"I Don't Know Why I Go To Extremes"

 

Why Balance?

These days it seems like everybody is looking for THE EDGE. This has lead to the popularity of a variety of products such as protein powders (protein FAQs) and carbohydrate mixes and bars. Both of these products can be very useful when you are working out and a need a quick burst or want to add muscle mass. However, it is also important to eat a good balanced diet everyday that has both protein and carbohydrates.

Both protein and carbohydrates are important for building muscle and staying healthy. In addition, dietary fat is essential in order to access you body's stored reserves of energy.

The best solution is a diet that combines all three types of nutrition in a balanced ratio.

Do you remember those 30-second commercials during the Saturday morning cartoons that told you to eat a balanced diet? Well guess what – They were right!

Balance powders offer a nutritional supplement that follow the 40-30-30 nutrition ratio. The concept is that 40% of your calories should come from carbohydrates, 30% from protein and 30% from dietary fat. What a concept!… Well okay, so you’ve known about balanced nutrition since you were 7 years old but somehow the nutrition companies have spent the last ten years trying to convince you that you should go to extremes. There have been virtually no balanced products available. After all, America loves the quick fix.

It should be becoming clear by now: Not only can a well-balanced, 40-30-30 product help you get bigger and stronger, it can also keep you healthier by supplementing your "normal diet" which is probably often out of balance.

Approximately 30% of Americans have trouble regulating their blood sugar. The standard American diet which is high in carbohydrates does not help. Balance powder has been proven effective in helping to maintain stable blood sugar levels for both diabetics and hypoglycemics. To find out if you might be hypoglycemic click here. (Most hypoglycemics are unaware of the problem and suffer symptoms ranging from memory loss to shakiness, lethargy, lightheadedness and black outs).

In addition to helping build muscle mass, keeping you healthier and regulating your blood sugar, Balance 40-30-30 promotes safe weight loss. It tastes great (I'm not just saying that) and it's a great snack or meal replacement that can keep you satisfied for 3+ hours for less than 200 calories. I personally drink a balance shake for breakfast every morning. It's much healthier than cereal or bacon & eggs. In addition the whole process of preparation, drinking and clean up takes me under 5 minutes (I love the extra sleep). My energy levels are more consistent throughout the morning and my symptoms of hypoglycemia have virtually disappeared.

This must sound like a product that promises the world: gain muscle, lose weight, stay healthier and even sleep later in the morning. The catch is that the concept of balanced nutrition is nothing revolutionary. The amazing part is that other nutritional companies haven't been distributing similar products for years. The only scientific breakthrough is the 40-30-30 ratio that is optimized for human nutrition and this ratio has been well known since the 80's. I’ve been recommending Balance 40-30-30 to all my friends. It just makes too much common sense to ignore.
