Shakeology: What It Is + Favorite Recipes

what is shakeology

Sometimes it can feel like getting the nutrition we need can be a chore. There’s so much information about what to eat, what not to eat…it can feel like a vast forest we’re trying to navigate—and who has time for that?

We all have plenty on our plates (no pun intended), and I’m passionate about keeping YOUR life simple.  But just like so many things in life, fitness and nutrition and living our healthiest life is not hard. We just need a map. 

I’ve been drinking Shakeology for nearly a decade now, and it has literally changed my life. It’s delicious and super, super easy to whip up, and these shakes have been absolute game-changers for my health and wellness—and for my entire family. (Yes, that includes my 92-year-old mom!)

We all want to look and feel our best and that means we need to be putting optimal nutrition into our bodies. Shakeology makes this a no-brainer.

Do any of these symptoms sound familiar?

  • Fatigue
  • Weight gain
  • Bloating
  • Constipation
  • Brain fog

It’s possible that you’re not getting the nutrients your body needs to thrive. So many of us live jam-packed, on-the-go lives, making it tricky to get the right minerals, vitamins, and other essential nutrients. Shakeology fills in the gaps with power-packed, plant-based shakes that are crazy easy to make and truly delicious to eat.

These shakes are loaded with goodness, my friends. And once you start drinking them, your body will absolutely crave them. I can tell you that when I miss a shake (or even drink mine later than usual in the day!), I can actually feel it in my body. Shakeology has absolutely become a non-negotiable in my days, and I could not be more grateful for this simple and highly nutritious option. I can’t help but want to spread the news!

Here’s just a taste of what you can expect from each and every Shakeology product:

  • High-quality protein
  • Digestive enzymes
  • Prebiotics & probiotics for gut health
  • Adaptogens
  • Antioxidants
  • Vitamins
  • Minerals
  • Top-notch fiber

If you’ve never tried Shakeology, now’s the time. And I’d love to be the one who hooks you up with this revolutionary nutrition. Trust me, your body will thank you. And with so many flavors to choose from (Café Latte, Chocolate Vegan, Vanilla Whey, Strawberry, and Greenberry, just to name a few!), you’ll find a favorite in no time.

Before we wrap up, I want to leave you with two of my favorite Shakeology recipes. But truly, the sky’s the limit! You can mix and match ingredients to make your shake your own.

Since October, I’ve been drinking this one almost daily! But this seasonal Shakeology flavor comes in limited supplies, so don’t wait to order yours!

This is one of my go-tos! It’s purple and power-packed—and a cinch to make!
