Have any of you tried eliminating beef, pork, poultry from your diet? Mine reduced to just 2 days since doing this.
I eat poultry. I need animal protein lol...my period comes when it wants even when I went vegan for about four months. But it only lasts about 4-5 days and the flow is not heavy after the first day.
I get better results in the gym incorporating chicken and seafood verses plant based proteins.

Interesting, I upped my fish/seafood consumption when I began working w/my trainer 4Xs a week, but I began experiencing physical PMS symptoms and cut back. I still eat fish/seafood but my protein powder is vegan. I gained muscle mass w/this powder even when I wasn't working out. Now that I'm back I'm making noticeable gains w/it. I do think spirulina and chlorella have been helping because they are such healthy protein sources.

Plant protein wasn't doing it. So I went back to Whey. It definitely gives me better performance since I do weights four days a week along with my cardio. As far as PMS, i actually noticed less of it with the chlorella/spirulina blend and regular poultry consumption. This has also helped with fat loss as well. I can't say that the spirulina and chlorella are contributing to that (truthfully I would need to take much more for it to protein compensating) but my skin looks phenomenal and that's a lot with everything I've been going through with it.

Every body is different, so I like hearing how others are supplementing their workouts.

And everyone keeps talking about noticeable changes in skin from S&C, but I cannot concur. I see no changes at all. I guess my body is putting it to much better use elsewhere.

Yes, with any supplement, your body puts it where it's needed. I mean, my skin wasn't like BAD or anything, but I can see a glow.
Plus I know there are many other health benefits because it's such a valuable Superfood.
 
I went up to 4 of the 50/50 pills a day over a two-week period. After a few days at 4, I began experiencing gassiness, stomach cramps, & very soft stools. I think it was too much, too fast & my body struggled to adjust & detox.

Yes, your body will definitely tell you when it's detoxing too fast. I usually keep a pretty alkaline diet so I started with 10 of the 50/50 pills (5 in the morning, 5 in the evening) but when I started out with the recommended 15 all at once, my body let me know it lol...

I had to work my way up. Breaking it up has helped a lot.

I had the WORSE detoxing experience with Diametacious (sp) Earth. I took too much at once and I literally got sick.
 
Well, I was also changing my diet at the same time I started the pills (to focus on consuming more protein & fats/less carbs because I realized I was carbo-loading and was still ALWAYS hungry). Now that it's been a while and my body is settled into that new diet, I'm ready to incorporate c&s again.

Speaking of every body being different, my protein powder is from peas- dairy based powders always make me so sick.

My other Supergreens from Nutri-Bullet came today to add to my Smoothies.

It is the "Beauty" one for Hair, Skin and Nails.

So, I'll try this one once I finish with the Supergreens "Cleanse" with the Chlorella & Spirulina. (I have a back up of this one) and will buy a back up of the Beauty one especially since I have been adding Supergreens regularly to my Nutri-Blasts in the morning.

Will reassess all of this in September.
 
I tried Now Spiruluna and chlorella powder a few years ago and could not take the taste or smell. Recently I revisited Spirulina but tried the Nutrex Hawaii brand in my smoothie and I barely taste it. I've added ginger to my smoothie and I think this masks the taste a lot. I'm going to try to incorporate chlorella.
+1 on Nutrex Hawaiian Pacifa Spirulina. I had spirulina powder in another brand years ago and the seaweed smell when first opening the container was overwhelming.

^^^ Welcome to the phenomenal looking and feeling skin club!! So tell the truth, :sekret: do you find yourself running your hands over that beautiful skin now?:smile:
 
I've been taking Biotin and Bamboo as well along with my Chlorella/Spirulina tablets. I'm up to about 14 a day, 7 in the am, 7 midday. The recommended dosage is 15, tried that and I had some problems lol...that one extra tablet did make a difference.
\

With the 50/50 C & S, how many milligrams of each per tablet?
 
Still taking both Chlorella & Spirulina.

Also taking Per Day:
Beautifully Bamboo x2 (Supplements)
Phytospecific Cap Energy x2
Silicia x2

As well as my Supergreens from Nutri-Bullet. Will re-evaluate this regimen at the end of Summer.

Chasing that Summer Growth Spurt Hard. The "Dewy" Skin is also a plus.
 
@VirtuousGal
No, just as an additional supplement. I take other supplements as well.
Thanks, I am trying to address so many things through diet and vitamins but its piling up. I'm doin a multi, vitamin d, c, omega 3 and iodine drops in hopes that it will help with my hypothyroid. I liked the sound of Chorella as it seemed to have a lot of vits in it naturally. Trying to find the perfect mix.
