MNS Phase


MNS DAY 11

Wow, it is getting easier! The AdvoCare MNS weight loss phase gives your body the nutrients it needs to rebuild your healthier body, to break food cravings, increase energy, feed muscle and lose fat. Take the packs as it says on the front. Eat the right foods and small meals thru-out the day. Drink your spark in the morning and after lunch. No more than three daily is recommended. 
This phase of your Challenge includes…
  • MNS – Metabolic Nutrition System provides a comprehensive system for weight loss and weight-management. Each strip pack includes probiotics, appetite control, energy, core nutrition, omega 3′s, and more.
  • AdvoCare Spark delivers 4-5 hours of mental focus and energy, in a sugar-free vitamin and amino acid formula.* Available in Mandarin Orange, Fruit Punch, Grape, Citrus, Cherry, Pink Lemonade, and Mango Strawberry.
  • Meal Replacement Shakes provide a well-balanced, low-calorie breakfast that’s high in protein and fiber, while moderate in carbs. The nutritional profile feeds your muscle, not your fat. It’s available in Vanilla, Berry and Chocolate.
The HARDEST part of this is remembering to take the MNS packs. Get a schedule, set your phone for the time you need to take it. DON'T FORGET YOUR ADD-ON PRODUCT LIKE CATALYST  & DRINK WATER!

Food Ideas From Other AdvoCare Sites:

 ”What do I eat on the Challenge?”

That is the number one question I get from people regarding AdvoCare’s products and here is what I suggest…Looking and feeling healthy is created by a lifestyle you design for yourself to achieve your well being. It is an active process of becoming aware of and making choices.
Organic if you can - Our world is becoming more and more tainted with dangerous chemicals. In an attempt to increase production and capture bigger market shares, the use of fertilizers, pesticides and food additives; such as dyes and preservatives, has become so prevalent that “artificial ingredients” are now outnumbering “natural ingredients” on many food content labels. It is the opinion of many experts that this ever-increasing use of artificial fertilizers, pesticides, and chemical additives has a direct correlation to the ominous rise in cancer rates and other health problems.
Organic foods are rapidly becoming recognized as a logical alternative in this chemical-laden world. The focus on environmentally-sound agricultural methods and “sustainable” agriculture is getting the attention of many who are now concerned about what they’re eating as well as the environment. Organic food is a reliable and safe alternative to the issues regarding conventionally grown, processed, and packaged foods.
