❄️ 25 Days of Plexus: Day 2 ❄️
On the second day of Christmas Plexus gave to me…
🎄 H U N G E R C O N T R O L S L I M 🎄
And I wondered 🤔, what does it do?
❄️ Instead of XOS fiber, HC Slim contains the vegetable fiber polydextrose in clinically proven amounts to decrease hunger and stave off cravings. If you want less hunger and more control, this is the Slim for you!
❄️Flavors:
Hunger Control Slim comes in Blood Orange Lemon Lime
❄️Why you need SLIM, regardless of your weight (hint: balanced blood sugars) 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
Whether you are overweight, underweight, or average weight, you benefit from balanced blood sugars for many reason. In the standard American diet without even meaning to, we consume an average of 22 tsp of sugar a day‼️Sugars in various forms are added to 73% of foods made in America. 🍔🥧🥫🌯🍰 In addition, our foods are not grown in the same fertile soil they were grown in 100 years ago and are very often picked far before their peak ripeness, when they would be packed with nutrients. This leaves us nutrient deficient, while overloading our body with excess sugars which can lead to poor insulin sensitivity and a host of other diseases. By replenishing the body with key antioxidants, PREbiotic fibers, and other probiotics and vitamins and minerals you will learn about this month, you will begin to improve your insulin sensitivity and metabolism. 🙌🏼
Insulin is like the “mother hormone” in your body. Every single cell depends on it and it communicates with all other hormones. As you achieve better blood sugar balance the effects will trickle down to other hormones, like your female and male hormones (estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone), thyroid hormones, cortisol hormone, and more. This is why we often see people decrease thyroid medication doses over time, have regular ovulation and less painful periods over time, start to sleep better (cortisol), lose fat around the midsection (cortisol), have improvements in their menopausal symptoms, and so much more. Hormones are the key to just about everything so blood sugar balance (AKA improved insulin sensitivity) is essential! Slim is all about improving insulin sensitivity and bringing that balance back to the body and everyone can benefit from that!🙌🏼
❄️Not sure which Slim to choose?
When helping a person choose between Slim XOS & Slim HC, I would ask a couple of questions (read all the way through):
1. Do you have diabetes? If yes, my vote would be HC. Increased polydextrose helps a bit more with blood glucose levels.
2. Do you complain about eating out of control amounts & always thinking about food? Then HC as we can actually make CLAIMS that it will help with hunger control.
3. Are you super “crunchy” & are very into cutting edge health? Then XOS because they’ll be in love with what that prebiotic does.
4. Do you have known digestive issues and gut imbalances? Then XOS Slim would be a great fit to “feed” the good and crowd out the bad. If they experience more bloating and digestive upset and you’ve eliminated probio5 as the culprit, perhaps switch to HC Slim month 2.
5. Do you want to lose weight? My choice here is to always educate them that the clinical studies show 2 Slims a day w/ Triplex=weight loss and I’d choose 1 of each kind for the combined benefits OR 2 HC/day. Week one alternate the slims each day and just use 1/day. Week 2 add in a second Slim, one of each kind each day. OR have them do 2 HC/day.
6. Do you have autoimmune conditions? Many folks with autoimmune have done well with XOS, but some have struggled. I suggest asking them the above questions and using that as my guide. I generally lean towards HC for autoimmune.
My feeling is that you can’t go wrong with either choice & some will naturally prefer one flavor over another. Just like any other natural health product, there is an adjustment period. Some initial bloating, gas, weight fluctuations, headaches, changes in energy and appetite are possible and should not be much of a concern. Increasing water consumption usually helps with all of that!
Whichever Slim you are currently drinking, finish a full month or two before determining if it’s the right fit instead of bouncing around from day to day or week to week. Sometimes people get the same results on each one and they just choose the flavor they prefer. If one isn’t a good fit, the other is sure to be. I can’t stress how beneficial balanced blood sugars are to EVERYTHING! I happen to love BOTH and I LOOOOOVE that we have OPTIONS!!! I think switching up which one you drink every so often could be very beneficial in the long run!!
Tell us in the comments which slim you drink daily!
