How to measure your portion sizes

Portion control is easy when you know what a proper serving size looks like. Discover easy ways to practice portion control when you're at the food court, making a snack or sitting down to dinner.
 
How to measure your portion sizesAlong with our expanding waistlines, the sizes of our bowls, cups and plates have also grown over the years. Just look at antique dinnerware as a comparison. Plate diameters are about 2 inches (5 cm) smaller on old porcelain, whereas today's new sets of china include plates that may be mistaken for serving platters. Using smaller plates, bowls and cups can help cut down on portion size, since petite serving vessels hold less food. Some people even use salad plates for their main course in an effort to curb gigantic helpings.

Nutritional Cleansing Purifies Lori’s Outlook on Life

Five words changed Lori’s life forever.Lori before

“You just need to cleanse.”

But when those words came from the lips of her chiropractor just a few short years ago, all she could do was burst into tears. After all, the now 55-year-old from California thought she’d already been “cleansing” for three weeks using a product that contained everyday ingredients like lemon juice and cayenne pepper.

Seven Ways to Slow Telomere Shortening

By Isagenix Nutritional Sciences

The future of antiaging is nigh with minds like Bill Andrews, Ph.D., and Isagenix Founder and Master Formulator John Anderson on the scene of telomere biology research.

Telomeres are non-coding sequences of repetitive DNA at the end of chromosomes that are linked to human lifespan — and Dr. Andrews and Anderson are seeking out natural compounds that will turn on expression of telomerase, an enzyme that restores the length of telomeres.

Keeping telomeres long by reversing age-related shortening can potentially slow the onset of poor health and increase human lifespan.

However, as we await the latest developments in antiaging strategies such as inducing telomerase activity, there are a few lifestyle changes we can make to slow down telomere shortening as much as possible.

What is Nutritional Cleansing?

 Cleanse for Life

The revolutionary practice of Nutritional Cleansing, which can result in greater health, well-being and weight loss, is the foundation in which Isagenix® and its systems were developed.

Nutritional Cleansing is built upon the health routine of cleansing, including fasting and drinking herbal remedies, which has been practiced throughout history. Cleansing gives the body the chance to rest, regenerate and assist in its natural ability to remove toxins and impurities to promote long-term wellness. However, Nutritional Cleansing improves upon this ancient practice with a system that cleanses, replenishes and revitalizes the body with essential nutrients. Fasting helps to remove impurities from the body, but Nutritional Cleansing speeds up this process by infusing the body with healthy nutrients.

Delta Flight Attendant Hits High Notes With Isagenix®

Though she travels domestically as a flight attendant for the world’s largest carrier, the voice of Beverely Vanessa Hill takes her across the globe.

Known as the “Opera Singer” among her Delta Air Lines colleagues, the professional opera singer’s talent helps her keep her focus as a Nutritional Goodwill Ambassador. The dedication to her craft that garnered Vanessa an Humanitarian Award with Delta, is reflected in her efforts for Isagenix®, the World Leader in Nutritional Cleansing and Replenishing™.

The soprano stumbled upon Isagenix several years ago, discovering the key to tuning up her health and nutrition. After a mishap landed Vanessa in a wheelchair back in 2005 and she had to undergo rehabilitation in the hospital, a doctor recommended that Vanessa lose some of the extra weight she was carrying, but gave her few options for accomplishing the feat.

Bon Voyage to a Size 12

Margaret spent the greater portion of her life not having to worry about her weight until she reached her mid-thirties. Now a little older and with a summer cruise planned, Margaret decided it was time to take control of her weight and reclaim her size 3 body, which had morphed into a size 11.

After witnessing the success her friend’s husband had using Isagenix®, Margaret started the Cleansing and Fat Burning System. Following the system felt “effortless” and the results were “fabulous,” says Margaret.

“I had an abundance of energy, felt stronger and more balanced, both physically and mentally,” explains Margaret. “I feel the healthiest I’ve ever been in my entire life.”

Margaret boarded the ship 32 pounds* lighter and 28 inches* smaller. But, her efforts didn’t stop once she reached her weight-loss goal and set sail. She brought IsaLean® Shakes and had them for breakfast, giving her extra energy to explore caves, scuba dive and swim with dolphins.

Why Nutritional Cleansing is More Important Than Ever

By Isagenix Nutritional Sciences

Situated at the summit of an auspicious mountain is the glorious Yumbulagang palace, the oldest palace in Tibet, with more than 2,000 years of history as a spiritual and healing center for kings and Dalai Lamas. Nowadays the palace is still a sanctuary for Buddhist monks and travelers alike who hope to take in the sublime views of the landscape below. The surrounding valley is so pristine and beautiful that legend has it that drinking water from a perennial spring found there will cure any disease.
You could say the palace is an ultimate place of purification where one can drink in pure spring water, breathe in pure air and enjoy health-giving foods grown from the nutrient-rich earth in the region. If you happen to be a monk living there, then you probably don’t need nutritional cleansing.
