Essential Nutrition That Fuel My Workout & Keep Me Going by USANA
Well we eat
out quite often and on top of that I exercise regularly; sometimes I wonder is
my body getting enough nutrients. Plus we are exposed to free radicals and pollution every day. Do you know that free radicals can destroy our
healthy molecules and causes chain reaction of damage to various parts of our
body cells. Nothing is more valuable than our health because when we lose our
health our loved ones and family suffer with us too.
Essential Nutrition That Fuel My Workout & Keep Me Going by USANA |
So two
months ago I was introduced to these supplements, pre and post workout shakes by
USANA Malaysia. Actually I knew about USANA from my friend some time ago, she
told me after she started taking USANA supplements she feels more energetic and
her overall well-being improved. I can see her gradual improvements as well, that
gives me an urge to try it too.
USANA Health
Sciences was founded in 1992 by Dr. Myron Wentz, PhD an internationally
recognized microbiologist, immunologist, and pioneer in the development of
human cell culture technology and infectious disease diagnoses. USANA Health
Sciences is a state-of-the-art manufacturer of nutritional supplements, foods,
and personal care products.
Before I
started taking any supplement I asked myself should I take nutritional
supplements or not? Then I do some checking and understand that supplement does
not replace our healthy diet, however proper supplements can bridge the gap
between what our body needs in optimal nutrition, and what most of us actually
get from food. Sometimes our body might not get sufficient nutrients to repair
the damage cells.
These
are the supplements that started to take when I was training for my Tokyo Marathon
2017 back in February. I have Essentials, CoQuinone, Procosa, MyShake, Whey
Protein Plus and Fibergy.
USANA Essentials, Proflavanol C, Procosa II, CoQuinone |
Essentials
The
Essentials which consist of AO Pro Tablet and Chelated Mineral are my
foundation or basic that we need daily. It provides necessary vitamins and
minerals for to keep me going and also support my immune system.
Proflavanol
C
Proflavanol
C combines antioxidant bioflavonoids from grape-seed extract with high potency
Poly C to maintain our health and support our immune and cardiovascular systems.
Our body lost anti-oxidant when we workout so we have to replenish it back and
it also help to maintain our skin youthfulness.
Procosa
II
Procosa
II delivers glucosamine HCL to help maintain healthy cartilage and joints. This
is important for those 30 years old and above plus those who run regularly need
to maintain our joints and bones as well.
CoQuinone
CoQuinone
provides our body with highly absorbable coenzyme Q10. This is important for
those who workout, runner or athletics because this vitamin generate energy
needed to power our cells. For those who get tired easy I would suggest you
take this supplement.
USANA Fibergy Plus |
Fibergy
Plus
This is
so convenient to drink, just add a tablespoon in my water or juice every
morning or after lunch. This is a delicious and convenient way to increase my
fibre intake and maintain a healthy bowel system.
MyShake and Whey Protein Plus |
MyShake
and Whey Protein Plus
I take MyShake
and Whey Protein Plus together, there are two types of MyShake its available in
Soy or Whey. I have MyShake as my breakfast before I go to work, I mixed it in
my juice or make smoothies. It’s so delicious and healthy. Sometime when I am
hungry instead of going out for teh tarik and roti canai I will make MyShake in
the office. It’s fast, healthy and fulfilling too.
MyShake Smoothies with peaches and apricots |
MyShake
Whey and Whey Protein Plus are great for my pre and post workout drink. Usually
1 hour before my training I mix 2 to 3 scoops of MyShake, add about 10 grams of
Whey Protein Plus and add 400ml water in BlenderBottle, shake and drink it. I
even bring it to Tokyo before my marathon I had MyShake with Whey Protein Plus
is gives me the energy and sustainability to complete my marathon.
MyShake Whey & Whey Protein Plus for my pre and post workout |
For the
supplements I take 1 tablet each per day and Fibergy Plus also I drink it once
a day. MyShake I will drink it as and when I need it, usually is once a day but
during my training days I drink 2 or 3 times day.
Overall,
after taking all these essential nutrition supplements from USANA I see the
improvements in term of my body performance and also overall well-being. I don’t
fall sick easily and also my energy level increased. When our body have enough
nutrients it will perform better, it helps me in my training and also my
marathon.

ReplyDeleteFor Peter and I, our time to work out is every evening after dinner and the dishes are done. It’s so routine now that our kids even know when it's workout time and they ask us if for some reason we don’t start our workout right away! Best meal replacement shakes
