Boost your Body This Season
Revitalize and replenish without regression. How? Dive into a world class nutritional cleanse.
In today’s environment - surrounded by fast food, genetically modified organisms, and more - our bodies need cleansing every now and then. Detoxification is all about releasing bodily impurities and toxic substances while flooding the body with nutrition. As a result, the body is stronger, less stressed and rid of lingering fat.
The Detox Divas have embarked on this path and have taken nutritional cleansing to a higher level with Isagenix products. Jim and Kathy Coover established Isagenix with the vision of transforming health and wellness in people across the globe. Today, Isagenix is the world leader in nutritional cleansing which Detox Divas have recognized. The programs Detox Divas use have proven clinical results which leave some considering it the solution to optimal health.
MyBindi.com’s Ashna Singh caught up with Shruti Owerie, Partner at Detox Divas, and Carolyne Rodrigues, “Isagenix’s Woman of the Year” and international Isagenix trainer, for the FACTS on Isagenix.
Q. Briefly describe your experience using Isagenix products.
Carolyne - As a flight attendant, I was concerned about my health and what I was encountering every time I got on an airplane. I started the program in mid December 2004. I initially dropped 15 pounds and four inches on my waist. I have kept that weight off for eight years by following a maintenance program and doing regular cleanses throughout the year. I feel better at 57 than I did at 37.
Shruti - As a lifelong vegetarian, I was concerned about constantly loading up on carbs, low vitamin B12 levels, insufficient protein intake and low energy in general. I started with the 11 day kick-start, contained within the 30 day program, and felt like a new person after just one week.
I've had my B12 clinically taken at a blood lab to speak credibly about what this line has done for me, and I am amazed to continually report my B12 is at the level of a healthy, meat-eating male. My protein intake from just one shake is the equivalent of two veggie burgers, and I know gram for gram the quality of the protein in our shake is incomparable. Prior to my wedding just last year, I lost 14 lbs, got my skin to the best it has ever been – and my hairdresser also noticed my hair was thicker.
Q. Many health foods/protein shakes have an unappetizing taste. Describe the taste of some the Isagenix products.
The shakes are delicious and filling - some have joked it is their liquid drug and they refuse to start their day without a dose. Many have described the taste and consistency of our shakes being close to a Wendy's Frosty - most of our clients say the other products have no aftertaste, and the Cleanse for Life, another key component of the program, is described as having a light fruit juice taste. The most interesting thing we've noticed about taste is that a few days into the program, the few people that aren't sure about the taste tend to change their mind - this is often attributed to the body likely being brought back into balance with the flood of nutrition our program provides. (For example, the release of heavy metals from the system).
Q. Who should/should not be using Isagenix products?
Anyone who isn't concerned about health, optimal energy and feeling and looking their best should stay away! But seriously, Isagenix is not a weight loss program so athletes, lean people and those who feel they have a "healthy diet" typically benefit as much as someone who wants to drop weight. One of the most interesting things about our programs is that two people, one heavy and one lean, can do the same program and end up with different results - it all depends on what that body needs. People with sugar imbalances see benefits from incorporating our program into their lifestyle.
Most important, we always suggest that if you have a medical issue, you consult with your doctor before starting anything new, including Isagenix. We personally coach each and every person, for free, on their programs and would be happy to ensure this is right for them before and through the program. We also have a dedicated nutritionist on hand we can call and speak to (live) for product-related queries.
Q. For the best results regarding weight maintenance/loss, how do you recommend using the Isagenix program?
If the focus is weight loss (remember, this is for everyone - weight loss is a side benefit that happens if needed), there are a number of support systems to assist each individual client to achieve optimal results and goals and MAINTAIN them. We can't stress enough that people who lose the weight and follow an easy maintenance (which, incidentally, involves eating our proprietary chocolate daily if that's of interest!) will assist in keeping the weight off.
As well, your personal Isagenix coach can offer guidance. We usually suggest that you start with one of our 30 day programs to help you create healthy habits. If you have a lot of weight to lose, you will continue with your initial program until you reach your goals. Once you reach your goal, Isagenix has many maintenance systems designed to help keep your body cleansed and provide the body with optimum nutrition.
Q. Some critics say that the weight returns after the program ends. What are your thoughts on that?
Because we have excellent maintenance programs, gaining weight back will not be an issue. A body that is getting optimal nutrition behaves like the miracle it was intended to be. Much like exercise - and we would say, also like brushing your teeth - if you stop doing what's right for your body, there’s an impact. With all that is going on in the environment and our food supply being depleted of nutrients, it is imperative that we all cleanse on a regular basis and supplement as well. Isagenix provides systems to achieve and maintain these goals.
Still not convinced Detox Divas can improve the quality of your life? Well, perhaps it’s due to the common misconceptions around Isagenix products. Check out our Myth/Reality section for clarity if you dare to detox.
Possible Scenario
I am getting married in July 2012 and I would like to lose some weight and ‘tone up’. When should I start the Isagenix program in order to achieve my desired results before my wedding day?
We do not recommend quick fixes and suggest that you get on one of our programs as soon as it is feasible. Isagenix is educating people about following healthy habits and creating a healthy lifestyle, not fad dieting in any way. Remember, once the weight is gone you will not keep dropping to an unhealthy weight with our products so the idea is to keep nourishing the body. As well, brides are looking for less stress, better skin, better hair and a toned physique - the body can deliver all this with Isagenix, as we have seen with hundreds of clients time and again. We would be happy to connect anyone to references and testimonials.
