Peanut Butter Protein PB fit Review

Jan 16, 2019

*product was received free of charge. All opinions shared are my own.

PROTEIN POWDER

My diet includes a percentage of protein to hit my macros. PB fit is a peanut butter powder. I added the powder to my blended drink, 2 tablespoons of the chocolate powder to eight ounces of almond milk in my blender cup. It has a rich, smooth chocolate taste blended with peanut butter flavor. If you like peanut butter and chocolate, you will enjoy this flavor. Most of the powder blended well with the milk, however, I did taste some of the powder at the bottom of my cup. For breakfast, I added a tablespoon to my oatmeal and it was a yummy addition. This powder compared to others I have tried has a smooth texture and no gritty aftertaste.



NUTRITION

The nutrition facts give two options for a low-calorie powder. The chocolate powder has only 50 calories, 1.5 g fat, 95mg sodium, 3g sugars, and 4g protein. Peanut butter powder has 70 calories, 2g fat, 150mg sodium, 2g sugars, and 8g protein. In addition to smoothies and shakes, the protein can go in oatmeal, pancakes, and waffles. When water is added to the protein, it makes a spread for fruit or snacks. The powder is non-GMO and gluten-free. Compared to other protein powders the caloric intake is perfect for an alternate due to the low sugar and calories. However, for me to meet my daily protein I would need to add multiple servings to each meal. For additional recipes, check out http://www.betterbodyfoods.com.

Physical and Mental Health with Yoga to Improve Flexibility and Focus

Yoga Practice

This is the year to start something new. My physical and mental health is important for handling daily stress in addition to my weekly workouts I am trying to find activities that fit as well. I signed up for the Prime class at Verge Yoga Center https://vergeyogacenter.com/on Sunday. The class was an hour long with yoga poses and breathing. It was my first yoga class in years and it was more challenging than I imagined. I have a lot more practice before I master the art of using my body and learning to breathe.

It was an energizing experience and we are looking forward to our next class. My strength training helped with the multiple poses especially the ones that used my core. I am hoping my body gains more flexibility and balance. The poses and relaxation in the class are a great addition to my physical and mental health. I cannot wait until the next class.
