________________________________________________________________________

It’s been a bit since I’ve talked about Plexus on my blog, but I am more excited about it than ever!! My own health continues to be such a blessing, and as we returned home from a busy weekend trip with over 24 hours of traveling, many late nights, and not much sleep, I’m amazed again at how good I feel! Normally this would have left me exhausted for days, but this time the morning after just feels like my new-normal good days. I’m so grateful!

If Plexus is new to you, and you’d like to read more of my own personal story, you can find it here. But in a nutshell, I dealt with adrenal fatigue, low blood sugar, brain fog, and being underweight, and desperately needed something that would work from the inside out, not just mask symptoms.

There are some people who wonder what all the excitement is about, and if you have never experienced health challenges or felt desperate for answers to what is happening in your body, then thank Jesus!! Not everyone is in need of these products and there are those who enjoy great health – and that is wonderful! But there are many who are looking for something to help frustrating and crippling health concerns, and it’s for those people that I am excited to share!

I am not a doctor or nurse, but in my own journey of health I have been learning so many things about how the body works, and it is so fascinating and exciting! These products are  not a magic cure for anything, and they will not turn your twinkies into protein, unfortunately! But they do work to bring health to core and essential levels of the body. So I want to tell you about four of my favorite products, and why they work as they do. Let’s get started!

 *Plexus does not intend to treat, diagnose or cure any disease and individual results will vary. Plexus products are health supplements made of plant-based ingredients that target health on core levels of the body. They are supplements, not drugs.

SLIM

Curious what Plexus is? It’s not just more pills to take – Wendy Carr Larson explains it this way:

Plexus Slim is a yummy little pink drink that you take first thing in the morning.
It helps stabilize your blood sugars throughout the day which in turn helps you have more energy, Stable blood sugars also mean LESS STRESS on the body!! Less stress means less inflammation, less raised cortisol or adrenal fatigue. Less stress means healthier blood pressure, cholesterol, and lipids. People report having great energy, sleeping better, less cravings for sugar/snacks, and weight loss.

Plexus Slim also helps insulin to function better. Insulin is the master hormone in your body, which means it has a very important job! Insulin tells all the other hormones what to do! Hormones tell your body whether to burn fat and lose weight or to store fat and gain weight or to find balance and weight maintenance in between. When it comes to your body “deciding” what state to be in, there are two key hormones that regulate food intake and energy balance.

Did you know if your blood sugar is off-balance it can affect your mood and hormones? True story. This is one great benefit I’ve noticed!

So why is a healthy blood sugar level important, and what can it do?
Here are just a few benefits of just a balance blood sugar level alone:
-prevents pre-diabetes
-helps diabetics with healthier blood sugar balance
-helps to prevent light-headedness, shakiness that is a result of low blood sugar
-helps to balance hormones
-blood sugar balance reduces inflammation

Interesting fact: Did you know that the only common denominator in people who live to be over a 100 years old that scientist can find is how sensitive they are to insulin?! So if we can keep our blood sugars stable, not swinging up and down, our bodies can release less insulin and become more sensitive to insulin.

Features & Benefits of Slim:
* Helps maintain healthy blood sugars
* Helps maintain healthy blood pressure
* Helps maintain healthy cholesterol and lipid levels
* Proven ingredients—including Alpha Lipoic Acid, Chlorogenic Acid, and Garcinia Cambogia—that address all areas of weight loss
* No meal replacements
* No shakes

The body naturally stores fat. The most common areas are the stomach, thighs and buttocks. These excess fat stores contain toxins that can cause havoc with our immune system. Plexus Slim and other products work to reduce fat, thereby gaining better health. This picture shows the difference between dieting and cleansing, and why cleansing makes all the difference.

PROBIO5

What IS a probiotic, and why is it important?

A probiotic is an organism which contributes to the health and balance of the intestinal tract.

A probiotic is also referred to as the “friendly”, “beneficial”, or “good” bacteria which when ingested acts to maintain a healthy intestinal tract and help fight illness and disease. The Plexus Probio5 is the only probiotic on the market that also contains an antifungal ingredient, which is so essential in the treating of yeast overgrowth in the body!

ProBio5 features five probiotics, added enzymes, Vitamin B6, Grape Seed extract and Vitamin C—all in one effective delivery system.

Features & Benefits

⦁ Yeast organism and fungal cleanse

⦁ Proper probiotic balance in the intestinal tract

⦁ Proper intestinal balance which increases nutrient absorption

⦁ Relief from typical yeast symptoms (anxiety, recurring irritability, lethargy, allergies, acne, dry/flaky skin, migraines, and so forth)

Doctors say that 80% of our health lies in our gastrointestinal tract, which is our gut/colon/digestive tract. It is a huge area of our body, and studies show that even things like depression, autoimmune diseases, skin issues, and a myriad of other health issues have their root in an unhealthy gut.

Poor eating habits, chlorinated drinking water, stress and disease and the use of antibiotics in food production as well as in medical treatments can wreak havoc in the gastrointestinal tract by destroying good bacteria and allowing undesirable bacteria to multiply.

When the ratio of good bacteria to bad is lowered, problems begin to arise such as excessive gas, bloating, constipation, intestinal toxicity and poor absorption of nutrients.

So…..have you ever considered that your gut is sick?

And that your gut being sick is making YOU sick? Making your joints hurt? Having headaches? Being grumpy, to lacking concentration? Causing bad allergies, and being tired all the time? I don’t know a lot about lots of things. BUT, I do know how to help you gut! And your gut is the hub—the grand central station–of how you feel every day!

Leaky Gut Syndrome (LGS) is a major cause of disease and dysfunction in modern society, accounts for at least 50% of chronic complaints, as confirmed by laboratory tests. It is often the primary cause of the following common (auto-immune) conditions :
asthma,
food allergies,
chronic sinusitis,
eczema
urticaria,
migraine,
irritable bowel,
fungal disorders,
lupus,
fibromyalgia,
and inflammatory joint disorders including rheumatoid arthritis are just a few of the diseases that can originate with leaky gut. It can contribute to PMS, uterine fibroid, breast fibroid.

In Leaky Gut Syndrome, the small intestine becomes inflamed and irritated, which allows metabolic and microbial toxins of the small intestines to flood into the blood stream. This event compromises the liver, the lymphatic system, and the immune response including the endocrine system.

Some of the most incurable diseases are caused by this exact mechanism, where the body attacks its own tissues.

This is commonly called auto-immune disease.

So how do you get a HEALTHY gut?

By providing it with healthy bacteria that nourishes, with enzymes, with life-giving nutrients that not only feed the healthy bacteria but kill the unhealthy bacteria, which is the yeast or candida overgrowth that is the “mystery illness” of America. Literally, hundreds of surface issues spring from this one iceburg issue.

BIOCLEANSE

As a result of the modern lifestyle, most of our bodies are burdened with toxic waste and sluggish metabolisms. Having an excess of toxic waste can leave the body tired, achy, and bloated, with a low energy level and weakened immune system. Detoxification is a process that expels excess waste and accumulated toxins from our body. Fortunately, Plexus has developed products to help the body detoxify and cleanse the gastro-intestinal tract and arteries.

Many people are in a low oxygen/toxic state. This is caused by poor diet, stress, low activity levels, polluted air and shallow breathing. The body cannot keep up its metabolism in this state, and begins to gather waste products more rapidly than it can eliminate them. Viruses, bacteria, fungi and other things thrive in this condition, and can lead to diseases such as flu, yeast overgrowth, chronic fatigue, etc. Plexus Bio-Cleanse oxygenates and energizes your body while detoxifying and cleansing wastes, pathogens and plaque in the gastrointestinal tract, colon, arteries, blood, etc.

So while cleansing the body of waste is very important and what most people think of with a cleanse, there are so many MORE health benefits than that alone.

Interesting fact:

“In 1931 Dr. Warlburg won his first Nobel Prize for proving that cancer is caused by a lack of oxygen respiration in cells.

He stated in an article entitled “The Cause and Prevention of Cancer” that ‘the cause of cancer is no longer a mystery, we know it is caused when any cell is denied 60% of its oxygen requirements.’

This is what Plexus says about the BioCleanse: BioCleanse oxygenates and energizes the body while helping cleanse wastes, pathogens and plaque in the gastrointestinal tract, colon, arteries, blood, etc.’

This is really very exciting, you all!!

Those three (Slim, Probio5, and BioCleanse) can be purchased individually or as a combo package (much cheaper) called the Triplex. YOU WILL FEEL FABULOUS on this combo!!

X-FACTOR MULTI-VITAMINS.

People were asking for a multi-vitamin and Plexus Worldwide delivered – X-Factor! Talk about amazing results – it’s turbo-charged with daily vitamins and antioxidants. Nowhere else will you find this mixture of New Zealand Black Currant and Aloe! Consuming multi vitamin supplements is a good thing. With our poor diets and all the other threats to our health, it’s critical to have a high-quality food source of vital nutrients. In fact, studies suggest that the majority of multivitamin products are of poor quality and difficult for the body’s digestive tract to break down, digest and absorb.

This unique patented Aloe formula that blends filtered whole leaf aloe and aloe leaf gel, smartly delivers polysaccharide nutrients. Many studies show that the aloe helps you to absorb the Vitamin E and C ingredients by up to 3 times more! It also helps you absorb any of the Plexus products you take with more affectively!

Also, they came out with family chewable, which my kids love! People report reduced cases of sicknesses and better energy and all around health with both of these incredible products. This whole winter we have had ONE bout of a flu bug the entire winter; the only thing we’ve done differently than other years (of repeated sickness) is taking Plexus products.

-The Blackcurrant in our XFactor is also rich in Iron which increases the production of red blood cells. Due to its rich Vitamin C, Black currant increases the body’s capacity to absorb iron. The XFactor also is Rich in the fat soluble Vitamins A and C. It also has high amounts of calcium which strengthens bone and teeth and may be effective in helping to prevent osteoporosis. It also helps improves oral health.

Features & Benefits

Delivers several B vitamins, vitamins D, C and E, the antioxidant protection of New Zealand Blackcurrants, and the impressive nutrient profile of Aloe
* Oxygenates the body, safeguarding against damaged/dysfunctional cells
* Provides super-potent antioxidant protection
* Delivers support for whole-body wellness
* Supports the body’s functions, processes and systems
* Super-charges the body’s various immune activities

While Plexus cannot claim to cure or diagnose anything, researching done on the products have been amazing to see:

A colleague of the developer of the X Factor was given permission to treat 31 cancer patients in England, all who had been given a diagnosis of 3-6 months to live. He gave the subjects OUR ALOE BLEND 3 times a day.
4 ½ years later:
2 were in complete remission
7 showed reduced amounts of cancer
22 had the cancer growth stabilized………
and none had died.

And that is the basic product overview, the nutshell version. :)

ALL the products come with a 60-day money back guarantee, which speak of the company’s belief in their products, and also of their belief that health takes time. Plexus doesn’t expect health issues to clear up overnight, and neither should anyone else.

If you’d like to try the products, here are some ordering options!

Retail Customer is a one-time purchase, 60-day money-back guarantee. It’s the most expensive, and gives you no benefits.

Preferred Customer, automatic monthly shipment, 60-day guarantee = best customer option

Wholesale  Ambassador, best pricing, comes with your own website so you and your friends can order = best all-around option if someone is ordering over $100 a month!

If you’ve considered it for the purposes of earning enough to pay for your own order, I don’t push you to do more than that, unless that is something you want to do. I’m passionate. I pray over my customers. And my team. I cry when I get emails about how my customers and team are experiencing results and help for their health. I want to help people in their health journey – that is my passion! If you message me, I answer questions but no pressure.

I’m passionate about helping families on their journey of health. My passion is because I get my “highs” from seeing people get well!

This is also a great business opportunity, if anyone is looking for something like that. It has been such a fulfilling business for me to offer hope and wellness to other people through these products and building relationships!
