Sugar Addicts Rejoice! A Testimonial

“I am totally sold on this product.”

A testimonial from a PGX’er who put an end to her sugar cravings with PGX.

PGX’er, A.N., wrote in to tell us that PGX had helped her in a way she never thought possible; it helped stop her sugar cravings! We were thrilled to hear from A.N. about her success with PGX. Read A.N.’s full testimonial below.

“Hi, I just want to thank you for this product!! I bought my first bottle last Thursday and am amazed!! I was a sugar addict. I was always craving sweets and it was wrecking my diet. I had looked at PGX several times and never bought it. Then one day I said ?well, I think I will give it a try?. I am totally sold on this product. I have not had a craving for sweets since I started taking this and my insides feel calm, that’s the only way I can explain it, a calmness inside me. I feel satisfied all the time now. I am doing the Belly Fat Cure by Jorge Cruise and really like the diet and PGX is a good additive. I need to lose about 30 lbs and I know I will do it! A very satisfied customer!

A.N.”

We want to hear from you! Share you PGX success story with us.

Tasty Tuesday: The Paleo Edition

Welcome to the Paleo Edition of Tasty Tuesday!

If you’re following the Paleo Diet, here are some tasty breakfast ideas.

Seeing how yesterday we discussed what constitutes the Paleo Diet and what doesn’t, I thought that we could explore some different paleo recipe options today for Tasty Tuesday. With restrictions on several food categories that many people would describe as an integral part of their daily diet (think dairy and cereal grains), I can appreciate that finding delicious paleo recipes may be a bit of a challenge – especially, for breakfast.

Fortunately for all of you paleo eaters out there, we have found a cumulation of 20 Paleo Breakfast Ideas from the blog, Life With 4 Boys, that all look absolutely drool-worthy! From egg benedict to waffles, these recipes look so good that people who aren’t even following the paleo diet may want to try them. And don’t forget to sprinkle your PGX on beforehand!

Hop Off the Blood Sugar Roller Coaster

The ride is finally over. Get your blood sugar levels back in check with PGX.

Considering the food landscape within our modern society, most of the foods that we consume in the Western diet are highly processed. “Fast foods” especially are laden with highly refined carbohydrates, which are rapidly digested by the body, causing excessive peaks in our blood sugar levels after we eat. As a result, our bodies tend to release insulin to bring blood sugar back down again, creating chronic blood sugar level imbalances. With an imbalance, blood sugar levels erratically rise and fall, which may have led to the name “the blood sugar roller coaster.”

Cue PGX:

PGX Daily helps control and balance blood sugar levels by counteracting the effects of carbohydrate-heavy meals. How does PGX do this? By helping you feel fuller faster and satisfied longer due to its highly viscous fibre complex. When added to your meals, or consumed pre-meal, PGX can help slow down your digestion. PGX also slows the conversion of carbohydrates and other foods into sugar, resulting in a more gradual release of glucose into the bloodstream. This means that blood sugar levels are less likely to spike when using PGX. And when they don’t spike, blood sugar levels don’t tend to fall far enough to trigger excess production of insulin.

Learn more about avoiding the blood sugar roller coaster.

Healthy Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

It’s true! Healthy and cookie can appear in the same sentence!

Satisfy your sweet tooth with this tasty and actually healthy cookie recipe from The Skinny Fork!

You an give in to your inner cookie monster without regret. It is completely possible! I know it seems rather oxymoronic to think of cookies as healthy but it’s a fabulous thing to think of and know to be real. What it is really that makes cookies so unhealthy? Tons of sugar, oil, white flour, butter… all things that can actually be replaced!

The Skinny Fork recipe for Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies does just that: food substitution! For example, instead of butter or oil, you’ll find this recipe calls for apple sauce!

Try this recipe and add a dash of PGX Daily Singles for an even healthier treat and that extra fibre kick!

So without further ado, click to view the Skinny Fork recipe for Healthy Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies (it has some chocolate in it too!).

Shop Yourself Healthy

No more aimless walking in the grocery store. It’s time to shop ourselves healthy!

I can’t even count how many times I walk over to the refrigerator, stare at its contents and close the door empty handed. From there, I cruise over to the pantry and start inspecting it’s contents!

The crave monster has just surfaced and it’s forcing me to begin the hunt for snacks! All too often this leads to snacking on things like chips and dip or if nothing else, buttered toast (I swear I could live on toasted bread with butter and I would be quite happy!). So what can one do to prevent this kind of craving grazing? It all starts at the grocery store…

Check out this infographic and learn how to shop yourself slim and healthy! Don’t forget to add some fibre into your diet! PGX can help control that blood sugar roller coaster for you 😉

Is the Paleo Diet for You?

Everybody’s talking about it – but is this the diet for you?

Learn what following the Paleo Diet entails.

Although the paleo diet has never appealed to me (I enjoy dairy too much), it has become all the rage among many health conscious folks. Especially popular amongst those that are involved in Cross Fit training, the paleo diet emulates the diet of cavemen. What exactly does this mean, you ask? Well, the Paleo Diet, as defined by thepaleodiet.com, is “based upon eating wholesome, contemporary foods from the food groups our hunter-gatherer ancestors would have thrived on during the Paleolithic era, the time period from about 2.6 million years ago to the beginning of the agricultural revolution, about 10,000 years ago.”

So, what’s on the Paleo Menu?

  • Fresh Meat, such as beef, pork or poultry
  • Fish and other seafood
  • Fresh Fruit
  • Fresh Vegetables
  • Seeds
  • Nuts
  • Oils, such as olive oil, coconut oil or flaxseed oil

What’s excluded from the menu?

  • Dairy products
  • Cereal grains
  • Legumes
  • Refined sugars
  • Processed food

What do you think? Is this a diet you would try? Let us know in the comments below or on our Facebook page.
