MonaVie RVL 3.0 Formula Coming Soon
Here's a message from Dr Shawn Talbot on his International Olympic Comittee Sports Nutrition experience.
I’m extremely excited about an upcoming product launch at MonaVie.
We’re just about to introduce an updated version of the popular RVL
Nutrition Shake Mix. Keep in mind that the shakes were already amazing
in terms of overall “nutrient density” and balance between
protein/carbohydrates/fat/fiber, but we took this opportunity to make
them even better.
At the company, we refer to this revision as RVL “3.0” because it is
the third time we’ve determined that the science of nutrition had
progressed enough to warrant an update to the formula. Based on that new
science, we adjusted the protein level and source, we slightly tweaked
the carbohydrate blend, and we updated and improved the antioxidant
profile. What this means is a formula that tastes better, stabilizes
blood sugar more effectively, and controls appetite even more
effectively than ever before—so you can lose the fat and keep the lean,
to look and feel your best.
The new RVL Nutrition Shake Mix is based on a formula that I submitted
as part of an International Olympic Committee (IOC) sports nutrition
program that I'm a part of. Around the same time that I submitted this
formula to the IOC program (May 2012), we were also in the process at
MonaVie of updating the “2.0” RVL Shakes. So, when my IOC program
colleagues came back with such positive feedback on the formula I
submitted (top score based on overall balance from among approximately
100 submissions from around the world), I figured, that if it's good
enough for the IOC, and good enough to recommend to the world’s top
athletes, then it's probably a great place for MonaVie to be as well.
So, we decided to use this same formula as the basis for our RVL 3.0
Nutrition Shake update.
I've been part of the "Olympic" movement for a lot of years—first as a
rower in the Olympic development program (1989), then as a cyclist at
the Olympic training center (OTC) in Lake Placid (1991), then as a
consultant to the U.S. Olympic Committee (USOC) and the U.S. Ski Team
(2002), then part of the Performance Enhancement Team (PET) for the U.S.
Track & Field Association and the OTC in Chula Vista (2003), and
now part of this IOC sports nutrition group (2012-2013).
I’ve worked with lots of elite athletes and coaches, and it is always a
challenge to provide those athletes with proper nutrition to support
the demands of their intense training and competition. Those athletes
have the same “needs” as the rest of us. They want something that tastes
great (and the 3.0 shakes taste amazing!); and they want optimal
nutrition to help them lose fat, maintain muscle, curb hunger, and help
them feel their best (and RVL 3.0 accomplishes each of these factors
with flying colors).
One thing that’s important to keep in mind is that although I’m a part
of this IOC group, and the group “likes” the balance and content of the
formula found in the MonaVie RVL Shakes, the IOC is not officially
“endorsing” MonaVie products. In some ways, this situation is similar to
the relationship that my good friend and MonaVie fitness &
nutrition spokesperson, Mark Macdonald, has with the CNN news channel.
Mark is a
NY Times bestselling author and a frequent
contributor to CNN’s healthy living segments, but CNN does not
officially “endorse” MonaVie products.
I couldn't be more excited for you to come to Orlando for the MonaVie
Convention January 31–February 2 to hear more about the amazing new
update to our RVL Nutrition Shakes (and taste them, too)!
Thanks for reading,
Shawn
