    Undenatured Whey Protein Shakes important part of cleansing and weight loss 

    “Cleansing” is a hot topic now in the U.S.  especially where I live in Colorado.  So in vogue now,  that it can cause one to just do nothing because of the daunting task to find a safe, reliable, and affordable system.

    There are many products and companies touting that they have the magic juice or ingredient to “cleanse” our body. However, data supports the importance of having a full spectrum nutritional intake to support the body in cleansing using both phase one and phase two pathways.

    The body has 2 main pathways of detoxification called phase one and phase two. Thus, it is important to  support our bodies with a mulititude of ingredients so it utilizes both pathways and not over burden any of our bodies natural cleansing abilities.  No single ingredient or process can achieve this goal.

    One very important component of cleansing to look for is the quality of protein one takes.  Because  Amino acids in protein shakes support the phase two process it is vital to purchase a high quality protein shake that is has a complete amino acid profile and is highly bioavailable.

    Independent testing shows that  bioactive ingredients other than whey proteins are important components in a meal replacement shake.  Some are  Cysteine, and amino peptide factors and growth factors.   When whey is heated the bioavailability of the food is compromised. Having a large array of  ingredients in one system is also economical.

    Look for a source of whey that is not the by product of cheese production, as this can harm the whey because of the heating that is needed.

    As quoted from an article written by Robert Harrison:

    “When the milk goes through a heating process (approx. 163 F), chemical modification and pH regulation to produce cheese. Each of these steps denatures (damages) the whey proteins.”

    Let’s look at one amino acid in particular:  Cysteine vs. Cystine

    “Biologically active whey protein that contains naturally occurring Cysteine is optimal for the intracellular production of Glutathione. If Cysteine undergoes any heating or processing, as all conventional dairy and dairy by-products do, it is denatured and converted to Cystine.”

    Glutathione is produced within our bodies and is vital for supporting phase 2 of detoxification. It is imperative that the protein profile offers our bodies this nutrition for safe cleansing.

    The Isalean shakes are undenatured whey protein from grass fed cows in New Zealand and are processed using a low temperature process.  They have the full amino acid profile needed to support phase 2 of the detoxification pathway.  This makes it the perfect compliment to the “cleanse for life” juice drink which supports the “phase one” pathway.

    Preventative health is more than just eating well and exercising.  It is finding a safe way to help rid the body ofharmful impurties that we encounter everyday. I have found that incorporating a comprehensive cleansing program that is easy to follow into my daily life has taken my health to a new level and has helped me reach my ideal weight and keep me there!

    Did You Miss This INDULGE WHILE YOU CLEANSE 

    http://dailyblabber.ivillage.com/entertainment/nancyodell.jpg

    “I lost seven pounds in, like, one week” isn’t the kind of statement you expect to hear from someone who’s had to cut back on her exercise regimen – but that’s just what Nancy O’Dell experienced after she turned from cardio to cleanses after being sidelined by a knee injury on Dancing with the Stars. The former daily runner tells PEOPLE that she turned to Isagenix, a cleansing and fat burning nutritional system, to maintain her physique. “You can eat as much as you want as long as you eat organic fruits and vegetables, and it has all the juices and stuff you drink with it,” she explains.

    What is Isagenix? What is in the Isagenix 9 Day and 30 Day Program? 

    What do you know about Isagenix?
    For most people, the Isagenix 9 Day or 30 Day Program is something their friend did and she lost a lot of weight and feels great.
    And that’s about it. Most of us have no idea what’s in it or how it works.
    Well, that was me last week…
    My good friend is always talking about Isagenix, but I never really listened.  Actually, I was a skeptic.  I am by nature, but who isn’t when it comes to dieting advice?
    So,it took a long time, but I finally listened and I learned that the Isagenix 9 Day and 30 Day programs really aren’t about dieting at all.  Isagenix is really about getting healthy on the cellular level and weight loss is just a side effect.

    How Isagenix is Refreshingly Different
    Isagenix is a clinically-proven four-step Cleansing and Fat Burning System that helps fire-up your fat-melting metabolism for healthy weight loss and optimal health.

    No more yo-yo dieting or taking dangerous diet pills. Finally – shed those stubborn unwanted pounds and extra inches easily without going hungry or starving yourself. Here are the four low-calorie, fat-burning steps to a slimmer, healthier you.

    Step One – Nutritional Cleansing with Cleanse-for-Life®
    You start by giving your body the right nutrition for a thorough cellular detox is called “Nutritional Cleansing.” Nutritional Cleansing is not one of those fad juice fasts or crazy colon cleanses.

    Cleanse for Life is a natural, delicious herbal drink that supports Nutritional Cleansing. It helps your body’s own natural detox systems remove toxins as you lower calories and burn off unwanted body fat.

    Each 25-calorie serving contains a proprietary blend of 11 gentle detox-promoting natural botanicals with organic agents and Ionic Alfalfa™ minerals.

    When you perform regular Nutritional Cleansing with Cleanse for Life, you give your body a fat-burning start to ideal weight and optimal health.

    Step Two – Replenish Your Body with Satisfying IsaLean® Shakes
    The IsaLean® Shake is a high-protein, nutrient-dense, low 240-calorie complete beverage that satisfies you while helping burn unwanted body fat.

    The filling, proprietary replenishing formula combines in one tasty shake:

    • 23 grams of the highest-quality grade 7 undenatured whey and casein protein from the world’s pure source: New Zealand grass-fed cows raised without antibiotics, growth hormone or steroids
    • 6 grams of good fats from olive oil, flax seed and high-oleic sunflower oil
    • Low in lactose, with extra lactase enzymes for easy digestion
    • Natural, helpful digestive enzymes, with acidophilus for bowel health- and for optimal nutrition:
    • Essential A, B, C, D and E vitamins with ionic minerals sourced from deep beneath the earth’s crust
    • Natural flavors with no artificial ingredients

    • An ideal 40:30:30 nutrient ratio – the right blend of carbohydrates, protein and fat for optimal nutrition

    I can drink one or two complete, nutritionally-packed, low-calorie IsaLean Shakes daily for healthy weight and optimal health.

    Step Three – Relax and Rejuvenate with Ionix® Supreme
    Try Ionix Supreme!  It offers a unique blend of stress-coping, performance-supporting adaptogenic herbs that includes: Eleutherococcus , Golden Root and Nepali Shilajit, plus antioxidants like Wolfberry and Ionic Alfalfa.

    Why wouldn’t you want to cleanse your body on a cellular level with Isagenix? 

    The information about harmful chemicals all around us is becoming more mainstream. Everyday there are articles, and news reports about how every day chemicals that we don’t even give a second thought about are being found to negatively impact our health.  In a recent letter from the Environmental Defense Fund they state “many of these chemicals have never been safety tested”.  So you ask might yourself, “what does this mean to me”?  Consider that one of the key issues the EDF is alerting us to is the fact that these chemicals have not been tested for their cumulative effects on our bodies, and they have not been tested on how they interact with each other in our bodies.  The National Geographic magazine in an article in the fall of 2006  addressed this very scary fact. So what do we do to help protect ourselves?

    Being in the medical field I was quite leery of, and continue to be leery of herbs for cleansing. So when I came across a proven system that was clinically tested, and had a proven track record of over several years, I became interested in learning more.  I had many questions and all were graciously answered by the associate who worked with me. I decided to use the system and within a few days had noticable results.  My weight loss and health improvement results were better than I ever dreamed they would be.

    Cleansing our internal bodies can be a simple and effective way to assist the body in releasing harmful impurities.  Isagenix offered me a way to “cleanse” my internal body while offering me a system with a proven track record, that has been clinically tested.

    If you would like to a copy of the National Geographic article or want to know more about the system I use, I invite you to view my web site and please contact me.    http://www.AileenHanson

    Common Household Items linked to serious health risks and obesity 

    Information about how our modern word convenience and products are contributing to serious health risks and obesity is becoming more well-known.  The Environmental Defense Fund is one organization that has been a leader in providing facts to the pubic about this threat to our health.  In an article this month the EDF warns us about invisible toxins inside our homes.  They helped write a report in collaboration with the coalition Safer Chemicals Healthy Families.  This report “connects the dots between chemical exposures and chronic disease”.  The following are a few common household items that contain chemicals linked to serious health risks:   flooring and windows, plastics, fragrances,  food can linings, nonstick cookware, cleaners, hardwood floor protectant, carpeting, nonstick cookware, stain resistant fabrics, microwaves, adhesives, pizza boxes, fast food containers, batteries, old paint, lightbulbs.  This list contains items we can avoid and many that would be very difficult to avoid in our modern world.

    As a Physical Therapist in Northern Colorado where health is on the minds of many people,  I am seeing more and more chronic illnesses,  more illnesses affecting people at younger ages, and people desperately wanting to lose weight.  We owe it to ourselves to be diligent about what we eat, what we purchase, what we bring into our homes, and how our actions are affecting our environment.  And we owe it to ourselves to find safe ways to rid our bodies of harmful impurities.

    To  help protect us from things in our environment that we are unable to control I have embraced a safe and effective lifestyle using the Isagenix system.  I feel it is the best way to help my families immune system. We are very thankful for having been introduced to the system that Isagenix has so brilliantly designed.

    To view a very interesting and informative video about this topic please visit :  http://www.AileenHanson.com click on  ”isavideo“,  then “Are You Toxic“.

    This video is designed to inform us about the environmental toxins all around us, and educate us about a safe and easy way to help maintain and improve our health.

    If you would like to learn more or get started, please contact me.  My contact information is on that web site.

    I hope you have found this information useful.

    Isagenix 30 day vs. Shake / Cleanse vs. Modified 30 Day system 

    I see some teams promoting the double Shake and Cleanse pak only, as the intro product for ease of use + compliance = more people stay on system because it is easier, the same each day + people don’t have to go a day without food… I’m told this builds the business faster too, and that the results of this are within 5% of the results for following the 30 day with the cleanse days included…

    That said – I have other teams telling me that taking products out out affects the system & that the 30 day should be the system of choice for the new person & first time on the product & followed precisely.

    On the other side – I’ve also had it suggested that modifying the 30 day to turn it into a cleanse at night just before bed + shake when you wake = take all the other products during the day normally is a great way to keep people on board too due to the fact it is the same everyday, and does not require going full days without food while on cleanse.

    Can you please offer your thoughts on these versions vs. how much faster / slower each would be = can we adapt the systems like this to serve those who essentially are saying they can’t follow instructions & aren’t willing to go a day without eating… lol :-)

    Finally – would you please have the Total Health & Wellness system updated so that it too can be 1 Choc & 1 Vanilla (just like all the other paks!) as this is most desireable to many people I am speaking to, when they want to go to maintenance.

    Thanks John! :-)

    John Anderson’s reply;

    Business Building vs Cleansing and better health;
    These are two different subjects and both important for the success of your health and livelihood.

    First, your health;
    There are modified ways found today that have changed my original science of “Cleansing” and the added benefit of weight loss, and general overall health.

    Some of the reasons we get sick today is because of the exposure of toxic chemicals, pollutants, unclean water, contaminated foods, polluted air, etc.

    Exposure to the environment leads to chemicals being trapped in your body, this is an absolute fact. Loosing weight go hand in hand with releasing toxins.

    Your body is a miracle, God created us with a very complex design, however we are overloaded with todays pollution and more.

    So, your goal can be weight loss, or it may be cleansing, both will yield better health. They work together as well.

    Releasing weight, “Fat Burning”, will uncover toxins, (one being flame retardants) we seem to store in our fat. This is one of the reasons people have a hard time on weight loss programs, they feel lousy. Now we know why!

    My main concern is ridding these toxins from the body while burning fat. Deep cleansing in my opinion is very important to really get deep results.

    Now, the 9 day system or 30 day do include this necessary regime. Your correct in stating that some people will not go without food for a day or two. This stems from fear of their next meal syndrome.

    Identifying this problem is the first step, then comes choosing the path and regime you feel you are capable of achieving. Here is where all the different plans have evolved from.

    Shakes and day time cleansing are very good for maintaining and or loosing weight, nutritional support, mild cleansing, warding off deficiency disease, and overall better health. This still does not address cleansing deep into stored fat cells but better than most plans out there!

    Night cleansing is something I do not understand? This must have evolved from someone who did not want to cleanse for a day so they decided to try it while sleeping.

    HERE IS THE PROBLEM;
    You need water and plenty of it while removing toxins. So what do people do? Do you set the alarm each hour to wakeup and drink a glass? This is not even close to being acceptable as a solution to cleansing.

    Night cleansing WILL however provide very special nutrients for better health”Supplementation”.

    EATING WHILE DEEP CLEANSING;
    I do not go for the egg, salads, celery, and maybe throw in a pork chop style of cleansing either.

    So whats right or wrong? I believe there are benefits in consuming any or all of the products at some level.
    It really depends on how committed you are to your health. Baby steps are better than not taking the FIRST step!

    I can not tell you to just promote the 9 day, 30 day, shakes and cleanse pack etc.

    Here is what I CAN tell you,
    Maximum results are found in the 9 day and 30 day systems. Milder results yet still effective, are yielded in many modified plans out there.

    Choose your level of commitment to yourself, then go for it!

    THE BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY;
    Retention loyalty is residual income. What insures retention? RESULTS!

    Coaching is your most important duty to your patron clients. You are agreeing to help them succeed in their health quest. You want them to have results.
    THIS CREATES RETENTION, THIS INSURES YOUR LONG TERM SUCCESS.

    Think how hard it would be to retain a down line team
    if we had no results. The products work, they create results, and, this is what makes Isagenix unique to the world and secure a business opportunity for everyone.

    There are so many products out there that may support some needs in nutrition but are not yielding the results Isagenix has. Isagenix gives you the advantage!

    Get personable with your patrons and ask them what they want to achieve, what level of commitment they are ready for, and provide help and support. People need comfort in the path they choose and need someone to help them along their journey.

    Explain the original benefits of the 9 and 30 day systems first. Then if necessary, introduce the concept of shakes and daily cleansing.

    Night cleansing does not exist in real toxin removal without hydrating properly. Don’t mislead people to believe otherwise.

    Finding the personal plan for each person = long term health and business success!

    John Anderson Isagenix Formulator Comments on Deep Cleansing for 2 days 

    Your body required support in every way. This includes all the building blocks like a balance of protein, carbs, and fat, fat being necessary for hormone regulatory balance.

    Old fad diets never supported the body causing cannibalism of lean body mass. Ever see someone sagging after a diet fast without nutritional support? its not pretty!

    After you have cleansed for example Monday night at bedtime, day 1 Tuesday, day 2 Wednesday, and wakeup on Thursday morning, your body is ready for the nutrient dense IsaLean shake. This is very necessary, just the same as adding a shake after a hard workout.

    Your body will protect its lean mass, immunity, build muscle, and continue to burn stored fat as additional energy. What a Deal!

    Extended cleansing is not for the general public and 99,5 % of the population. In very few cases would it be appropriate to continue a 3rd day, its just not what your body needs. Restricting Proteins and carbs etc is depriving the natural balance of life.

    Juicing foods;
    I must explain the difference between cleansing and adding liquid foods to your daily regime. The IsaLean shake is food. A blended mixture of vegetables are also food.

    Having your raw foods or lightly cooked foods added to a blender is still a nutritious food keeping in mind, you need 40% of your calories from Carbs, 30% of your calories from Protein, and 30% of your calories from Fats.

    Protein has 4 calories per gram
    Carbs have 4 calories per gram
    Fat has 9 calories per gram

    Many people think fat is bad because of its high caloric content. This is not true, you just eat less, but you need fat in your diet.

    So, happy Cleansing everyone, you can be sure Isagenix is well thought-out. February 1st is my 30th year in the manufacturing and formulating industry.
    As new advancements and studies become available,
    new 22nd century nutrients become available, I will modify and improve products for you to rely and enjoy.

    Improving World Health!
    The Mission Continues
