But Wait, That's Not All!

My husband Lawrence and I like to make fun of infomercials.  The person describes the product, with as much enthusiasm as they can muster and in the loudest voice possible -- or so it seems.  They show you the product in action, amazing you with the fabulous results the product produces or the wonderful, almost magical things the product can do.  By the end of the infomercial, you realize you simply cannot live another second with this particular product.  I mean, how in the world have you managed to survive up until now without this product in your possession?!  Or maybe you're not quite convinced, and so when the time comes to have you call in and place your order, they go over what all you will get and then add at the end, "BUT WAIT, THAT'S NOT ALL..."  They go on to explain, "If you call within the next 5 minutes, we'll give you not one but two of such and such product."  They might even throw in a few accessories or extra parts or whatnot for "free."  Then, to top it all off, you get free shipping!  How can you NOT rush to find your phone and make that call right then and there?!

You see why Lawrence and I have a good laugh when we see/hear infomercials.

I hope you're not laughing at me as I have announced my new adventure with It Works!  I know I have posted a lot of pictures -- with a lot of skin -- to show you how fabulous the wraps are, how the results speak for themselves.  You might think I have turned into a living infomercial for the It Works Ultimate Body Applicator.  I apologize.  I probably did go a little overboard, but I just got super excited.  You see, I was super skeptical about them at first.  I questioned if they actually worked.  BUT, I kept seeing pictures and hearing stories of people I KNOW and TRUST.  I still doubted though.  I wondered if the wraps were truly healthy.  I am a huge proponent of HEALTH, not quick fixes or short cuts.  I believe in eating right and exercising, of taking care of your body.  It's about a LIFESTYLE for me, not just a 45 minute wrap application.  And so I kindly declined an offer to become a distributor back in September.  But this past month, three of my good friends, all of whom are health conscious, natural minded, homeopathic "crunchies" joined the It Works team as distributors.  So, I took a second look at this company and their products.  I came to discover they use ALL NATURAL ingredients to make all of their products.  And as you know, I got excited about what It Works can do to help people MAINTAIN a healthy lifestyle.

I feel as though I must write this blog today to help you see understand that It Works offers more than just the Ultimate Body Applicator.  Yes, we are most certainly best known for our wraps -- as they are pretty amazing, but I wanted to tell you, "BUT WAIT, THAT'S NOT ALL!"  It Works has an extensive line of health and wellness products, not just the wraps.  And because I am passionate about helping people develop and maintain a healthy LIFESTYLE, I simply must share a few of these products with you.

Daily Greens
I have posted about these on facebook several times, mainly because apart from the wrap, these are my personal favorite product It Works has to offer.



You can get the greens in a container and use 1-2 scoops a day.  If you use the recommended 2 scoops, you will get 8+ servings of fruits and veggies, help balance your body's PH levels, and boost your overall immune system.  Using 2 scoops a day, you will have a month's supply of greens.  If you are a busy person and want to take your greens with you on the go, then you can get a box of individual packets.  It averages out to about $1 a day to use the greens.  $1 a day!  That's less than a cup of coffee or pop.  That's about the same as a candy bar or dollar menu item from McDonalds, which are nowhere nearly as good for you as these greens! :)


It's Vital Core Nutrition
I don't know about you, but I personally take a multivitamin every day.  Unless you are taking a vitamin made with whole foods, your body probably isn't digesting the vitamin and you are just pooping it out.  If you want to actually benefit from your multivitamin, it needs to be plant-based and contain a variety of nutrients.

It Works offers a multivitamin made with over 30 pesticide-free, plant-based, and gluten-free ingredients!  Not only do these provide you with increased amounts of vitamins A, D, B6, B12, C, and E, but they also can help to boost your metabolism and maintain your energy throughout the day.  One bottle of the It Works It's Vital Core Nutrition vitamins is $29 (for loyal customers).  Again, that's about $1 a day.  I think that's a pretty good deal!

Lawrence and I have a very high deductible for our insurance.  We believe that if we spend the money to eat right, exercise, and take care of our bodies, we won't have to go to the doctor all that often.  We would rather be preventive and invest in healthy foods and activities that will help us maintain our health rather than paying a doctor for medicine to help us feel better.


Ultimate ProFIT
Yesterday, on facebook, a friend of mine from high school who is now a registered dietian posted how a person's muscle mass is at its peak when he/she is 30 and then it starts to decline.  Another friend, also a registered dietian mentioned how she was glad she had started putting whey protein in her shakes or smoothies.  I immediately thought of the It Works Ultimate ProFIT, a blend of protein, superfoods, and insoluble fibers.
Not only does this provide you with 14 grams of protein, in just 100 calories, it also promotes digestive health.  So, while you are building lean muscle mass, you are also helping to maintain healthy cholesterol levels and boost your digestive system.  The whey and soy proteins in It Works Ultimate ProFIT are non-hormonal and non-GMO.  With the added superfoods, your body gets extra antioxidants, and the other ingredients like cocao powder and maca will help boost your energy and feel good all day.  A bag of It Works Ultimate ProFIT is $69 and will last you an entire month.  That levels out to about $2.30 a day.  Again, cheaper than the smallest cup of coffee at Starbucks or Caribou Coffee or whatever coffee shop you frequent.  

I could go on and on and on, telling you about product after product after product that It Works offers to help you, wherever you may be on your journey to wellness.  Again, I am passionate about HEALTHY LIVING, not quick fix solutions with results that don't last.  And that is why I decided that joining the It Works team was something I could do and feel good about.  I want to help others accomplish their health and wellness goals.  I want them to come to love being healthy, maintain that lifestyle, and share their passion with others.

I will spare you more product information, for now, though.  I will just include some pictures of a few other items It Works offers.
