Metamucil ~ Heart Healthy Prize Package {Giveaway}~ 2 Winners

GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED
In Honor of VALENTINE'S DAY... Here's to a Healthy Heart... with Metamucil

Okee Dokee.. sometimes ya just gotta get right to the point! No beating 'round the bush! Today's giveaway is all about HEALTH, from the inside out! We all know fiber is an important dietary need but are we getting the recommended amount we need? Did you know that not all fibers are the same? It's true! Certain types of fiber can give you more health benefits than others so it's imperative to be a good consumer and know what your buying!

Have you heard about Psyllium fiber? It's been shown to help reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering cholesterol! YUP! Not all types of fiber can do this.

The active ingredient in Metamucil is, you guessed it... Psyllium! So it's a heart healthy product. Watch this quickie video that explains how Metamucil works...



Here are some helpful nutrition tips from Nutritionist Carrie Wiatt to start the New year off right :) I thought we could could all use a tip or two ;)

• Always plan your meals ahead of time so you can stay on track. This will help you think about the foods you need and help you to avoid things like fast food.
• Preset your portions by using smaller dishes. Start off by measuring your food for a couple of days so you can visualize your amounts.
• Be sure to incorporate plenty of fiber into your diet; fruits and veggies are a sure bet and a psyllium fiber supplement, like Metamucil, can help you meet your daily requirements, plus, unlike other fibers, psyllium fiber has been shown to help reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering cholesterol
• Clean out your kitchen environment. Take out foods that are processed, and overall try to eat less sugar, fat and salt.
• Practice mindful eating by slowing down the rate of your intake. This will help you eat less and have better digestion.

I was Blessed to receive a Metamucil Orange Smooth Texture Sugar Free to review...
Mix Metamucil® Orange Smooth Texture Sugar Free into at least 8 ounces of water or your favorite beverage for a convenient way to add fiber to your diet. I love that this is sugar free. Only 20 calories per glass. No grit and I rather enjoyed the fruity orange flavor! Can't wait til tomorrow morning for another glass!

I didn't get to sample the next 2 products but I wanted to include them in my review because TWO Leslie Loves Veggies Readers will be winning a Prize Package that will include them! :)
