Being a RAW food Vegan, I am thoroughly convinced that my body would not get everything it needed if not for my precious Sunrider foods. I have 2 to 3 Vitashakes and 1 NuPlus EVERY day, no matter what. As I have mentioned in before, I cannot tolerate anything that is a soy ISOLATE. Vitashakes are made up of 5 different fermented (aids digestion) WHOLE soybeans which address the systems in the body and create BALANCE. My body LOVES soy in this whole food form and I know I am completely nourished on a cellular level...
Suggestion: before you write soy off, make sure you are not consuming genetically modified isolated soy protein (read your labels, particularly your "protein" shakes...soy isolate, whey isolate, ANY isolate = TROUBLE!). The body reacts as if it is a chemical and cannot properly assimilate it. This form of soy has been known to cause cancer markers in women and food intolerances thus creating a fear and controversy of soy...which based on how many soy products are GMO, is totally understandable!
Soy, in it's whole bean form is actually highly beneficial and a wonderful source of protein! Just be AWARE of where you are getting it from.
If you still have an issue, NuPlus makes a no-bean formula which I usually recommend for babies, the elderly and those with serious health opportunities or those who are TRULY allergic to soy.
Some benefits are:
- Feeds every cell in your body
- Helps balance blood sugar
- Provides nutrients for calm peaceful energy
- Diminishes cravings for foods which cause energy loss and mood swing
- Nourishes joints and muscles
- Nourishes defense system
- Gives energy to brain (promoting mental and emotional stability)
- Relaxes for better sleep
- Helps improve muscle tone
- Promotes healthy cholesterol levels and helps burn fat
- Helps the body regulate metabolism
- Contains all 5 flavors and 5 colors of food (balance)
NUPLUS recipe is over 3,000 years old. It was originally called “Angels Porridge.” It was known to be a potent body tonic for strength, longevity, and beauty. This porridge was revered by the Emperors of China for its potent strengthening and adapting properties. Nuplus comes in 5 flavors: Simply Herbs, Naturally Plain, Pina Banana, Mixed Berry, Apple-Cinnamon and "Regular" (Regular contains no beans and is used for babies under 3 months and people with extremely weak digestion).
VITASHAKE is an Americanized or "super-sized" version of Nuplus. Dr. Chen uses Nuplus and then chelates vitamins and minerals to the original formula. It also has FOS which assists the body in growing healthy probiotics (good bacteria) in the intestines. He also added more protein rich whole food and fiber to this formula. It is a bit more filling then Nuplus and stays with you longer. It comes in 2 flavors, Strawberry and Cocoa.
Consume them every day and experience positive changes in your body!!
These simple to use foods can be mixed in water or made into a decadent shake. Coconut juice, cocoa Vitashake with a little bit of banana and ice is my personal favorite!!
Don't forget to "chew" your Shake. Digestion begins in the mouth. If you do not "chew" your shake you could experience bloating as this whole food needs the alkaline saliva in your mouth to be fully digested and metabolized. Also never eat anything in a rush or under stress. Take 5-10 deep breaths before eating. You will experience better energy, digestion and metabolism of ALL of your food. This is key to fat loss!!
NuPlus
The name means nutrition plus. It is not an isolated protein powder. To the contrary, it is a very concentrated blend of Coix Lachryma-jobi, Soybean Seed, Chinese Yam, Fox Nut, Lotus Seed, Lotus Root, Waterlily Bulb, Green Bean, Red Bean, Black Bean, White Bean and Imperate Root. This is a balanced blend of complex carbohydrates that combine concentrated herbs with soybeans, other legumes, and natural freeze dried fruit. The ancient Chinese developed this as a very unique combination to feed all the body systems and keep the body healthy. It contains naturally occurring bioflavonoids, antioxidants, amino acids, and other beneficial phytochemicals. Below is some information from pharmacological research on various ingredients.
Coix Lachryma-jobi
Pharmacological research shows that Coix Fruit, reduces spasms, inhibits tumors, lowers blood sugar, stimulates general immunity, reduces inflammation, reduce muscle tension and lowers cholesterol. The components of Coix Fruit includes glycerides of palmitic acid, myriatic acid, 8-octadecenoid acid, coixenolide, and phytin, help maintain a healthy immune system, nervous system, and normal cholesterol levels. In Japan, Coix Fruit is known as a natural treatment for arthritis and joint disease.
Soybean Seed
Pharmacological research shows that Soybean decreases hot flashes during menopause, inhibits the growth of some tumors, reduces harmful cholesterols without effecting beneficial cholesterols, lowers blood pressure, and reduces fatigue, obesity, and hypoglycemia.
Chinese Yam
Pharmacological research shows that Chinese Yam exerts a general nutritive effect. The constituents of Chinese Yam – starches, proteins, choline, mucine, and allantoin, sugars such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose, as well as amino acids such as phenylalanine-help regulate metabolism and digestion.
Lotus Seed/Root
Pharmacological research shows that Lotus Root inhibits bleeding. It also shows that Lotus Seed relaxes smooth muscles, neutralizes toxicity and inhibits infection. The seeds contain asparagin, fats, proteins and some starches, and trace elements of calcium, magnesium, zinc and iron. They are taken to tonify the spleen, reinforce the kidneys and nourish the blood. Other conditions treated with Lotus Seeds include palpitations, insomnia and irritability.
Possible benefits of eating NuPlus
Easily digestable, improved fat metabolism, help build lean muscle tissue, increase stamina and energy, promotes general feeling of well-being, reduced cravings for unwholesome food, enhanced concentration, better sleep, and many other great results!
