			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Become A Body by Vi Promoter &#8211; Why?</h1>
<p>I&#8217;ll just  bet that ViSalus has your attention now, right?</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re wondering what all the hoopla is about, here are some key reasons WHY ViSalus should be on YOUR radar for consideration, if you are looking to start a PROFITABLE Home based business in 2012.</p>
<p>I decided to become a <a title="Become Body by Vi Promoter" href="http://visalus-distributor.com" target="_blank">Body by Vi Promoter</a> in August of 2010, and I want to share with you some of the reasons that I made the decision to do that, before I lost one single pound.</p>
<p><a href="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Over1million1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6283" title="become body by vi promoter" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Over1million1.jpg" alt="become body by vi promoter" width="424" height="230" /></a></p>
<p>1. <strong>Timing</strong> &#8211; If you have ever been a promoter of any opportunity, you know that doing your due diligence is crucial for finding a prime opportunity, pre-momentum. The reason that pre-momentum is crucial for success is because it gives you the ability to get a huge jump start on promoting an opportunity before everyone jumps on board.</p>
<p>A great example of this would be Amway. There are are many new promoters who catch the fever even today, however the majority of those who are at the top of the ranks joined YEARS ago.</p>
<p>ViSalus is a company that is in line to become a billion dollar company in 2012. Momentum is ramping up quickly, but opportunity with ViSalus is still wide open. Visalus is outpacing Apple in Apple&#8217;s early years, having risen from $34 million in annual sales in 2010, to over $234 million.</p>
<p><strong>CEO Ryan Blair</strong> shares the exciting news of Visalus&#8217; monumental growth on his blog -</p>
<p><a title="ViSalus Sales Increase 7 Fold" href="http://ryanblair.com/blog/visalus-sales-increase-seven-fold-co-founders-invest-significantly-in-blyth/" target="_blank"><strong>ViSalus Sales Increase 7 Fold &#8211; Blog of Ryan Blair</strong></a></p>
<p><strong>2. Opportunity -</strong></p>
<p>As baby boomers continue to retire in record numbers, one of the main focuses of this key demographic is lifestyle and quality of life. Health and wellness is a trend that is perfectly aligned with the concerns and spending trends for baby boomers.</p>
<p>Maintaining a healthy lifestyle with anti-aging as well as healthy weight products are a key reason that ViSalus is in the perfect place at the perfect time. As this key demographic continues to educate themselves on the benefits of maintaining their weight by watching their nutrition and exercise, ViSalus will continue to grow at the record rate of growth it has seen over the past year.</p>
<p>3.<strong> Compensation Plan</strong> &#8211; Below is a video which explains all of the benefits of becoming a <a title="Body by Vi Promoter" href="http://visalus-distributor.com" target="_blank">Visalus Body by Vi Promoter</a>.</p>

<h3>Body by Vi Weight Loss &amp; Health Testimonials</h3>
<p><strong>Meet my teammates &#8211; Tom and Jan Hibbard- Body by Vi Champions April 2011</strong></p>
<p>The Hibbard’s are from Hudsonville, Michigan and before the Challenge they were both overweight and were very lethargic.  Jan had 2 foot surgeries, her blood pressure was at a all time high and a medical condition caused her to gain 60 pounds.  Tom said “My joints ached and were stiff and sore.  I did not have the energy to play with our grandchildren.”</p>
<p>Tom was struggling with Type 2 Diabetes, has no thyroid and said his “metabolism is virtually non-existent,” said Tom.   They had given up on their health, when they were introduced to the <a title="Body by Vi 90 Day Challenge" href="http://BodybyViCalifornia.com" target="_blank">Body by Vi<sup>TM</sup> 90 Day Challenge</a> by their children , and one of their friends who had already lost 52 pounds on his Challenge.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Body by Vi Testimonials" href="http://BodybyViCalifornia.com" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1191" title="tom-and-jan-hibbard-bodybyvi-champions" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/tom-and-jan-hibbard-bodybyvi-champions.bmp" alt="Body by Vi Champions Tom and Jan Hibbard" width="504" height="389" /></a></p>
<p>They were given samples and within  a short period of time Tom had lost 5 ½ pounds and Jan lost 1 ½ inches off her waist.  They signed up and began their Body by Vi<sup>TM</sup> 90 Day Challenge, starting on the <a title="Body By Vi Transformation Kit – Whats Inside?" href="http://a-body-by-vi.com/body-by-vi-90-day-weight-loss-challenge/body-by-vi-transformation-kit-whats-inside/" target="_blank">Transformation Kit </a>and adding the ViSalus Vi-pak®.  The Transformation Kit helps you transform your body, with 60 Vi-Shape® Nutritional Shake meals, and  additional products to help curb hunger, help support healthy metabolism, provide energy and hydration, and more, while the Vi-pak® provides comprehensive nutritional and anti-aging support.</p>
<p>Tom and Jan both set their Challenge goal to lose 50 pounds. As they stuck to the Challenge, Tom saw changes in his face and neck and they both were getting inches and inches smaller. By the end of their Challenge Jan had lost 50 pounds and Tom had exceeded his goal and lost 63 pounds. “I think the neighbors heard the shout from my bathroom! I felt so proud of myself, and my husband!, said Jan.” “I felt a great sense of accomplishment,” said Tom. The Hibbard’s  say “Our family has said that we are thinner than they ever remember us and that we’ve lost half of ourselves! They are all very encouraging and supportive.” The Hibbards have gone onto more challenges, and Tom is now down 115 pounds, and Jan is down 75!</p>
<p><strong>Listen to this incredible testimony from Tom &#8211; Able to walk away from Diabetes medication</strong></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>For their amazing life and health transformation the Hibbard’s were crowned Body by Vi<sup>TM</sup> Champions in April 2011 at the Ohio National Success Training! ViSalus<sup>TM</sup> flew Tom and Jan to Hollywood, CA to experience the Ultimate Hollywood Transformation Vacation and a V.I.P. private jet trip to Las Vegas!  They enjoyed plush hotels, a photo shoot, new clothing, face time with management and Founders, and so much more.</p>
<p>The Hibbard’s advice: “Set a goal, be sure your kit matches your goal and stick to it! Find someone to do the Challenge with you, it helps tremendously!”</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">The Body By Vi 90 day challenge is really where everything started for me, because when the challenge was introduced to me, it was truly the perfect timing.</p>
<p><object width="402" height="227" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wQoSHOFFw18?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed width="402" height="227" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wQoSHOFFw18?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" allowFullScreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" /></object></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I was looking to lose weight, and I was weighing my options as to whether weight loss surgery would be the way to reach my weight loss goals.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Visalus</strong> and the Body by Vi 90 Day challenge &#8211; this really was the last stop before making the huge commitment to have surgery. My thought process literally was  &#8220;If this doesn&#8217;t work, then I&#8217;m having the surgery, and no one will talk me out of it&#8221;.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I started the Body By Challenge and the weight started falling off &#8211; I have lost over 120 lbs, I took first runner up in the Body By Vi Challenge, won a fabulous cruise to the Bahamas, a TON of awesome products and found my passion for life, which is to help others to find the joy of living again, and to spread that joy to others who have struggled with weight issues, as I have.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From  Professional Wrestlers like Hulk Hogan, <a title="Gary “Krusher” Key Joins The Body By Challenge – Promoting Fitness and Healthy Weight Loss In Ventura County, CA" href="http://a-body-by-vi.com/body-by-vi-90-day-weight-loss-challenge/gary-krusher-key-joins-the-body-by-challenge-promoting-fitness-and-healthy-weight-loss-in-ventura-county-ca/" target="_blank">Gary &#8220;Krusher&#8221; Key</a>, &amp; Brutus &#8220;The Barber&#8221; Beefcake, to Fitness and Figure Models, there is one thing that they all have in common.</p>
<p>They are an elite category of professionals  who make a living from being in peak physical form, so making impulsive nutritional decisions just isn&#8217;t in their routine. They simply do not have the luxury of leaving their eating choices to chance, and most certainly cannot eat out of boredom or comfort.</p>
<p>In the lives of these athletes and models, food is fuel, so cheap fillers with no nutritional value, harsh chemicals that interfere with cellular activity and even excess amounts of sugar do not provide the high-quality fuel needed to maintain their professional physique.</p>
<p>Meeting these needs with the nutritional and high quality ingredients found in the Body by Vi™ Vi-Shape shake made promoting and using Body by Vi™ products an easy yes for the following athletes.</p>
<p><strong>Professional Wrestlers promote the Body by Vi™ challenge</strong></p>
<p><em><strong>Hulk Hogan</strong></em></p>
<p><a href="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/HulkHoganBodyByVi.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-860 aligncenter" title="HulkHogan BodybyVi™" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/HulkHoganBodyByVi.png" alt="HulkHogan BodybyVi™" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Hulk Hogan,</strong> highly respected in the wrestling world as the greatest wrestler of all time, and loved by millions of fans around the world &#8211; said this about the Body by Vi™ shakes;</p>
<blockquote><p><em><strong>&#8221; I&#8217;ve been taking protein shakes my whole life and the Vi-Shape Shake is the first shake that made me want to lick the bottom of the glass. Pray, train and drink your Vi-Shape Shake!&#8221;</strong></em></p></blockquote>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Fitness &amp; Figure Models promote the Body by Vi™ Challenge</strong><a href="http://join.a-body-by-vi.com"><img class="size-medium wp-image-862 aligncenter" title="GretchenColeyBodyByVi" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/GretchenColeyBodyByVi-155x300.png" alt="Gretchen Coley promotes Body by Vi™" width="155" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><em><strong>Gretchen Coley, Professional Fitness Competitor</strong></em></p>
<blockquote><p><em><strong>&#8220;I have seen almost every health and fitness opportunity out there. After smelling what I thought was cake mix, I took the challenge for my next competition and my physique was the leanest and I looked my best ever. Let us all advocate for a healthier existence and spread the word!&#8221;</strong></em></p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Biggest Losers find promoting  Body by Vi™ Challenge is a WIN!</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://aleciabarnes.myvi.net/join/index.html?Market=USA"><img class="size-full wp-image-865 aligncenter" title="BiggestLoserBodybyVi™" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/BiggestLoserBodybyVi%E2%84%A21.png" alt="Biggest Loser Body by Vi™" width="440" height="235" /></a></p>
<p> Even former contestants of the hugely popular TV show &#8220;Biggest Loser&#8221; are coming on board as challenge promoters. Former Biggest loser contestants now promoting the Body by Vi™ Challenge include <strong>Filipe and Sione Fa</strong> from season 7, <strong>Cheryl and Daris George</strong> from season 9, <strong>Phil and Amy Parham</strong> from season 6, <strong>Ken Canion</strong> from season 3, <strong>O&#8217;Neal Hampton</strong> from season 9, <strong>Ashley &amp; Sherry Johnston</strong> from season 9, and <strong>Drea Hough</strong>, also from season 9.</p>
<p>Says Sione Fa of Biggest Loser season 7 -</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;<em><strong>When we returned home from the show, the real world hit us hard.  Filipe gained nearly all his weight back. Filipe started the Body by Vi™ Challenge and immediately was able to begin losing weight, reporting nearly 30 pounds lost the first month!&#8221;</strong></em></p></blockquote>
<p>So, there you have it. Biggest Losers do it.  Fitness Models do it. Professional Wrestlers do it.</p>
<p>Momentum is NOW.  Just&#8230;&#8230;, you know the rest!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/TransformationChallenge1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1146" style="margin: 5px 15px;" title="Transformation Challenge" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/TransformationChallenge1.jpg" alt="Transformation Challenge" width="200" height="300" /></a>Transformation Challenge</h1>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>Set a goal and see success in just 90 days!</strong></em></p>
<p>When is the last time you set a goal that set you squarely outside of your comfort zone?  We&#8217;re all faced with daily challenges, and it&#8217;s safe to bet that these challenges come, whether you want them to or not.</p>
<p>If you are tired of dieting, and/or working out and not seeing the results that you&#8217;ve worked so hard for, it&#8217;s time to take a hard look at your goals, starting where you are now, and where you want to be.</p>
<p>Studies show that many people never start a program because the end result looks too hard, or might take too long. By setting reasonable goals over a 90 day period, the end result is more achievable, and adjustments can be made along the way.<span id="more-1134"></span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">Transformation Challenge</h2>
<p style="text-align: center;">Where do I begin?</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="font-family: Arial;"><small>Take the first step in faith. You don&#8217;t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step. &#8211; </small></span>D<small><span style="color: #000000;">r. Martin Luther King Jr.</span></small><a href="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/TransformationChallenge2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1149" title="TransformationChallenge2" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/TransformationChallenge2.jpg" alt="TransformationChallenge2" width="200" height="300" /></a><small></small></p></blockquote>
<p>Start by taking a look at your <a title="Transformation Challenge" href="http://aleciabarnes.myvi.net/products.html" target="_blank"><strong>Ultimate Transformation Challenge</strong></a> goal -and based on that goal, break it down into 90 day short term goals. For example, if your goal is to get in the best shape and conditioning to run in a 5k competition, and that competition is 6 months away &#8211; you have two 90 day goals to meet. Keeping it realistic simply means that if you haven&#8217;t run in 5 years, setting a goal to complete the 5K would start with establishing daily and weekly goals for distance. Your first week, you would set a goal to run 1 mile a day, the following week 2 miles a day, moving all the way up to your 90 day goal.</p>
<p>Breaking down your goals to a daily goal, a weekly goal and a monthly goal will help you to stay on course to achieve your overall 90 day goal.</p>
<p>Logging your daily progress is crucial as well. Reviewing how you have done on a weekly basis helps you to stay on top of how you are performing relative to your goal, leaving you the leverage to  &#8220;step it up&#8221; if you are falling short, without falling behind. Doing this will hold you accountable to YOU, and is a boost to keep you motivated as you meet your goals.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Transformation Challenge</h3>
<p style="text-align: center;">I&#8217;ve set my goals, now what?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/TransformationChallenge3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1150" title="TransformationChallenge3" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/TransformationChallenge3.jpg" alt="TransformationChallenge3" width="300" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>Time to run!</p>
<p>The most important aspect of goal setting, is to implement. You&#8217;ve set your goals. Now , it&#8217;s time to start. implement. execute. Review performance to goals weekly, and adjust as necessary. Stay accountable, and celebrate each success along the way.</p>
<p>To assist you with meeting your Transformation Challenge goals &#8211; is a recommendation right from Dr. Oz. Dr. Oz recommends that you have at least one protein shake a day, to enhance your fitness and weight loss efforts, boosting your metabolism by up to 25% .</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Body by Vi Shakes &#8211; Are they safe for Gastric Bypass/Lap Band Patients?</h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/AudreySommerfeld.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1129" title="AudreySommerfeld" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/AudreySommerfeld.jpg" alt="" width="197" height="296" /></a></p>
<p><strong>From Audrey Sommerfeld &#8211; VP of Marketing and Brand Development for ViSalus Sciences.</strong></p>
<p>Today, we have several gastric bypass patients on our products, and they are having great success. One of our Ambassadors (Mr. Marty Crowe) was a bypass patient. His weight had plateaud at 500 lbs. until he found ViSalus. So the lap band is similar to gastric bypass, only less invasive of a surgery.</p>
<p>The shakes are great for gastric bypass patients (we even have sold it into a few bypass clinics) because it is highly absorbable protein with digestive enzymes, but also because it is low sodium and low fat, and tastes great. Bypass patients have a harder time getting enough nutrients because the size of the stomach is so compromised. The shakes are easy on their smaller stomach. For those that want additional support, they may benefit from the Vi-Pak. Now, because they have a much smaller stomach some patients may have a harder time digesting the tablets. This is because the ratio of stomach to tablet is much greater (more stomach touching the tablet vs. a regular size stomach). For them, we recommend that they can try and grind up the tablet in their shake, try a tablet cutter (available at pharmacies) or talk to their doctor about how to include it.</p>
<p>Patients can talk to their doctor, but a key issue for patients that have this type of surgery is getting enough protein each day. Many doctors tell them to get up to 60 or more grams of protein per day. The shake mixed in a little yogurt (greek) will help get enough protein into their now smaller stomach, and it&#8217;s an easily digested protein.</p>
<p>Audrey</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">The<em><strong> Body by Vi™ Challenge</strong></em> is truly making every day people feel like stars every single day, as so many are able to meet and exceed their personal 90 day challenge goals.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">There are also people who have come to the <em>Body by Vi™ challenge</em> of their own accord, bringing their own personal branding and star power, for one simple reason; <span style="text-decoration: underline;">The Body by Vi™ Challenge</span> works, and they love the <strong>Body by Vi™</strong> lifestyle.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Lyndsey Messina &#8211; Fitness Model and Personal Trainer</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://aleciabarnes.myvi.net/products.html"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-838" style="margin: 10px 5px;" title="LyndseyMessinaBodybyVi" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/LyndseyMessinaBodybyVi-164x300.png" alt="LydseyMessinaBodyByVi" width="148" height="270" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 id="post_message_2862605">Body by Vi Shakes &#8211; Why Sucralose</h1>
<div>The following is a response to the question regarding the use of <strong>Sucralose in the Visalus Vi-Shape Shake</strong>.</div>
<div><a title="Body by Vi Shakes" href="http://aleciabarnes.myvi.net/products.html" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-573" title="Visalus Vi Shape Shake Mix" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/prod_medium_vishape.jpg" alt="Weight Loss Protein Shake - Visalus Vi Shape Shake" width="300" height="300" /></a></div>
<div>
<p>Some folks have inquired about which sweetener used in Visalus Body by Vi Shakes and express concern when they hear it’s sucralose… see the details of just HOW MUCH sucralose we are talking about here and based on that information, YOU be your own judge and decide what impact it would have on you:“Our shake is 99.999% natural by weight. A shake serving is 26g, or 26,000 mg.We use .003mg of sucralose, so if you divide .003 by 26,000 you can see it is a miniscule amount.People that are allergic to artificial sweeteners tend to be allergic to aspartame, which has phenylalanine compounds. We don’t use aspartame for this, and other reasons.</p>
<p>We use sucralose for taste, and also to keep our products diabetic friendly. It is unfortunate that there is so much confusion and misinformation about sweeteners. Sweeteners have received bad press, primarily because of aspartame, which degrades when heated (it is safe when cold) and tastes bad. Sucralose has been found safe both in hot and cold applications, and has had over 110 peer reviewed studies completed. This is why Sucralose has been approved by over 80 countries globally. I like to say that many people feel the FDA approved drugs too easily (i.e. Vioxx, Phen Phen), so that if you trust other countries more (several globally are more stringent), then looking abroad is a good benchmark as well. We use a very small 0.03 grams per serving, which is about 1/3 of the amount in a diet cola.</p>
<h2>Body by Vi Shakes &#8211; Why Sucralose</h2>
<p>The following video of Audrey Sommerfeld explains the decision to use Sucralose vs using Stevia or Xylitol</p>
<p><object width="420" height="315" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wFy2cp-O-6U?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed width="420" height="315" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wFy2cp-O-6U?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" allowFullScreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" /></object></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We know that several people would prefer we use Stevia or Xylitol because they are natural. Xylitol is a natural sugar alcohol. Unfortunately it causes diarrhea in approximately 20% of the population! To get the same amount of sweetness in Neuro, we would need about 1 tablespoon, which can be toxic or fatal to a 40 pound dog. It also has not been approved globally.</p>
<p>Stevia is a sweetner derived from a plant. It has only recently been approved in the U.S., and is still in process of being reviewed globally. There have been some concerns on liver toxicity, and so there may be more studies needed. The manufacturers of Stevia have recently published some safety data, and many countries are now re-looking it as a sweetener. It does impart a licorice type flavor, that some people do not like. We have been trying to work with stevia in some new formulations, but are struggling to make them taste good.</p>
<p>I’ve been asked a lot about agave recently. Agave is nothing more than high fructose syrup…about 90% fructose. Fructose has many properties but one bad one is that it increases appetite and this is exactly opposite of what we want in a weight management product.</p>
<p>We do strive to make our formulas as natural as possible, while balancing taste, texture, safety, efficacy and stability. We are looking at some promising natural sweetners coming on the market (there is one from Japan that is very promising). Our hope is that we will be able to replace sucralose to alleviate those concerns, but for now have not found a suitable substitute that tastes as good, has as much research, and has global approval.</p>
<p>In terms of things being ‘safer’ because they are natural, is not always true. Consider mushrooms. Many are medicinal and healing, but some are plain toxic. So natural is great, but we really need to ask about safety and dosage too. I would love to see studies done with stevia, or xylitol, or agave that doses them consistently, in the same levels that sucralose had to go through to be approved. I’ve not seen any studies on what the affect would be if we mimicked the same clinials. Stevia has recently been approved in the U.S. for use in foods (Coca -Cola is using it). Some physicians are concerned about it being consumed in massive quantities, since it did not need to go through as rigorous a testing plan as sucralose. So in the scientific world the concern is that the risks of high amounts of consumption of stevia is not known. We are working with it though, and if we can get the shake to taste as good, we will consider moving to using it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Body by Vi Shakes &#8211; <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 15px;">Why Soy? Is it Safe?</span></h2>
<p>The following post is to answer questions regarding the use of Soy in the Body by Vi Shakes &#8211; and whether using Soy is safe.</p>
<p>This response comes directly from Audrey Sommerfeld, SVP of Marketing for ViSalus Sciences.</p>
<p><a title="Body by Vi Shakes Why Soy" href="http://buy.visalus-shakes.com" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1104" title="WhySoy" src="http://a-body-by-vi.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/WhySoy-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a><br />
There is a lot of misinformation and confusion about soy in the marketplace today. In countries where consumption of soy is high (like Japan) the populations are healthier and have fewer health issues than in America today. So we know that there is misinformation, and facts being taken out of context.</p>
<p>Of the concerns over soy, there are a few common ones. First, is referring to raw soybeans, that can contain a form of phytic acid that can block certain minerals absorption. However, that is based on massive consumption quantities, and of the raw soybean and only occurs in those animals that lack the digestive enzyme phytase. It is only an issue for people who consume those foods to get minerals in their diet, and in massive quantities. The issue is in developing countries, and may have a genetic basis as well because they are lacking the digestive enzyme (which can be supplemented and therefore alleviate the concern). It is not an issue for our products because of how we process the ingredients.</p>
<p>The second common concern with soy are due to some of the components of soy, particularly the isoflavones genistein and dadzein which can affect and inhibit thyroid peroxidase which is necessary for the production of T3 and T4. Thus there is some evidence that it could lead to thryoid enlargement (Goiter) . Our soy has been processed to remove the isoflavones, so this is not an issue.</p>
<p>A third common concern about soy is the effect it may have on estrogen levels in the body. This is again due to the isoflavones, which we have had removed. So this is a non-worry. We should note that many menopausal women do supplement with isoflavones, as it has been shown to help them experience fewer side effects of menopause.</p>
<p>Lastly, our Soy is not genetically modified (it is non-GMO). Many people worry about genetically modified soy, and if any of the ingredients got altered in the breeding process. We use the most natural form we can get, that has not been genetically modified.</p>
<p>Why use soy? It is a complete protein, it is easily digested, and with adequate soy in the diet it can help reduce c-reactive protein (an signal of inflammation and heart disease) in the body, along with cholesterol.</p>
<p>I hope that helps.<br />
Audrey</p>
