Pure Whey Protein Isolate


For those of us who work out, and even those who don't, getting enough protein in one's diet is of immense importance. The thing is, most protein powder's don't mix cleanly (I mean without lumps) and taste just bad. I have had so many that just make me gag and with running season upon us I really was happy to find this product.

When I went to mix the protein powder to make the drink, I realized my husband had taken my shaker bottle on me (grrr) so I had to improvise. I know you can't really just dump protein powder in a cup and expect it to not be lumpy, so I used a measuring cup and a wire whisk and it worked fantastic!


It even went into the glass clean! Which surprised me because I half expected there to be residue in the measuring glass, but there wasn't.



Now for the flavor! I got the Natural Dutch Chocolate Flavor because hey, who doesn't like chocolate? Also knowing how bad some protein powder's can taste I figured that was my best bet. (You can also purchase it in Natural Alpine Vanilla, which I am sure is fabulous.) When I opened the package I got this amazing, chocolate aroma. I was excited that it smelled good and even more excited that it tasted REALLY good!!! I was SO surprised! Went down smooth and tasted light! It didn't thicken up like almost every protein shake I have had. Some people don't like that sort of texture so if that is you, this protein powder is right up your ally!

Now for the real reason to buy this powder. It is Non-GMO, which for me is HUGE. This powder is Kosher Certified, lactose free, has no protein complex and no amino acid spiking. For those of you who don't know, protein and amino acid spiking is when companies add extra cheap amino acids like taurine, glycine, glutamines, and creatine to their powders to lower cost. With Summit Nutritions Whey Protein you don't have to worry about that at all.



Here are more specs:

  • 92% protein by weight
  • 26g full spectrum amino acid
  • 25g protein
  • 5.22g Glycopeptides (GMP)
  • 5.6g BCCAs
  • 4.8g glutamine precursors
  • Gluten free, soy free and BSE/TSE free
  • NO fat, sugar or cholesterol
  • Made in USA
I could go on and on about how awesome this is and fill plenty of space, so I just took a picture of the front and back for you to see for yourself! (Front picture is the top one.)


The other thing I like about the powder is that it keeps you full but is easy enough to drink before or after a workout. After a workout it can be hard for me to drink anything but water, but with Summit Nutritions Pure Whey Protein I haven't had a problem getting my protein in after a workout. I really like this product and highly recommend it to everyone!

Dance With Me, Momma

Image
Sometimes one day in our life is just what we need to keep on moving forward. A little inspiration, encouragement and hope entering into our sometimes dismal worlds. Today just happened to be one of those days for me. My family and I went on a short hike at a new park my husband found. We climbed up steep hills meant for mountain bikes and followed small trails intended for wild animals. We were able to explore the woods and enjoy God's beautiful world and enjoy the peace and serenity only that can bring. What touched me most deeply was when Benjamin stopped me about 3/4 of the way through our hike. He pulled my face close to his and whispered in his sweet voice, "Dance with me, momma." So right there in the middle of the woods with only Lawrence looking on, I danced with my 4 year old. He hummed a sweet tune and spun me on the forest floor like we were in a ball room and I was a princess and him a prince. Then he grabbed my face and kissed my lips and said, "

WINNER ANNOUNCED! Forskolin Coleus - An All Natural Weight Loss Supplement Review & Giveaway

Image
Hosted By  Beautifully Poor Sponsored By Nourishing Well Nutritionals I am a skeptic when it comes to weight loss supplements and have never gotten into the fads. Lately though, I cannot seem to lose weight very well. I won't take anything that isn't natural and I know it takes work to get into shape and lose weight. As we all know to well, body fat is extremely stubborn! I exercise regularly and eat healthy, so this supplement was just the thing to kick start my fat loss journey. I started taking this on April 8th of this year. At the same time, I started doing 30 minutes of strength training in the morning BEFORE I ate breakfast. Also, having a glass of something caffeinated like black or green tea or a cup of black coffee FREE of sugar and creamer, can help kick start your body and give you energy. After the half hour of exercise, I wait about 20 minutes and then take 2 Forskolin Coleus pills. Within 20-30 minutes of taking those, I eat a well balanced mea
