Why People Are Skinny Fat (and How to Fix It)
Are you skinny fat? Here are the three things you must do to fix it . . .
Read MoreMost of us don’t have time for an elaborate breakfast.
That’s why we force down microwaved eggs and oatmeal, or (shamefully) grab a pastry or two from the coffee shop.
It doesn’t have to be like that, though.
With breakfast sandwich recipes like these, you can whip up delicious and nutritious breakfasts in 10 minutes or less.
Even better, most of them store well in the freezer, so you can work them into your meal prep and just heat one up every morning.
Enjoy!
If you want to liven up a ham and cheese sandwich, try adding a different condiment than mustard and mayo. Mango chutney will add a sweet note to this savory sandwich, like the pairing of pineapple and ham but more mellow.
Make this one vegetarian by using soy ham slices or tempeh bacon. For carnivores, go with Canadian bacon which is usually uncured but can be smoked for added flavor.

Get the RecipeThis is breakfast like you’ve never had it before, and you might even think it’s the best breakfast sandwich yet. If you love having a pumpkin spice latte in the morning, may as well have a pumpkin sandwich to go with.
Just mix together the pumpkin puree with maple syrup and olive oil for an addictive spread. Make this as is for a vegetarian breakfast sandwich, or swap out the vegan sausage patty for chicken apple sausage instead.

Get the RecipeYou don’t have to eat breakfast sandwiches out of a box. These are easy to make at home, freeze, and reheat whenever you’re hungry. Start by making a simple egg casserole, which hardly takes any time in the kitchen.
Whisk some eggs with milk, and fold in the fillings you want like broccoli and cheese. After you bake the egg casserole, slice it up for the English muffin sandwich filling, and freeze for quick breakfasts.

Get the RecipePita isn’t just for shawarma and falafel. You can use the flatbread to make a great breakfast sandwich like this one with eggs and spinach. Other filling ideas include tasty combos like sausage and scrambled eggs.
Or, turn the pita into a breakfast pizza by heaping on shredded mozzarella, making a nest of fresh spinach, and then cracking the egg in the center to bake until the whites are set and the pita’s toasty.

Get the RecipeWhat if I told you that just about everything magazines and trainers “teach” you about dieting is wrong?
What if you could build muscle and lose fat eating “naughty” foods every week?
What if you didn’t have to suffer through low-carb dieting to get lean? In fact, what if you could eat all the carbs you wanted?
And what if you didn’t have to gorge yourself just to gain muscle and didn’t have to put on pounds and pounds of ugly fat, either?
In short, what if I told you that proper dieting--whether you want to maximize fat loss or muscle growth--is much simpler and more enjoyable than you’ve been led to believe?
Imagine eating delicious, filling meals every day...never feeling starved or stuffed...having great energy levels and workouts...and watching your body respond exactly as you desire, dropping fat or adding muscle each and every week.
And imagine finally understanding how proper dieting really works, never again falling for the BS, tricks, and gimmicks pushed by “gurus” and other shysters.
Well, I have good news.
All these “fantasies” can be a reality...if you know how to do a handful of “little” things correctly.
You see, when you know how to diet properly--and this doesn’t mean learning to eat boiled chicken and raw broccoli six times per day--getting lean and muscular becomes simple, convenient, and dare I say...enjoyable.
And this book will show you the way.

Great ingredients aren't enough to make a great product—you also need correct doses.
That’s why we use the exact doses of every ingredient that have safely produced the desired benefits in peer-reviewed studies.
Where your supplements are made matters, because rules and regulations regarding quality and purity differ from country to country.
And if you want to ensure the supplements you’re swallowing every day are safe and effective, you want products produced in the USA.
That’s why all of our supplements are made in America in NSF-certified and FDA-inspected facilities that operate in accordance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) regulations.
We pay a premium to work with the best manufacturers in the country, but it’s the only way we can also produce the best all-natural sports supplements.
Did you know that studies have shown that many supplements contain dangerously high levels of toxins like lead, arsenic, and cadmium?
Not ours.
Every ingredient of every supplement we produce is tested for heavy metals, microbes, allergens, and other contaminants to ensure they meet the strict purity standards set by the FDA.
While artificial sweeteners may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of these chemicals may indeed be harmful to our health and that more research is needed.
That’s why all of our supplements are naturally sweetened and flavored and contain no artificial food dyes, fillers, or other unnecessary junk.
Unlike some supplement companies, we don’t sell dubious white labeled or off-the-shelf formulations.
Instead, our custom and unique formulations are the result of extensive reviews of the scientific literature to discover the most effective ingredients for each.
