Discovery Channel® wrote a piece on Darin last week, and they were so pleased with our mission and the interest they got in it that they wrote another article about Shakeology® on TreeHugger.com (an affiliate of the Discovery® Network).
TreeHugger.com was particularly interested in our sustainable farming practices. They focused on the fact that, “when Olien finds an ingredient he thinks would be perfect for Shakeology, he works with the locals to create farms to harvest the ingredient in a sustainable fashion, providing jobs and much-needed income to these isolated areas.”

It’s the most delicious vegan shake ever created. Crafted with a mouthwatering mix of sweet strawberries, smooth bananas, luscious papayas, tangy pineapples, plus whole superfoods from around the world, you’ll love the refreshing fruity flavor of our 100% VEGAN, SOY, and DAIRY-FREE Tropical Strawberry shake.
You don’t have to be a vegan to love a vegan shake. Many people digest plant proteins better than animal proteins. And it contains vitamins and nutrients your body craves in a more readily assimilable form to help keep you strong, healthy, lean, and focused.
As always, this new Shakeology is a nutritious and delicious shake that can help you:*
• Lose Weight
• Reduce Cravings
• Stay Regular
• Feel Energized
• Experience Vitality
Delivering vegan benefits without the grittiness of vegan proteins was a challenge, but we succeeded by blending ultra-fine, bio-fermented, raw, sprouted brown rice protein with sacha inchi, quinoa, chia, flax, amaranth, and spirulina.
When a seed sprouts, it creates a metabolic explosion of nutrition, increasing its vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants. Bio-fermenting further breaks down the rice grain, releasing enzymes to help make it easier for your body to absorb the nutrients.
All the key nutrients in our shakes come from 100% whole foods. And what’s so great about whole foods? Because they’re unprocessed and unrefined, whole foods deliver vitamins and nutrients to your body in a more holistic and easily assimilated way—the way nature intended.
Tropical Strawberry has the superfoods you already know and love, plus four NEW additions:*
The flower of a coconut tree produces nectar that’s sweet, is low on the glycemic index (GI), and loaded with fiber, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals.
This low glycemic fruit has been used in Asia for centuries for immune and respiratory support and as a healthy way to lend natural sweetness to foods.
Not all salt is unhealthy. Himalayan salt is unprocessed and contains over 70 trace minerals from the earth that our bodies need.
This superfood contains soluble fiber, which expands in your stomach to help you feel full for longer.
Beachbody is committed to helping you put the world’s most perfect whole food ingredients at your fingertips. So when it comes to pure, easily assimilated, high-quality ingredients, Beachbody Ultimate products are effective in nurturing the body’s ability to heal itself while enhancing its overall organic function.* That’s why you’ll see the Beachbody Ultimate logo on the newest addition to the Shakeology family.

Did you know that there is a Hunger Scale that can help you determine just how hungry you are? The scale ranges from 1 to 10, and if you aim to stay at 5 or 6, your eating will likely remain under control.
But how do you do that? It’s best to eat when you’re at 3 or 4, so that you don’t get down to 1 or 2 and overdo it. Also keep in mind that when you first feel hungry, it’s easy to mistake thirst for hunger, so reach for a glass of water.
Here’s the Hunger Scale:*
10: Stuffed. You are so full you feel nauseous.
9: Very uncomfortably full. You need to loosen your clothes.
8: Uncomfortably full. You feel bloated.
7: Full. A little bit uncomfortable.
6: Perfectly comfortable. You feel satisfied.
5: Comfortable. You’re more or less satisfied, but could eat a little more.
4: Slightly uncomfortable. You’re just beginning to feel signs of hunger.
3: Uncomfortably hungry. Your stomach is rumbling.
2: Very uncomfortable. You feel irritable and unable to concentrate.
1: Weak and light-headed. Your stomach acid is churning.
*From Bob Greene’s The Best Life Diet
Eating should not be a race. Hurrying through a meal causes you to miss most of its delicious flavors, not to mention that you’re likely to eat way more than you should. That’s because your body doesn’t recognize it’s full until twenty minutes after you’ve eaten too much.
So instead, go slower. Put your phone down. Turn off the television. Chew slowly and focus on each bite, putting your fork down between them. By doing so, you’ll reach that feeling of satiety without ever feeling like you need to unloosen your belt a notch.
Don’t “graze” yourself fat. It’s easy to eat 600 calories of yummy food by cleaning up what’s left over from your kid’s meal, or by grabbing a handful of something from the pantry every time you go into the kitchen.
If you’ve been having a hard time figuring out why you’re working out but not losing weight, even though you think you’re eating right, consider using the Team Beachbody® Meal Planner or keeping a food diary for a week. This way you can face the music on how much you’ve really been consuming, and adjust your habits accordingly.
