3 weeks off of Plexus



Time for another update...

So our family has been on Plexus for a while now and due to financial reasons we were not able to make our Plexus purchase last month. I figured this was a great time to be off the products and see if there was any difference in the way that we felt. Wow let me tell you I definitely noticed a difference.  Having a degree in nutrition and a background in holistic nutrition I was constantly taking supplements of different kinds at different times in my life and I honestly rarely noticed a significant difference in being on them versus being off of them. So usually I would just stop taking them. This is the first time that I can say that I NOTICE!!!

Lets start with the BioCleanse. This is our magnesium supplement. It does so much for our systems including cleansing toxins from our bodies, oxygenating our blood and keeping us regular in the bathroom. I stopped taking this and I noticed that I again started having trouble going to the bathroom regularly, which was not a struggle while I was on it.

The next product is our probiotic which is called Probio5. As soon as I stopped taking this I got lethargic and sick. I was so excited to get this in the mail this week because the kiddos are starting to get sick and I want all of us to be healthy this winter. Last winter was really hard on us and I don't think I could handle anther season like that.

Now the product that surprised me the most was the Slim. I honestly did not think this had helped me as much as it did. A few days after I stopped taking this I noticed my mood began to change. I thought I was just having normal women hormones and then it continued to get worse and worse. 3 weeks after being off it I was so overwhelmed that I began to have panic attacks again and just feeling depressed. The great thing about the slim is how much it really does balance out your blood sugar and in turn helps my mood and hormones to stay in check. My poor family this past three weeks have had to deal with my moodiness and my outbursts. I feel so bad for them. I do not want to ever again be off this. I am so grateful that the Lord brought this into my life when he did, I am so excited to see what the long term effects of these supplements will do for our family.

Stay tuned for posts about the products and new discoveries I make a long the way.
