I have been using supplements for years with little or no results, other than a deficit balance in my finances. That was until I did my due diligence on the Science Of Supplements, became more focused, and saw superb results. In my earlier articles, I promised to fill you in on my personal choice of supplement that helped me lose over 38 kgs and generally kept me healthy and feeling great.
1. The Struggle: Driving and Dieting
Having tried so many products, I was fast losing faith that there were any diets, supplements, pills, or shakes that could actually help me manage my weight. I had all but given up on being able to lose the excess weight.
Being on the road for 12 to 18 hours a day, 3 days a week, I found it impossible to follow a traditional diet. Many a night I bought packets of sweets simply to get the sugar rush to keep me going the last 500kms. I was trapped in a cycle of poor eating habits, but I knew I had to find a way to take control of my health.
2. The Science of Supplements & Bioavailability
Before jumping into my personal journey, it's crucial to understand why so many generic supplements fail, leading to that "financial deficit" I experienced.
The secret lies in bioavailability—the proportion of a nutrient that actually enters your circulation and has an active effect. The South African market is flooded with cheap, synthetic vitamins (like magnesium oxide or generic calcium carbonate) that the body struggles to absorb. High-quality nutritional supplements utilize chelated minerals, organic compounds, and precise metabolic balancing to ensure your cells actually receive the fuel they need.
Furthermore, a premium nutritional shake isn't just about cutting calories; it's about delivering a dense profile of bioavailable protein, fiber, and micronutrients that stabilize your energy without the crash.
3. Finding The Solution
The Newspaper Advert
I enjoy reading the classifieds in the newspaper (I usually read all 5 of the week's papers on Saturdays). One day I came across a little newspaper ad with a telephone number. The number was for a city 260 km's away, but heck... I was desperate, and I drove there 3 days a week anyway. I phoned.
More False Promises?
I wasn't too enthusiastic, and I certainly made that clear to the poor guy on the other end of the phone. He assured me of the 30-day money-back guarantee and gave me a simple plan: take 2 fiber tablets 3 times a day, drink a nutritional shake twice a day, and eat 1 moderate, sensible meal of my choice once a day.
For once, I jumped up and checked the product on the internet. There were tons of testimonials globally. Yes, there were people that were unhappy, but my dodgy mental calculation showed they were a tiny minority.
The Basic Package
I picked up my basic starter pack and carried it with me for 2 days until I returned home. We read the brochure, and it was decided by my better half that I would be the guinea pig, as she was tired of all the "Mambo Jumbo" spoken by the wellness industry.
Personal Follow-up
I was told to fill in a chart with my measurements and weight, and to email it to my coach weekly so that he could do a personal follow-up. "Personal follow-up.... sure," I thought. But I dutifully sent my chart to him and started the program on a Wednesday. Surprise, surprise—Thursday at 2 pm, I received a call: "How did you enjoy your shake today?". That accountability made a massive difference.
4. My 38kg Results & Maintenance
I have never looked back. I lost 18kgs in 3 months and I just kept going. Everyone was asking how I did it and if I could show them. I eventually signed up myself to get the distributor discount.
After reaching my goal (losing 38kgs total over time), I transitioned onto one shake a day for breakfast, as it is quick and easy to make and drink. It has been part of my daily life for years now. I can literally feel the difference in my energy when I skip my shake, so I make sure that it is my daily breakfast staple.
It's Simple. Your one solid meal is a meal of your choice—eaten in moderation. When combined with a balanced lifestyle, it offers an incredible foundation for wellness.
