Beyonce puts Veganism on Top with New Vegan Diet Delivery Service

Everyone wants to know what this smooth-singing, high-riffing star does to stay in shape. Well, veganism just may have a great part to play in maintaining the star's fantastic bod! Beyonce and Jay-Z made headlines when they embarked on a 22 day vegan journey in the winter of 2013, with the help of their trainer, Marcos Borges. Beyonce shared pictures of yummy vegan meals that she and her husband ate via her instagram page.




The 22 Days Nutrition Vegan diet was born out of the concept that it takes 21 days to continue or discontinue a habit, and by the 22nd day, a person will be well on their way to adopting the newly found lifestyle.
"I am so grateful that I took the challenge and credit Marco with leading by example," says Beyonce.
"He is the most energetic person I know and it's all because of his decision to live a healthy lifestyle. He came up with a great program to get people motivated to make better nutritional choices. All you have to do is try. If I can do it, anyone can. I am excited to partner with him" she expressed.
Beyonce's decision to become more health conscious and influence others about healthy living, led her to partner with her trainer to launch the 22 Days Nutrition Vegan Diet delivery service. Borges, an exercise physiologist, daily shows people how they can transform their lives through exercise and specialized nutrition programs.
"We all know the importance and value of eating plant-based foods but often times find ourselves trapped in a series of bad habits that sabotage optimum wellness. The Vegan Meal Delivery program makes it easier to reset your habits with healthy and delicious plant-based foods" says Borges.


Beyonce & Trainer, Marcos Borges - 22 Days Nutrition



Those who choose to purchase the service have three options to choose from -- a one, two or three meal per day plan. This is a more flexible option for the individual who desires to slowly adapt to the lifestyle. The price point for the 1 meal per day plan varies between $78.40-$326.70 depending on the duration that is chosen. The three meal per day plan ranges from $106.40 - $609.84.
At these price points, we'd hope that the meals are 100% organic. Thankfully, they are indeed. The meals in the vegan delivery program are all dairy free, gluten free, soy free and plant based. A typical daily menu might include an almond berry breakfast loaf, Southern black beans and vegetables, and St. and Martin veggies and quinoa.
We can't vouch for the taste yet but the dishes all look pretty appeasing and tantalizing. We here at Simply Natural Solutions, know the benefits that can be had from eating a plant based diet. As a long time fan-girl of Queen Bey, she gets two thumbs up for striving to be a health conscious individual and for enlarging the pathway for others to embark on a journey towards health and wellness.

Nikocado Avocado Woke up 250lbs Lighter! Vegan Again?!

Image
The Mukbang king, Nikocado Avocado, broke his 7 month silence after uploading a video to his channel last night.   He first appeared in the video wearing a big Panda head mask.  Beyond that gigantic panda mask, there was something noticeably different about Nick!   There was a super thin body under the mask!  Could this be a clone of Nikocado?  Is this really the same person who would down several cheeseburgers, nuggets, stuffed tacos and huge plates of noodles in one sitting?  Nikocado is the self proclaimed mukbang king of the internet and with that title came loads of weight gain. It was a real shock to see him slimmer than what he used to be as a vegan.  At the beginning of the video, he stated how he was "two steps ahead."  He went on to say that he had been a part of one of the greatest social experiments of his entire life and likened himself to being a villain of a story where he was able to have significant influence over his fo...
