In fact, our five-year long research project on this sacred plant has revealed over 600 potential preventive and therapeutic applications, as well as 175 distinct beneficial physiological effects. This entire database of 1,585 ncbi-hyperlinked turmeric abstracts can be downloaded as a PDF at our Downloadable Turmeric Document page, and acquired either as a retail item or with 200 GMI-tokens, for those of you who are already are members and receive them automatically each month.  Given the sheer density of research performed on this remarkable spice,

5 Reasons to Snack on Whey Thins!

Snacking is a BIG part of our day! Nearly one in six adults gets more than 70 percent of their total daily calories from snacks. The problem, however, is most goodies are loaded with salt or sugar, high in calories, and contain preservatives you can’t pronounce.
Not Isagenix® Whey Thins!  Available in Barbecue and Sour Cream & Chive, each individually wrapped, 100-calorie snack features a bevy of benefits including support for curbing mid-day hunger, helping to fulfill your daily recommended intake of nutrients and trimming unwanted pounds.
How? Simple! It comes down to nutrition. Snacking should fuel your body and increase your energy, not just fill you with empty calories. And, like Whey Thins, all healthy snacks should be:
1. Rich in protein. Treats packed with protein are more likely to satisfy your craving than those that don’t.
Did you know new research shows we may need double the current recommended amounts of protein to maintain muscle as we age? It’s true.
2. Low in Calories. Portion-controlled snacks are a great way to stave off unwanted, extra calories. In fact, light bites that contain 100 calories or less per serving are a great way to keep your metabolism working, which in turn, aids in your weight-loss journey.
3.  Nutritious. Whole grains supply your body with a steady stream of energy. Other sources of carbohydrates such as refined sugars can cause your blood sugar to spike followed by a crash and feelings of fatigue.
Wondering what the difference is between a good carb and a bad carb? Watch this short, one-minute video by the Isagenix Research and Science team.
4. Flavorful. According to a study in the Journal of Nutrition savory-flavored foods do a better job decreasing your susceptibility to overeat compared to sweet, sour, bitter or bland foods. Translation: consuming more savory-flavored foods will help you lose weight over time.
5.  Kid-approved. Nibbling is a key component to getting your child through the day. Instead of allowing your child to raid the vending machine, provide them with a healthy snack that will keep them satisfied between meals....This entry was posted in Products and tagged Whey Thins by Christine W..




At last, a savory and filling Isagenix snack with 10 grams of protein in 100-calorie packs. It’s time to ditch the chips and start snacking smart. Get ready for a savory pizazz that will make your taste buds jump for joy. Introducing Whey Thins, the filling, protein-packed crackers that support weight loss. Whey Thins comes in delicious Barbecue and delectable Sour Cream & Chive flavors. Whey Thins brings you 10 grams of protein with only 100 calories per single-serving pack, so you can conquer hunger and curb cravings.

The Reasons to Love Chocolate


chocolate 640X400
Chocolate is not only delicious, but shown to support brain and heart health.
It’s that time of year again! There’s no denying the love in the air and the massive amounts of chocolate about to be given. But instead of mindless noshing of chocolate bars and delectable goodies that come in heart-shaped boxes, let’s remember the real reason why chocolate is so good – it’s actually good for us!
Chocolate is no stranger to science and studies showing it has benefits for health, including both the heart and brain. This is partly due to the cocoa in chocolate, which is rich in polyphenols and flavonoids. Some chocolates contain more cocoa than others, and a general rule is that the darker the chocolate the more antioxidant benefit, but for any chocolate, here’s why the cocoa composition matters:
Cardiovascular Benefit
A review of cocoa and chocolate consumption published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition revealed possible heart-healthy benefits, most likely due to the rich antioxidant-containing flavonoids found in cocoa and in some varieties of chocolate. Clinical and epidemiological studies have also linked flavonoid-rich cocoa to improved heart health biomarkers (1-3).
Cognitive Benefit
A little chocolate snack can seem like the perfect pick-me-up, and that’s because it is. It’s not just the delicious taste that seems to enhance mood, but cocoa’s exceptional concentration of polyphenols. A growing number of studies are confirming that for this reason cocoa consumption lifts mood and mental function (4).
For example, a study published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology supports the link between improved mood and the intake of cocoa. Through a randomized controlled trial, researchers evaluated the consumption of chocolate and found it did have positive effects on “feel good” brain receptors due to the content of natural chemical compounds in the cocoa (5).
Keep in mind that not all chocolates are made with health in mind. Some sacrifice all for the sake of flavor in the form of high calories, saturated fat, and sugar. Really it’s all about moderation. Limiting yourself to 7 ounces of quality chocolate a week is not only good for you, but is also a great way to satisfy your taste buds.
The next time you are craving something sweet, instead of indulging in a full-sized candy bar, try an IsaDelight Plus. These chocolate squares, are infused with green tea extract, amino acids, B vitamins, minerals, and provide only 60 calories. With all of the benefits associated with cocoa, you can enjoy a chocolate treat this Valentine’s Day guilt free.
