My Morning Routine with TeaWell™ Organic Wellness Teas

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone.  #BeWellTeaWell #TeaWell #CollectiveBias

I don’t know about you guys, but my morning routine is everything! It literally sets the tone for the rest of my day. I like to start off with a nice balanced and filling breakfast and something to get my digestion and mind going. I found that coffee was giving me that dreaded caffeine crash later in the day, so I decided to try switching it up. Luckily I stumbled upon TeaWell™ at my local Sprouts.

TeaWell™ is a new brand of organic teas that is the first of its kind to deliver both delicious taste and health benefits. Each flavor features what they call the Daily Wellness Core which includes Antioxidant Support* green roobios, Immune Support* elderberry, Digestion* dandelion root, and Mental Vitality* panax ginseng. They’re also all caffeine free and non-GMO. They were basically exactly what I had been looking for with ingredients that help revitalize the mind and ward off fatigue while also helping to stimulate digestion. Plus the flavors sounded like the perfect compliment to any breakfast plate!

TeaWell™ comes in five different, delicious flavors - Organic Honey Lemon, Organic Lemon Chamomile, Organic Ginger Mint, Organic Turmeric Spice, Organic Matcha Green. I’ve been starting every morning with the Lemon Chamomile. I heat up water on the stove top while I prep my breakfast ingredients. Then I pour the hot water over the teabag in a mug, letting it steep while I cook. By the time I’m ready to eat, my delicious TeaWell™ Organic Lemon Chamomile is ready to go! It really works out perfectly to get the day started on the right foot. It’s also been a great way to get that extra immune support* and warm start during these cold months.

You can try one or all five of TeaWell™ tea flavors today at your local Sprouts store (found right in the tea department), or see here for other retailer options! Don’t forget to grab a BOGO coupon for your TeaWell™ purchase at Sprouts here!

GNC’s Earth Genius – Something for Everyone

This post is sponsored by GNC Earth Genius, however, I’m sharing my own thoughts. All opinions are my own.The US Food and Drug Administration has not evaluated the statements in this post. These products and statements are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

GNC recently came out with their own new comprehensive, wholesome line of products called Earth Genius. If you haven’t seen my previous post about Earth Genius and my experience with their Superfoods Supreme powder, you can find out more here. I have to say that I’ve been loving the Superfoods Supreme so much that I decided I needed to give some of their other products a try. They have a broad range of products to fit whatever health need you may have, so I decided to look into a few more deeply before deciding which to try next.  

There’s the Energizing TonIQ, an invigorating tonic that’s designed to help you wake up, refocus, and take on your day. It uses a natural source of caffeine from green coffee bean extract versus the synthetic caffeine found in many other dietary supplements. The Core Slimming Greens are specifically designed to help you reach your diet goals. It’s packed with fruits, veggies, greens, and a special all natural and caffeine-free herbal blend called Slimvance® which has been proven to increase weight loss and waist and hip reduction^.

^ A randomized clinical study of 140 healthy overweight people compared the use of Slimvance® in conjunction with an 1800 calorie diet and walking plan to a placebo with the same diet and walking plan. Those on Slimvance® lost almost 10 more pounds (-11.81 pounds vs. -1.91 pounds), lost over an inch more around the hips (-1.76 inches vs. -0.48 inches) and lost over an inch more around the waist (-2.12 inches vs. -0.68 inches) than the placebo group after 16 weeks.

The Beauty TonIQ is a tonic that is meant to protect and improve your skin tone thanks to Sicilian blood orange extracts. It also contains marine-based collagen to support healthy skin structure. Finally, there’s the Calming TonIQ, a tonic that promotes a sense of calm and relaxation. It is enhanced with adaptogenic mushrooms and Suntheanine L-Theanine.

They are all super easy to incorporate into your everyday life. You can just add a scoop to water and enjoy since they come in delicious flavors like cucumber melon, mixed berry, lemon cucumber mint, and raspberry green tea. You can also easily blend them into a smoothie, mix them into plain yogurt or oatmeal, or find other fun ways to play around and incorporate them into recipes (be on the lookout for one from me coming to Instagram soon).

I decided the Calming TonIQ was the way to go for me, as I’ve been having trouble relaxing at the end of the day and ultimately falling asleep. Like all of Earth Genius’ products, its non-GMO and gluten free with no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners. It comes in a lemon cucumber mint flavor which is delicious just mixed into water. I started drinking some an hour or so before I was ready to start winding down for the night, and it has definitely helped me to decompress, relax, and just feel at ease before calling it a night. It’s definitely worth giving a try if you’re like me and struggle with relaxing and winding down at the end of the day.

Do you want to try Earth Genius for yourself? You can find their products at your local GNC or online. Make sure to use the code 34126 now through 12/31/18 by showing the store manager in store.

GNC’s Earth Genius - Superfoods Supreme

thoughts. All opinions are my own. The US Food and Drug Administration has not
evaluated the statements in this post. These products and statements are not intended
to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

I recently stopped into my local GNC to discover that they’ve come out with their own new comprehensive, wholesome line of products called Earth Genius! I decided to give the products a once over because they have a pretty big selection, and, honestly, I was really impressed. The retail associate was also super helpful because they’re specifically trained to educate customers about Earth Genius, matching them with products that address their nutritional gaps.

In a nutshell, I learned that Earth Genius is inspired by nature and crafted by experts. All of their products are non-GMO, gluten free, and made with wholesome ingredients with no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners. They have a wide variety of products, so Earth Genius has you covered for pretty much any and every void you are trying to fill in terms of living a healthy lifestyle. It doesn’t get much more convenient than being able to find all the reasonably priced products you need in one place!

I decided that I needed to give Earth Genius a try, so I picked up their Superfoods Supreme powder. I decided to go with the Superfoods Supreme because, if you couldn’t tell by the name, it’s packed with superfoods. My diet has been a little iffy between the end of summer and some big life changes, so this seemed like a no brainer. It’s the perfect supplement to make sure you’re getting the vitamins and nutrients that you need to have a balanced diet.

It comes in a delicious mixed berry flavor and is seriously loaded with goodness. It’s packed with 35 different superfood ingredients plus protein. It also includes a prebiotic and enzymes to support healthy digestion. Just checking out the ingredient list makes it evident just how good this superfood powder is – there isn’t a single one that I don’t recognize! It’s packed with whole foods fruits, veggies, greens, sprouts, and beans. It also includes a blend of adaptogenic mushrooms and 6 g of vegetarian, plant-based protein. Basically it’s loaded! They suggest mixing the powder into water, making it super easy to take. I also found it to be a delicious addition to smoothie on the go.

So what’s the consensus? I’m a big Earth Genius fan! I really loved the Superfoods Supreme. It’s such an easy and delicious way to balance out my diet and pack in those superfoods. I’m excited to give the other Earth Genius products a try because they seem to have a wholesome, clean, and smart solution for literally any health goal. I’ll definitely give you updates as I try them.

Want to try Earth Genius for yourself? Well, you’re in luck because you can easily find their products at your local GNC or online. GNC was also kind enough to give me a code to share with you guys for 20% off any Earth Genius products online and in store from 9/27/18-12/31/18! To redeem in store, use the code 34126, and show the store manager. You can use this link http://bit.ly/_StacyEG and enter the code 34126 at checkout if you’d like to order online.

Renew Life® Probiotics – Live Healthier and Feel Better from the Inside Out

This post is sponsored by Renew Life®, however, I am sharing my own thoughts. All opinions are my own.

Gut health is a big focus in the health industry these days and for very good reason! The gut isn’t just at the literal center of the body; it’s truly is the body’s center when it comes to health and affects so many other parts of our bodies and daily lives. It can affect everything from how you sleep to stress levels and happiness. When balanced and healthy, your gut promotes better digestion and stronger immune health. Literally 70% of our immune system is located in the gut just to put it into perspective.

So how do we improve our gut health? A great place to start is by taking a daily probiotic. Probiotics help to restore the balance of flora in the gut. When the flora is unbalanced, it can lead to digestive and other health issues, so taking a daily probiotic helps to balance things out and keep them running and moving smoothly.

My go to daily probiotic is Renew Life. Renew Life is a potent probiotic with 3 times more good bacteria than leading brands as well as multiple scientifically studied strains to support digestive balance. These strains specifically reflect the natural diversity of your gut. Renew Life’s targeted release capsules help the probiotics to survive your stomach acid, allowing for more probiotics to actually reach the intestinal tract. Their potent formula contains 12 specifically selected Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus (often known at the “good bacteria”) strains to help restore digestive balance and support your immune health. They guarantee 30 billion live cultures per each capsule! The Renew Life vegetable capsules are also dairy free and gluten free.

There are so many benefits to adding in a daily Renew Life probiotic into your routine. They help to regulate digestion and can aid in avoiding that uncomfortable feeling, which is something that I’m pretty sure we all want to avoid on our summer adventures! They also support your immune health keeping you going for all the fun summer activities. Nobody has time for sick days when you could be swimming in the ocean or hiking that trail you’ve been wanting to try. A daily probiotic can also improve your mood. Did you know that 95% of the body’s serotonin in produced right in the gut? So a happy gut can mean a happy you, literally. Basically your gut affects just about everything important to feeling the healthiest and best that you can!

Renew Life offers a variety of products. I’ve been taking their Women’s Care Ultimate Flora Probiotic each morning with breakfast and have felt a noticeable difference. They also offer an Extra Care and Kids Probiotic, so they have something for the entire family. You can find out more about Renew Life and their products at: https://www.renewlife.com/extra-care-probiotics.html/. I’d definitely recommend giving them a try for yourself!
