Gut Health!

Plexus is the second fastest growing company in the health field. Who is # 1? Good question! It is Crescendo Bioscience, a research company. They develop molecular biomarker tests to research autoimmune and inflammatory diseases such as RA (rheumatoid arthritis). As research into autoimmunity grows, it continues to point to gut health. Inflammation, bacteria and insulin resistance (blood sugar balance). 

Loving This Journey and This is WHY!

Let's talk a little bit about my WHY! 

Aside from all the fabulous health benefits, I'm making some money to pay towards my products!  Each check goes up!!  Which is great - but I was truly struggling with my health.  Some people would say I was in great shape and that's what it looked like; to them! 

I have been struggling with skin and gut issues my entire life - not to mention the anxiety attacks I was having; which caused me to hardly sleep.  I now have amazing energy throughout the day, I sleep so much better, my skin is finally clear of cystic acne, my anxiety is pretty non-existent, and I'm going to the bathroom everyday!  This is HUGE for me and I couldn't be more thankful I started Plexus. 

Another reason I started Plexus is for financial freedom.  So paying for my products is wonderful but I'd like to start paying some bills and becoming DEBT FREE with money in the bank!  When I have a family of my own, I want to be able to provide an amazing life for them.  From the time I was born, I was living on the streets or in motels with my Mother until I was taken away from her when I was 7 years old.  I was placed with my aunt until I moved out when I was 17.  So you could say I know what it takes to keep a roof over my head.  I know everyone says they don't want their children to struggle the way they did but that's why I'm starting now!  I want my children to have the best, without a single worry!  That's my ultimate goal, truly...

THAT'S WHY I PLEXUS!!!

Physicians Are on Board with Plexus Too!

It's official. YET ANOTHER Doctor has joined Plexus!

Category: She is a Board Certified OB/GYN, Hormone Specialist

Karen Rich signed her personal physician up as an Ambassador!!

Here's what Karen had to say, 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I'm very happy to report that the newest Ambassador on my team is my PHYSICIAN! Dr. Jackson was so impressed with the improvement in my health (normal blood panels) and weight loss (almost 50 pounds since January 1) that she wants to be able to offer it to her other patients that face the same struggle. 

She worked with me for 2 years as I suffered with Adrenal Exhaustion and extreme fatigue and migraines and saw my frustration, first hand. She has always been a fan of some of the ingredients in Plexus Slim/Accelerator + and had recommended that I try some of them along the way (ALA, 5HTP, Chromium, etc.). 

She strongly believes that the synergistic blend of plant extracts that Plexus has formulated is "groundbreaking." She shared studies and articles with me of how Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is used in Europe to treat a multitude of illnesses/conditions to include: Type II Diabetes, Alzheimer's, liver disease, macular degeneration/glaucoma, and more!"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Amazing news! This is awesome and not surprising at the same time. Plexus is the real deal in a fog of other imitators. Most other companies while great at marketing use harsh ingredients to gain short term impacts without being able to achieve the life lasting usability and results of Plexus products.

Importance of Gut Health!

Did you know that GUT YEAST is protected by the same kind of shell that a ROACH has to protect it ... called chitin?

Grossed out? You SHOULD be! That exoskeleton made of chitin is also protecting the overgrowth of yeast that is WREAKING HAVOC on your body! 

If you have yeast overgrowth, it INHIBITS the absorption of the good stuff ... nutrients that build up your body. The enzyme, CHITOSANASE, breaks through that hard protective shell (chitin) and kills harmful yeast (which is very hard to kill) so that the intestines can better absorb the culture forming units, thus getting your gut back into a HEALTHY state.

WHY is this important? WHY is yeast overgrowth a BIG DEAL? Because it can reside not just in your gut, but can escape to live THROUGHOUT your body. In fact, everyone has it to some degree (YES! YOU, TOO!), and it could be the reason you are dealing with:

Frequent stomach pains and digestion problems

Skin problems (skin infections, eczema, psoriasis, acne)

Foggy brain / Trouble concentrating

Constant tiredness and exhaustion

Anxiety

Mood swings

Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)

Anger outbursts

Irritability

Headaches

Intense cravings for sugars, sweets, and breads

Itchy skin

Autoimmune issues

Everyone Looooves Carbs!

Don't let sugar and carbs control you this holiday season. Try Plexus Block!!

Experts typically point to the overconsumption of simple carbohydrates, sugars and starches as a primary culprit in our declining state of health. The problem with these foods is that they are quickly converted to glucose in the body, which spikes blood-sugar levels and ultimately contributes a range of health problems, particularly over the long-term.

But there’s good news! Plexus Block does just what its name suggests— it blocks the absorption of starches and sugars up to 48%, thereby promoting healthy blood sugar levels and contributing to an enhanced state of overall wellness.

Features & Benefits:

Beneficially modulates starch and table sugar digestion/absorption

Promotes healthy weight control

Minimizes free radical damage/oxidative stress

Key Ingredients:

InSea2® Brown Seaweed blend: This proven ingredient blend features two species of brown seaweed, and is the only ingredient available today that provides a dual mechanism of action against digestive enzymes. It has been shown to inhibit alpha-amylase (like white kidney bean extract) and alpha-glucosidase, the enzyme that converts table sugar to glucose. This dual action is further protection against unhealthy blood-glucose levels, and further weight gain.

Stop Eczema!

So many people are finding relief from their eczema and allergies with Plexus.  This is a great article. Ask me what products may help you!

Thyroid Issues?

Plexus is truly amazing! 

Renee had her THYROID REMOVED 5 years ago! So awesome!

She shares: "I started Plexus at the beginning of August, my "Why" was because my sister is getting married and I'm her maid of honor. I had to have my thyroid removed 5 years ago, was really sick and couldn't get it under control. I went from 180 to 119 in about 8 months. My heart rate would be 130 sitting still and when I would get up to walk it would jump to 160. I couldn't sleep at all, had the shakes, and nosebleeds. It had to come out. After my thyroid was removed I had put all that weight back on and had been impossible for me to lose it. Over a year ago is when I first heard of Plexus, I sat back on Facebook and watched my friends getting healthy, getting off meds and losing weight. Finally I took the leap of faith and tried it. I signed as an Ambassador to save some money getting at wholesale price and thought if I make some then that would be a bonus. As of today I am down 36 pounds and over 20 inches! I don't have the snack craving and I don't feel hungry all the time.

5 Most Common Questions...

1. HOW MUCH IS IT?

Not as much as you might think. There are even combos of the products that save you money When you break it down the cost per day it is way less than the money spent on coffees/sodas/snacks/fast food each day. One can actually save money being on Plexus!

2. IS IT SAFE?

Yes. In fact, Plexus is the most natural health supplement line on the market today. All of our products are gluten free, NON-GMO, no soy, contain no artificial sweeteners (including Sucralose (Splenda),no dyes or chemicals and most are Vegan (except Plexus 96 protein which have Whey and Block which has gelatin) & Kosher (except Fast Relief Line which is derived from shellfish).

3. WILL IT WORK FOR ME?

I personally believe that Plexus can help EVERYONE! We have one of the highest success rates in the Health Supplement industry! However, I also believe it is important that you work with me, an extremely knowledgeable ambassador who is more than capable of helping find the best regimen for you to reach your health goals and who is prepared to walk closely with you on your journey and is willing to help troubleshoot issues, should they arise. This, paired with your consistency in taking the products, can equal incredible results! IF YOU DON'T STICK WITH IT CONSISTENTLY, YOU WON'T GET THE RESULTS YOU WANT

.

4. I'M TRYING TO DECIDE BETWEEN ____ & PLEXUS. WHAT MAKES PLEXUS DIFFERENT?

Plexus lists all product labels and ingredients on the website you won't find that on many of the other supplement sites. Nothing has SUCRALOSE , CARRAGEENAN, or artificial colors. These products are approved by many doctors! These products are designed to get your inside healthy before you see evidence on the outside it might be frustrating at first but in the long run is so much better for reaching your health goals and sustained weight loss.

5. WHAT IF IT DOESN'T WORK?

I ask that everyone give it 60 days. 2 weeks is just not enough to find out if something works for you...but if after 60 days you are not happy, you send it back and get a FULL refund!

What if does work? 

What if you love it?

What if it is the last thing you ever try to lose weight and feel better?

The Scoop!

Here's the scoop on the PINK DRINK - Plexus Slim:

David Brown, co-developer of Plexus Slim speaks about the “Pink Drink”:

• Our products work with the body to help re-educate the body

 

• Slim is designed to help your body get to a healthy BMI (body mass index - % of body fat). Once you hit that BMI, it doesn’t burn tissue. It doesn’t make you lose weight that you don’t need to lose. It will help you maintain and keep you at a healthy BMI.

• The reason people lose at different rates: If you’ve been carrying around extra weight since your youth, your body thinks a 40% BMI is a natural healthy state. It takes our product a while to re-educate your body to say “No, that’s not a healthy body weight.” It’s what your body has become ACCUSTOMED to. If your body has been at that BMI for a while, it’ll take some time to re-educate.

There are 3 types of weight gain:

1) Genetic

2) Stage or Plateau which is when you get older and gain, then gain more a few years later

3) Event – like a pregnancy or medication. Of these 3 types of weight gain, usually the “event” weight will come off easier. Plateau and genetic gains will usually have plateaus as you come down in losing. BE PATIENT. Some of our bodies are “slow learners” and everyone’s biochemistry/physiology is different. No two people will react the same when you introduce a supplement to the body.

SLIM CONTAINS:

4 ingredients for heart health

4 ingredients for kidney and liver health

1 ingredient for gastrointestinal health

4 ingredients for antioxidant repair

1 ingredient to aid in blood pressure levels

5 ingredients to aid in cholesterol levels

4 ingredients to aid in triglyceride levels

4 ingredients to aid in weight loss

3 ingredients to help suppress appetite

Plexus & Pregnancy

This is an awesome testimony: 

"A pregnant woman on Plexus? Whyyyy in the world would you continue to use those Plexus weight-loss products during pregnancy"?

PLEXUS ISN'T ABOUT THE WEIGHT LOSS!!

#Slim , a.k.a. the pink drink, is going to help keep my blood pressure and glucose levels stable. It is so healthy for my lipids, helps my energy levels, and even has anti-inflammatory properties. In the world of pregnancy, I am thinking about gestational diabetes, pre-eclampsia, dizziness from BP drops, and swelling.

The #Biocleanse that I take is a magnesium-based supplement that helps clean out the bad junk in my gut, oxygenate my body, and balance pH levels. In the world of pregnancy, magnesium also helps build strong bones and teeth, and helps certain enzymes function. Magnesium may also be helpful in reducing leg cramps. I'm all about sleeping well! Let's also not forget how hormones cause digestion to slow down too!.. pregnancy hemorrhoids anyone? Biocleanse helps keep my system regular! Did I mention it can also help control acid levels? I call that preventing heartburn! #MOMSCORE

#Probio5 is an amazing source of probiotics that balance the good bacteria in my gut. A special ingredient in it actually attacks the exoskeleton of the bad yeast and kills it so the Bio Cleanse can round it up and move it on out. Yeehaw! Back in pregnancy world, probiotic intake can reduce my child's risk of allergies by as much as 50 percent-- specifically eczema, asthma, and atopic dermatitis. My happy gut also hosts my immune system, so I benefit by decreasing my risk of colds and respiratory infections.

They also help increase my nutrient absorption and reduce my risk drastically for Post Partum Depression.

My #XFactor multivitamin has loads of important nutrients! It also contains aloe, which by itself has benefits, but also helps aid the absorption of my vitamins up to 300% more!! It doesn't make me feel nauseated, and I don't get nasty vitamin burps. All around great vitamins to support baby's development.

Last but not least, #MegaX. This is the first plant-based omega oil supplement in the world! It also happens to be tiny, so it isn't an issue for my intensified gag reflex. Say goodbye to fishy burps, too! No one has time for that! This tiny gel contains omega 3.6.9.5&7. While my bun is in the oven, this helps aid in my relaxation, stress management, brain health, and cardiovascular health while keeping my triglycerides at healthy levels! During this time, my baby will be getting healthy doses of plant-based oils to aid in brain development for years to come.

So, after this overview of what I take daily, my question back to you would simply be 'Why not?'" -Michelle Mallory

Remember to live life healthy and fun!  Happy Friday, Live Breathe Plexus! ♡

Well, hello!

My whole life, I've always enjoyed writing down my thoughts; I've always thought it was so therapeutic.  So I figured it would be fun to start a blog talking about this new journey I've started with Plexus.

Growing up, I struggled with acne; not just acne, but cystic acne.  For those of you who aren't familiar with cystic acne; it's extremely painful.  It really made me insecure about my skin and I always felt embarrassed.  I was always trying to cover it up with tons of foundation which wasn't helpful.  Once I started birth control, that seemed to help but didn't cure it.  I tried every topical treatment under the sun and found the only thing that helped, was Minocycline; which is an oral medication - but who wants to take that everyday?  It's not healthy to do that long term but in the moment, I didn't care!  Whatever worked! 

As I reached my 20's it seemed to get better and my skin was clear.  I still took great care of it, washing it twice daily, not sleeping with makeup on, and using acne fighting skin products on a daily basis.  So I was happy...my skin finally looked great!  This lasted for just about 10 years...

Out of the blue, just before my 30th birthday...boom!  Cystic acne reappears and it came back full force!  Nothing I did would help.  I went to the doctor, they switched my birth control 3 times, it only got worse - my hormones were all out of whack!  So they prescribed me Retinol gel.  Which, I wasn't a fan of but I'd give it a shot.  I used it for 2 months and nothing!  So I then tried DoTerra oils and at first it seemed to help and then my skin seemed to have an allergic reaction to it, so I stopped.  I researched more online and saw that Obagi skin care had an acne line called Clenziderm.  I started using that and at first, my skin didn't like it but I did read it was common.  I had little bumps and my skin was on fire.  I stuck with it though. 

In the meantime, my aunt introduced me to Plexus.  She felt that my skin issues were gut related.  After I did some research, I agreed.  It all seemed to make sense.  I started to realize that I just might have a yeast overgrowth; also known as Candida.  Not only was I having severe skin issues but there were so many other symptoms that I had been suffering from my ENTIRE life! 

What are common symptoms of candida?

1. Skin and nail fungal infections, such as athlete’s foot or toenail fungus
2. Feeling tired and worn down, or suffering from chronic fatigue or fibromyalgia
3. Digestive issues such as bloating, constipation, or diarrhea
4. Autoimmune diseases such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, Rheumatoid arthritis, Ulcerative colitis, Lupus, Psoriasis, Scleroderma or Multiple sclerosis
5. Difficulty concentrating, poor memory, lack of focus, ADD, ADHD and brain fog
6. Skin issues like acne, eczema, psoriasis, hives and rashes
7. Irritability, mood swings, anxiety or depression
8. Vaginal infections, urinary tract infections, rectal itching or vaginal itching
9. Severe seasonal allergies or itchy ears
10. Strong sugar and refined carbohydrate cravings

After reading about Candida, I realized I had to give Plexus a try!  I immediately signed up as an ambassador for the discount and ordered my Triplex Combo.  I knew my issue was in my gut and I needed to get healthy from the inside out.

I continue to use Obagi Clenziderm to wash my face but I've now been on Triplex for 2 months and I can see and feel such a difference.  I sleep much better, I have more energy, my skin is looking great, I'm using the restroom everyday (just keeping it real), and my anxiety is much lower.  I've even got my boyfriend on it and he loves it!  Honestly, I couldn't be happier that I decided to give Plexus a try; it really does work and that's why I'm sharing this with you.  My confidence is back and I'm not feeling that constant embarrassment because of those nasty cysts on my face.  I'm gaining my life back!  Thank you, Plexus!

 

You should take your health serious and heal from the inside out!  Stay tuned as I report back on my personal experience with trying our other Plexus products!
