fresh foods like fruits and veggies!
After reading about these enzymes you’ll see why Probio5 is such an important supplement for everyone!

🍃Chitosanase is an enzyme with systematic name chitosan N-acetylglucosaminohydrolase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction Endohydrolysis of beta-(1->4)-linkages between D-glucosamine residues in a partly acetylated chitosan. A whole spectrum of chitosanases are known. This is one of the extremely important digestive enzymes that helps to rebalance the gut.
These hydrolytic enzymes break down glycosidic bonds in chitin.

🍃Another important enzyme is protease. This proteolytic enzyme, peptidase or proteinase is a type of enzyme that functions mainly to help us digest different kinds of proteins. They break down the bonds by a process known as hydrolysis and convert proteins into smaller chains called peptides or even smaller units called amino acids.

🍃Peptizyme-SP®(serrapeptase) is a powerful systemic enzyme that supports the body’s response to inflammation and the respiratory and sinus systems. This unique activity of Peptizyme SP’s enteric-coated serrapeptase supports normal fibrin metabolism, blood viscosity and blood flow. Serrapeptase supports healthy inflammatory response by reducing metabolic inflammation, usually an asymptomatic inflammatory process in response to stress, improper nutrition and other environmental issues. In addition, there is evidence of inhibition of C-reactive protein, a marker of inflammation that has been linked to cardiovascular health.

Probio5 has an antioxidant blend that helps strength the immune system with Vitamin C, B and grape seed extract.
There is no other probiotic out there that includes 5 strains of probiotics that are very important for gut health, supports the immune system with the antioxidant blend and helps digestion and breaking down “bad” organisms with the digestive enzyme blend!
