What’s In TRIFECTA Energy?

• Allulose:
  • Allulose, a natural sugar derived from figs and grains, emerges as a transformative element in TRIFECTA Energy. Not only is Allulose low in calories, but it also boasts various health advantages. Studies have revealed its anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-obesity properties. Allulose aids in regulating blood sugar levels, thereby assisting in reducing inflammation and curbing hunger pangs effectively.
• Electrolytes:
  • Sodium and potassium are pivotal components of TRIFECTA, a hydrating elixir meticulously crafted to replenish essential fluids and crucial electrolytes lost during physical exertion or sickness. With elevated levels of sodium, it facilitates the swift restoration of these vital nutrients for prompt recovery. Whether you are an athlete or recuperating from an ailment, TRIFECTA Energy emerges as the optimal choice to sustain hydration levels and expedite recovery processes. TRIFECTA Energy serves as a potent solution to combat potassium depletion in the body, a common occurrence during strenuous physical activities. Potassium, in conjunction with sodium and chloride, plays a pivotal role in preserving bodily fluids. TRIFECTA Energy aids in maintaining normal potassium levels, thereby bolstering overall health.
• Vitamin B12
  • Vitamin B12 assumes a critical role in red blood cell production, essential for oxygen delivery throughout the body. This oxygen is subsequently converted into energy, supporting optimal bodily functions and holistic well-being. Additionally, vitamin B12 contributes significantly to DNA synthesis, a fundamental process for cell formation. By augmenting your vitamin B12 intake through TRIFECTA Energy, you can replenish energy reserves and bolster your overall health.
• Magnesium
  • Magnesium content in TRIFECTA Energy facilitates healthy muscle function and glucose metabolism. Magnesium is indispensable for utilizing energy-rich compounds, making it imperative for post-exercise recuperation. Prolonged physical activity can deplete magnesium levels, potentially compromising physical performance and temporarily weakening the immune system. TRIFECTA Energy aids in replenishing magnesium reserves, thereby supporting immune functions and serving as an ideal remedy for individuals recuperating from intense physical exertion or illness.
• Caffeine and L-Theanine
  • Caffeine and L-Theanine jointly feature in TRIFECTA Energy, with 80 mg of caffeine complemented by L-Theanine, a natural component found in tea leaves and mushrooms. This unique combination offers a natural energy surge devoid of subsequent crashes. Extensive research validates the health benefits of L-Theanine, showcasing its efficacy in enhancing human well-being. By incorporating L-Theanine, TRIFECTA Energy mitigates the typical jitters and crashes associated with caffeine consumption. Studies suggest that L-Theanine aids in alleviating physical and mental stress symptoms, leading to reduced anxiety levels and improved sleep quality. TRIFECTA Energy is meticulously designed to elevate recovery processes and overall wellness by elevating GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), serotonin, and dopamine levels, fostering relaxation, positive moods, and stress reduction. Furthermore, it enhances focus and creativity by inducing alpha waves and can even lower blood pressure during stressful periods.
• Zinc and Vitamin E
  • Zinc and Vitamin E play pivotal roles in bolstering a robust immune response. These nutrients function as antioxidants, shielding cells from damage and supporting the growth and activity of immune cells. Moreover, they contribute to antibody production, crucial for combating infections effectively. By incorporating TRIFECTA Energy into your daily regimen, you can ensure that your body receives the essential nutrients required to uphold a resilient and efficient immune system.

We know the holidays can be a busy time of year and sometimes we sacrifice our health leading up to the new year. But let’s change that this year. Don’t wait until the new year to start incorporating healthy choices into your daily routine. Today, we share our top tips on how to stay healthy this holiday season and kick start your new year goals early!

Tip 1 Add in Some Movement!

 Exercise is a proven way to support immunity. In addition, it will help you maintain a healthy weight. During the holiday season, make sure you alot time in your schedule to get moving, whether it be by yourself or with the whole family. Getting to the gym may be harder depending on your schedule so incorporate more walks and at home workouts. 

If you are traveling, it may be more difficult to stay focused on exercise. However, having ideas for maintaining your fitness beforehand will likely encourage you to stick to a more consistent schedule. Consider purchasing an apple watch or fit bit to help you stay on top of getting steps in daily. Set a daily target for movement goals and stick to them even while you are away. Maybe try and visit walking trails or hikes a few days of your trip as this is an easy way to stay active. 

No matter where you are, make sure to plan your exercise recovery accordingly by bringing an electrolyte beverage like CF(Rehydrate)® with you for post-workout recovery. 

Tip 2 Plan Ahead if you are Traveling

Like most things in life, a little bit of preplanning and forethought is often beneficial (if not necessary) for enabling plans to run smoothly. If you are visiting a big resort that includes meals, we suggest calling ahead to ensure healthy food and beverage items are available. The same protocol applies to any restaurants you plan to attend, especially if they are part of a preset itinerary where attendance is required. These suggestions are especially important if you have any specific dietary needs or restrictions, such as gluten intolerance or a dairy allergy. Most hotels and chefs will be more than happy to accommodate your needs. If they’re not, checking in beforehand will allow enough time to adjust your travel plans and go elsewhere, if needed.

If you’re traveling for pleasure and can eat wherever you want during your trip, consider browsing local restaurants and cafes that offer healthy menu items beforehand. Yelp, Happy Cow, and Google are all great resources for identifying restaurants that cater to specific dietary needs and specialty food preferences. While trying local cuisines can be a fun part of the travel experience, it may be helpful to eat at least one meal a day closer to your usual diet to avoid shocking your digestive tract. If you plan on arriving in a city early in the morning or late in the evening, you can also check out which restaurants can deliver directly to your hotel room and order on the way. Knowing where to order ahead of time can prevent getting overly hungry and making food choices out of convenience over health.

Tip 3 Increase Your Fiber Intake

Consuming enough fiber is crucial to regulating bowel function, weight, and blood glucose management and preventing certain diseases. Most Americans do not consume enough dietary fiber. On average, Americans consume about 15 grams of fiber per day, far lower than the RDA, regardless of age or gender. The best ways to increase fiber intake are choosing whole grains whenever possible, consuming legumes and beans, and increasing fruit and vegetable intake. Drinking CF(Protein)® can help support you in achieving the RDA for fiber, as it contains 13 grams per one 8 ounce bottle.

 Fiber may help reduce the risk of developing various diseases, including heart disease and diabetes. Studies show that the intake of fiber lowers the risk of developing cardiovascular disease. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) cross-sectional Data (2003-2006) showed that intake of whole grains (rich in fiber) was associated with enhancing the effects of statin in lower cholesterol. Fiber may also  help prevent constipation by regulating bowel movements. Constipation is a common gastrointestinal problem that many people experience. If you have chronic constipation, you may need to ramp up your fiber intake, and drinking CF(Protein)®, is an easy and effective way to do so. As always, if you have a chronic health issue, it is best to speak to your doctor for any specific recommendations.

Fiber can also help maintain a healthy weight. High fiber foods are typically more filling than lower fiber foods. They also help keep you feeling fuller for longer. Satiety is the term used to describe your fullness. Fiber increases satiety after a meal. If you are looking to lose weight, increasing your fiber intake may help by increasing satiety and preventing the intake of excess calories.
