Standing In A Pet Store

Do you have a pet? We have three dogs and they are a part of our family in a big way. If you do have pets, I'm sure you feel the same way we do. They bring us such joy and happiness. We, of course, want to treat them like they're family and we do.

I was standing in the pet store the other day and I was looking for some new food for my dogs. I was actually looking at the different foods and reading the labels on each bag. When I was doing this there were many people that came by and began doing the same thing. We were all checking out the bags and started to ask each other questions. You know like, "What do you feed your dog"? Or, "Have you ever tried this one before?"

At that moment I just stopped in my tracks and it hit me. I was blown away because it brought everything into focus for me. All these people were standing there reading the label for their precious pets. They were looking for the best nutritious food they could find. I had to ask myself, "Why do people do this for their pets and not themselves?" We become label readers for our pets, but not for us.

Not only are we label readers, we actually don't mind spending money for quality food for our pets. Have you checked the price for quality dog food lately? Every bag I looked at was pretty expensive and please keep in mind we have 3 dogs. It gets a bit spendy on a monthly basis, but we do it. We want them to grow up big and strong.

Reading labels is a good start for better health, but the challenge everyone has is understanding the label. It is hard to read some of the ingredients or figure out if it's actually something other than what it says it is. The reason I say that is because the name for aspertame can be found disguised as many other names. So what are you supposed to do? If you question one of the ingredients or you can't pronounce it then put it back on the shelf.

There is one thing I do to make sure that I never find myself in that situation. I follow the "7 Day Challenge" protocol. It is an amazing schedule of products that provide me with powerful nutrients. I also have a health coach at my disposal should I have any questions about any of the ingredients.

I have a tremendous amount of confidence in these products because I have been on this protocol for over 240 days. My results have been amazing as I have released 15 pounds, 10% body fat and I'm now 21 years younger metabolically. The next time you are reading a pet food label please start to think about the food you eat. You deserve the best food on the planet and you won't find any finer food than Isagenix. Don't believe me? Then read the labels!
