Stable blood sugar also creates an anabolic environment (a positive<br />
growth state) to optimize cell reproduction, energy, focus, sleep and<br />
stress management.<br />
In conjunction with exercise, stable blood sugar will help to build<br />
lean muscle mass. Male or female, muscle is your friend! In fact, one<br />
pound of lean muscle mass is three times smaller than one pound of<br />
body fat. If your goal is to be lean and toned, the key is burning body fat<br />
while protecting and increasing lean muscle mass. In short, stabilizing<br />
your blood sugar will help you to achieve your goals permanently!<br />
<strong>The</strong> 3 Factors to Stabilize Your Blood Sugar:<br />
Meal Intervals – Your body is a “refuel as it goes” machine and needs<br />
to be fed consistently! Eat within one hour of waking (before exercise)<br />
to kick start your metabolism and then every 3 to 4 hours throughout<br />
the day until bedtime. Your last meal should fall within one hour of<br />
going to bed to help prepare your body for fasting.<br />
Frequent meals will keep blood sugar levels steady and help to<br />
prevent you from overeating and spiking blood sugar or skipping a meal<br />
and causing blood sugar to drop too low.<br />
Nutrient Ratios - Each meal should have a balance of complete<br />
protein (animal or soy protein), with a small amount of healthy fat and<br />
a small amount of carbohydrates to keep blood sugar levels stable. It<br />
is critical to get the correct nutrients (protein, carbohydrate and fat)<br />
in every meal.<br />
Meal Size - Your body can only process a certain amount of food<br />
at once, and eating smaller meals every few hours will keep blood<br />
sugar levels steady. Each meal should be roughly the same size (same<br />
amount of calories).<br />
Think of a baby. A baby feeds every 3 to 4 hours, never overfeeding<br />
or underfeeding. Babies eat when they feel hungry, and stop when<br />
satisfied. Babies also feed on breast milk, or formula (which are both a<br />
balance of protein, fat and carbohydrates). From your first breath, this<br />
is how your body is meant to be fed -- it’s the feeding rhythm your<br />
body needs to stabilize its blood sugar and optimally function on all<br />
levels. If this is the way the body is meant to be fed, why do we ever<br />
stop eating in that fashion? Perhaps, stress, society, life and lack of<br />
education become roadblocks that shift our focus away from eating<br />
correctly. <strong>The</strong> solution to these challenges are simple! You just need<br />
to get back to feeding your body the way it has always been meant to<br />
be fed. <strong>The</strong> RVLution program will teach you exactly how to do this.<br />
RVL Is Key in Stabilizing Your Blood Sugar<br />
Face it! We all live busy lives, and time is our greatest commodity.<br />
Through all my years in coaching clients, the biggest challenges my clients<br />
experienced were eating 5-6 times a day and using a meal replacement<br />
shake or bar that tasted good, was nutrient dense and satisfied them.<br />
With RVL, those challenges are a thing of the past! <strong>The</strong> RVL products<br />
are quick and efficient meal options during the most difficult times to<br />
eat through the day (breakfast, mid morning, mid afternoon and late<br />
night snack)
