Monthly Menu Tip
Memorial Day is just around the corner!
It’s the perfect time to try our New
Weekend Survival kit. The kit is perfect
for anyone who may be eating additional
servings or foods that are not on plan.
It offers our new products: Carb Buster
and Fat Buster. They’ll help your body
break down both carbs and fats while
balancing sugars and providing steady
energy throughout the weekend. For the
best results, you’ll need to start taking the
products a few days before the weekend
to allow the body time to take advantage
of the added nutritional support.
