BLUF: Energy is the strength and vitality required for sustained physical or mental activity. It is never created nor destroyed, but merely transformed from one type to another. So why is it, the older I get, the less energy i feel I have?

Between workdays and workouts, a boost of energy is essential to my quality of life. Unfortunately, overdosing on caffeine isn’t the healthiest option. 

•Some years back, one of my best friends @steph.beauchamp introduced me to a product called Spark. We were in college, attending classes during the week, working and partying on the weekends, and we had just decided to take our workouts up a notch. I was feeling low on energy so Steph fixed me an ice cold glass of Mango Spark. Within 20 minutes I had forgotten that i was feeling tired in the first place. It’s not that feeling you get when you take preworkout. You don’t itch, your heart doesn’t race, you simply feel boosted as though you just woke up from 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Now i like to take mine midday right before i begin to feel exhaustion kick in.

•I’ve listed a few of the ingredients below and highlighted some of their benefits.

Vitamin A, C, E Thiamine-enables the body to use carbohydrates as energy. Riboflavin – helps break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. Plays a vital role in maintaining the body’s energy supply. Vitamins B6, B12, pantothenic acid (B5), – B vitamins have a direct impact on energy levels, brain function, and cell metabolism. Caffeine – 120 mg ( a little more than 1 cup ofCoffee). Inositol

•Honestly, I think the key to increasing energy is changing your diet. Nutrition is everything, but it’s an uphill battle and in the meantime a healthy supplement is what I’ve chosen to help me get through. @Advocare’s Spark product has been my go to for years now. My favorite flavors are grape and fruit punch. 
Spark is largely sold through advocare distributors. I’ll leave my link at the bottom of the blog. But if you’re looking for an easier way to obtain it’s sold on Amazon!! 

Everyone could use a little Spark! 😏 WWW.ADVOCARE.COM
