Day 7 – Monday – So Jaded!  It’s Time For A Quick CoEnzyme1 Experiment!

So Monday morning is here and all is back to normal, Laura’s back at school and now it really is time to buckle down and get some work done and really start to focus on losing some of the weight I gained this weekend.

Having said that, I would normally only promote a once a week weigh-in whereas I’ve been doing it daily as you know purely so that we could see what is happening but this is probably distorting my/our view of the results slightly.

What I mean by that is … when I weigh myself tomorrow (Tue) – exactly one week on, hopefully I’ll have lost a little bit of the weight gained over the weekend which means that, had I only weighed myself last Tuesday when I began and then again this Tuesday, I’d never have been aware of my weight gain over the weekend, if that makes sense?  My weight loss results would be as it shows on the scales tomorrow which is really what you want because our weight does fluctuate daily due to fluids.

But really it doesn’t matter what the weight loss figure is, so long as it’s going down, as I said before it’s not a race it’s an experiment, if I wanted fast results then I’d be having salad and water or three shakes each day but of course that’s not healthy so I don’t advocate or promote that.

CoEnzyme1 Or Should I Say ‘QuickSpark’ Sounds Just What I Need

Having had such a busy week followed by such a busy weekend, late
nights and alcohol, I must confess that today I am feeling a little jaded, my
energy levels are a little lower than they have been and what I have decided to do is to try one of Herbalife energy products, a product called QuickSpark which I haven’t got round to trying yet but which has had some fantastic press. I missed the product launch which is probably why I never got round to trying it because I
missed all the hype.  So I think I’ll do my own little experiment, a quick experiment within an experiment if you please!

So What Is CoEnzyme1 & What Does CoEnzyme1 Do?

Well, QuickSpark which is what the product is called, is a food supplement that contains CoEnzyme1 which can increase your cellular energy and can positively increase your ability to function and perform. (Well I’m already sold on just those two elements this morning!)

CoEnzyme1

Apparently every single cell in our body needs CoEnzyme1 to stay alive and we’ve got more than 60 trillion cells so it’s got a big job to do and although we naturally produce it from the nutrients in our diet it’s the same old story our digestive and cooking processes can destroy it so by the time it actually reaches our cells there can be very little left to go round!
CoEnzyme1 is the primary enzyme in the body and it fuels over a 1000 metabolic processes. If we increase our CoEnzyme1 levels we will have increased cellular energy, increased vitality and increased antioxidant protection for our cells.  In fact it’s the most powerful antioxidant known to science and can actually help repair damaged cells as well as stimulating Nitric Oxide production which is absolutely vital to the health of our heart and cardiovascular system and it also impacts on our immune system and stimulates our levels of adrenalin and dopamine our pleasure hormone which we need for better moods and confidence (yippee, bring it on …)
It comes in a lozenge that you dissolve under the tongue so it can get absorbed into the blood stream efficiently and has a pleasant mint taste, it’s totally safe and contains no caffeine, no sugar, no artificial stimulants and its only ½ calorie per lozenge.  it’s also approved by the Olympic Standards Committee so not only busy people like you and me can use it but weekend gym warriors or Olympic Athletes can use it too.
In fact it’s just good for anyone who has a busy lifestyle, a stressful job, for students studying hard or those who travel a lot or even for those who are getting on in years and who want improved cognitive ability, improved concentration and energy levels as well as visual perception.
So lets see what happens over the next few weeks or so, let’s see if I notice any difference or not?
And now to the dreaded stats …
