Many of us are big on protein shakes, meal replacements or basically gulping down energy foods that offer us good amount of energy for a good workout. Check out the USANA Nutrimeal, which is basically a soy based meal replacement, great for your appetite and big on nutrition.
Other than the advantage that it helps you watch your weight, it helps stabilizes blood glucose, which translates to reducing risks of diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure and obesity. Be careful too, because meal replacements can help you gain weight too *winks* Top athletes like Tim Bradley, WBO welterweight champion, professional boxer, and Tyler McGill, Olympic gold medalist, Team USA swimmer are both consumers of USANA, which is worth a looker here.
