Hi Spa it Girl’s
I hope you are having a Beautiful Spa it Girl Self Love Sunday. I thought I would share the exciting news with you that for the whole month of APRIL I am going to be doing the #SuperElixirSwap with Welleco and swapping my usual sugar fixes for The Super Elixir Nourishing Protein by WelleCo which is Organic Clean Plant Protein with all 9 essential amino acids and digestive enzymes to support a healthy metabolism, maintain a balanced alkaline body and keep weight and hormones in check.
There is NO WHEY in it, only Plant proteins like sprouted brown rice and pea can be found in it which allows better absorption into the body. You can use it as a meal replacement, or a healthy snack, or to add to your smoothies, protein balls you name it.
It includes fibre to keep you feeling full for longer, dandelion for liver support, acas for free radical elimination and B vitamins to help fight stress. It’s available in chocolate flavour with raw Peruvian Cacao or Australian Vanilla but considering I once personally had a Cadbury Diary Chocolate addiction, I went for the Chocolate Flavour.
To be honest, I have never been a fan of taking Protein Powders and even growing up in the Fitness Industry from the age of 18 I tried so many that came in the biggest buckets and they all tasted like crap so I have never stuck with drinking protein powder and totally cut it out as I didn’t like the thought of drinking a disgusting powdered drink even if it was supposed to be good for my recovery and muscles, I found personally no matter how hard I tried it would not agree with my stomach until now.
I have even tried plant based protein powders before and wasn’t a fan of the one I tried. I’ve been in the Fitness Industry as a Qualified Personal Trainer and Group Fitness + Les Mills Instructor registered with Fitness Australia for 20 years now but during that time I have never found a Protein Powder that I really liked until now thanks to Welleco and their Nourishing Protein.
I am really excited because finally I can personally add more protein into my day to day life which will help in so many ways when it comes to my own Health and Wellbeing and yes muscle recovery.
I kid you not even though I am one of 30 International Digital Influencers to be leading the #SuperElixirSwap Challenge for the Month of April – I personally still get to say what I think and love it and it’s quite simple. I hated drinking Protein Powders up until now and if anyone is the same like me you will be now overly excited that thanks to this amazing Aussie Made Brand Welleco there all natural plant based clean protein smells delicious and tastes delicious.
For those who have followed me for years now will no I very rarely share Health Food Products but in the case of Welleco I love these Aussie Made Products because they are the Best and of course I love their co-founder Elle Macpherson who is gorgeous and yes never seems to age.
