Plexus 96® Pumpkin Spice Protein Shake

Pumpkins are fall’s signature squash. From Halloween to Thanksgiving, pumpkins take a starring role in everything from pumpkin spice latte. There’s nothing like a slice, or sometimes two, of pumpkin pie to finish off your Thanksgiving meal.

The creamy vanilla flavor of our protein powder complements the richness of the nutmeg and cinnamon. And, we’ve loaded this recipe with tons of real pumpkin. It’s as authentic tasting as you’ll get.

In case you didnt know smoking was bad ... on top of everything else it contains SUGAR

If you SMOKE, check this out!! Plexus block is good for blocking carbs in food and alcohol, but did you know it's also helping people QUIT smoking!! Wonder how?

🚬 Cigarettes contain A LOT of sugar.. .up to 1/2 a teaspoon of sugar PER cigarette! In fact- the tobacco industry is the second largest consumer of sugar in the United States!!

 Plexus BLOCK actually helps to block 48% of the sugar in cigarettes from being absorbed in the body, which helps to curb the sugar cravings th...at smokers get from smoking! Ever try to quit smoking and find yourself snacking on and eating everything in sight 🍬🍕🍪🍦(which causes you to gain weight, which then makes you want to smoke again)? It's because your body CRAVES the sugar from the cigarettes!

Crazy, right?! If you or someone you know is trying to quit, Plexus BLOCK might be a great alternative to those gums and patches!

NINE SIGNS That You Have a Leaky Gut

Let's educate ourselves on leaky gut and what it causes...

as per Dr. Josh Axe:
Leaky Gut Syndrome is a condition where undigested proteins like gluten, toxins and microbes can pass into the blood stream. Another name for this condition is “intestinal permeability” which means the “tight junctions” or the gateway between the intestinal wall and bloodstream have been damaged and are allowing the undigested particles to pass through the intestinal wall. When these particles enter the bloodstream it will cause system wide inflammation and can initiate an immune response in the body.   Over time if leaky gut is not healed, it can lead to food sensitivities, arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, skin issues like eczema, hypothyroidism, adrenal fatigue, depression, anxiety, ADHD, nutrient malabsorption and autoimmune disease. Most doctors will tell you that repairing leaky gut is difficult and it takes time

NINE SIGNS That You Have a Leaky Gut
  1. Digestive issues such as gas, bloating, diarrhea or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). 
  2. Seasonal allergies or asthma. ...
  3. Hormonal imbalances such as PMS or PCOS. 
  4. Diagnosis of an autoimmune disease such as rheumatoid arthritis, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, lupus, psoriasis, or celiac disease.
  5. Diagnosis of chronic fatigue or fibromyalgia. 
  6. Mood and mind issues such as depression, anxiety, ADD or ADHD. 
  7. Skin issues such as acne, rosacea, or eczema. 
  8. Diagnosis of candida overgrowth. 
  9. Food allergies or food intolerances.

If you want to heal your skin, you have to heal your gut ... if you want to heal your gut, you have to get Plexus TriPlex !!


 After reading the article, The gut-skin connection: how altered gut function affects the skin, by Chris Kresser, it hit so close to home.    I don't know if it's being a ginger, or the less than desirable DNA I inherited from my Maternal Grandfather's family .... but my skin seems to have a mind of it's own sometimes, that is until I started taking Plexus TriPlex !!

From Chris Kresser's above article, says it all (his words, my images):
Researchers as far back as 1930 suspected a link between gut and skin health, and modern research has now confirmed the importance of this relationship. And as a clinician who works with people on these conditions, I’d go as far as to say this:  If you want to heal your skin, you have to heal your gut.
Happy Gut, Healthy You™
The gut flora also influences the skin. Substance P is a neuropeptide produced in the gut, brain and skin that plays a major role in skin conditions. Altered gut microbiota promotes the release of substance P in both the gut and the skin, and probiotics can attenuate this response. (6) The gut microbiota influences lipids and tissue fatty acid profiles, and may influence sebum production as well as the fatty acid composition of the sebum. (7) This may explain why a Russian study found that 54% of acne patients have significant alterations to the gut flora (8), and a Chinese study involving patients with seborrheic dermatitis also noted disruptions in the normal gut flora. 2
Helps Balance Gut Flora
Probiotics improve skin conditions   Another line of evidence suggesting a connection between the gut and skin is the observation that probiotics improve skin conditions. Oral probiotics have been shown to decrease lipopolysaccharide, improve intestinal barrier function and reduce inflammation. The first formal case report series on the value of using lactobacilli to treat skin conditions was published in 1961 by a physician named Robert Siver. He followed 300 patients who were given a commercially available probiotic and found that 80 percent of those with acne had some clinical improvement. 3 In a more recent Italian study involving 40 patients, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum in addition to standard care led to better clinical outcomes than standard care alone. (9) And another recent study of 56 patients with acne showed that the consumption of a Lactobacillus fermented dairy beverage improved clinical aspects of acne over a 12-week period. (10)

TriPlex ~ Happy Gut, Healthy You

I can't count the number of times I've been asked "what Plexus product should I start with?" .... the EASIEST question ever !!! Kick-start your body for a Healthier YOU !!!


Help Balance Gut Flora ~ IMPROVE OVERALL HEALTH ~ Promote Weight Loss

So...Health Canada or the FDA does not require any sort of studies on supplements ! Any company can promote weight loss supplements and say they're "safe" with no science backing it up.
Ask for scientific studies before you purchase any "weight loss" supplement from any company...
Plexus didn't have to but they did scientific, clinical studies on Plexus Slim and TriPlex at great cost!

It was double blind (the participants and administers had no idea what they were getting), multi center, placebo controlled, randomized study with 175 participants. (AKA: they weren't messing around!)
 
RESULTS: Slim alone treatment group lost an average of 5.4 lb and the slim placebo group lost an average of 3.1 lb. over 8 weeks
The TriPlex group lost 7.2 pounds, while the placebo group showed .2lb weight loss over 8 weeks.
They've got the formulations right folks! Don't waste your time or money on something that's not the real deal.
And the weight loss? It's actually just a side effect of a healthy gut and balanced blood sugar, using plant based formulations.
