How healthy is your protein powder?
May 17, 2011
Are you concerned that your protein powder might not be as healthy as you first thought?
Do you feel bloated, uncomfortable or sick after ingesting whey or soy based protein powders?
If so chances are you may be allergic or intolerant to one or more of the ingredients. Additives such as artificial sweeteners and flavours, whey and soy isolates, huge doses of synthetic amino acids and vitamins can wreak havoc with your digestion and health, especially if used long term.
With this in mind my quest to find a truly healthy protein powder began and to date the best product by far is Pit Bull Raw Protein Superfood Formula. It is a plant based powder that has not been heat treated so it retains all of its original goodness.
The main ingredient is bio-fermented whole brown rice that delivers 80% protein. This unique fermentation process results in an easy to digest protein powder with a full and perfectly balanced amino acid profile. Being hypo-allergenic it’s easily assimilated and utilised by the body so it won’t build up causing gas, indigestion or mucous.
Other ingredients include;
~ Brazil nut protein, which is high in the antioxidant selenium.
~ Goji berry extract, known to be one of the most nutritious(and tasty) fruits.
~ Maca powder, an ancient superfood eaten by the incas for superior strength and vitality
~ Mesquite, a nutrient rich food know for balancing blood sugar and naturally high in the amino acid, lysine.
So if you’re wanting to lose fat and build muscle, increase endurance, balance your blood sugar, stop cravings and get a boost of superfood nutrition, consider Pit Bull Protein.

Infrared sauna-relax while you detox.
May 17, 2011
Saunas have long been used for healing and rejuvenation. Muscles are relaxed and the nervous system soothed. Blood flow to the skin is enhanced, stimulating the elimination of toxins and metabolic waste through the sweating process.
Infrared saunas take comfort to a new level, with more mild temperatures than traditional saunas yet more deeply penetrating waves of heat energy. In fact sweat analysis studies have shown that 5-6 times more toxins are found in infrared induced sweat than in regular sweat.
Other benefits include;
~ enhanced skin function and tone
~ increased blood flow and oxygenation
~ stimulates metabolism-burns up to 1000 calories/30 mins
~ breaks down cellulite
~ repaires injured tissue
~ strengthens the immune system
Infrared sauna on its own has great health benefits but combined with other detox protocols such as juicing, superfoods, exercise or colonic irrigation, amazing results can be achieved quickly, just ask us how!
Just want to try the sauna? No problem, its only $20 for 30 minutes.
