Have you also wondered whether it is best to eat before or after exercise?  Or whether you should have your sports drink before or after exercise?

In terms of how food works:  carbohydrates are digested into within a short span of time.  Therefore, when you need an boost, your body will need carbohydrates.  Eating a small portion of carbohydrates before exercise is useful as it will help your body to perform at its best during exercise.  Examples are a small banana, 50-100ml fruit juice, or a few sips of your , or a small portion of carbohydrate rich drink.

When carbohydrates and proteins are combined, you will get a slower, more sustainable release of energy.  This is good when you are having a meal or a snack.  If your meal only consists of carbohydrates, you will have an energy spike, but soon after, also an energy dip where you feel mostly crave more carbohydrates as your body needs energy.  This might have you reaching for fast foods, sugary snacks etc.  Therefore, for every meal and snack, always combine your carbs and proteins.

Then one also needs to deal with the amount of perspiration during your exercise.  This can cause a drop in your hydration levels, which is not the optimum place for your body.  The Herbalife H3O Pro Isotonic drink can be enjoyed during and after exercise to help maintain your hydration and mineral levels.

If you are already on the Herbalife programme, have a few sips of your shake before your exercise, and the rest after as a meal.  If you are using the programme to gain weight, ensure that you prepare your after-exercise shake milk and added Herbalife Personalised Protein Powder.

Radiant C scrub
With winter nearing, many of us neglect our skin in the winter months and then the panic hits at the first sign of a sunny day!  Ideally we should have a good skin and body care routine, including exfoliation, all year round.

Want to have that on your skin all year round?  Within a month you can be there again! Typically, your skin regenerates every 28 days.  Exfoliating helps to take off any dull skin cells and will make your skin look and feel smoother and softer.  You will also get much more value from your moisturiser as it will absorb easier and not be wasted on dead skin cells.

A weekly scrub can also play a role in preparing for and prolonging your tan, making it more even toned, whether your tan comes from a bottle or from the sun.

The excellent range of Herbalife skin care products can help your skin to look radiant all year round.

Try the following for their exfoliation properties:
-Herbalife Body Buffing Scrub – use daily all over your body.  Follow with Body Contouring Cream for best results against cellulite.
-Nourifusion Exfoliation Scrub to help soften and smooth skin.  Use once a week in combination with your Nourifusion daily skin care regime.
- Facial Scrub Cleanser – a favourite for men as it combines your cleanser and scrub – no need to fuss.
