Whether you’ve got your nose to the grind or you’ve been staying out too late, eventually it all catches up to you. Tiredness takes over and skin becomes more dull as it doesn’t get the precious rest it so deservingly needs. If this sounds like you, then Beautiful Nutrition has something that may help you out.
While catching a few more ZZZ’s will always do the trick over time, sometimes you need a helping hand by like say, the next morning. You’ve got a deadline at work, had a bit too much to drink last night, or stayed up too late pigging out and watching your favorite nextflix…whatev…it eats away at you by the time your alarm goes on in the AM and calling in sick is not an option. But you do have time to grab a bottle of cold water and a packet of Beautiful Nutrition Long Night Electrolyte Rebalancing Beautiful Morning Drink Mix, which gives you electrolytes, antioxidants and vitamins to hydrate, energize and fight free radical damage.
While I no longer imbibe, I do run late hours typing away at the computer or come back super late from trips out of town and each of these scenarios leave me wanting to smack the snooze button a few times before actually getting up. However, I go to a very good boot camp class in the early morning and I will NOT let those go to waste, so I get my butt up and outta bed and moan quietly to myself until I get downstairs for a quick breakfast. I find this drink works best for me after a particularly sweaty workout session.
The Beautiful Nutrition drink mixes are very easy to use, and they have SEVERAL different options from acne clearing, collagen building, calming, and detoxifying for all your beauty woes. I previously reviewed their acne clearing mix here if you want to read that later on. But with any of these, I usually use very cold water, some crushed ice, and a shaker bottle and NOT glass so it mixes thoroughly. As with the acne clearing mix, this is also a citrusy flavor.
The key ingredients of this mix work together to give your mornings a fighting chance:
Caffeine: Typically found in your cup of coffee, this mix has about 100mg which is the equivalent of about half a cup of coffee for me. It fights fatigue and usually starts working within the hour of drinking.
B-Vitamins: Such as Riboflavin, Thiamine, Niacinamide, B6, B12, and Pantathothenic Acid (B5)are known to support energy production. I remember my old high school coach urging us to take our B-vitamins before practice days so this struck a chord with me!
Resveratrol: This is a polyphenol that has antioxidant properties. And we all know antioxidants fight free radical damage and have anti-aging benefits to them by protecting the body against damage. To get the full benefits of this ingredient it is suggested to drink this up to 4 time (no more) per day. And if you’re drinking, make sure one of these mixes are used right afterwards!
Potassium, Sodium, Chloride: These three work to keep your electrolyte levels in check. Potassium and Sodium are balanced within each cell of our body, and without getting too technical, it keeps water levels within cells in check and signal transmission flowing. Chloride is an electrolyte that also keeps fluid balance within cells in check, helps regulate blood pressure and keeps pH levels of our blood stable. Just to be super clear electrolytes are important in keeping us healthy because with low levels you can feel dizzy, foggy,or experience cramps. This is why we are urged to have chicken soup when were sick, because it’s liquids, that usually have salt and other minerals in them that help balance fluid levels in our cell. Who knew chicken soup could be working at such a deep down level!
The Beautiful Nutrition Long Night Electrolyte Rebalancing Beautiful Morning Drink Mix comes in a container of 12 packets of which I’ll drink one a day when I’m feeling particularly exhausted. I have not had a need to drink 4 in one day and would be sad because it would run out more quickly. A 12 packet container will run you around $15
You can purchase this drink mix on Amazon or on LuckyVitamin if you want to give it a try! For further information on the Beautiful Nutrition, please visit their Facebook, Instagram or Twitter for updates!
