VITAMINS

Q’s and A’s with Cheryl & Tennille / Della Naturaceuticals

Question:  Some of the information on your website pertaining to vitamins states they work “synergistically together”, can you explain what this means?

-Lynn Petersen

Della’s Answer:  Synergistic is from the Greek word synergia which means, “Joint Work”.  Ingredients in our vitamins are synergistic when they work together with other ingredients to produce an effect that they normally couldn’t produce on their own.  This is important for proper formulation for vitamins and absorption in the body.  Great question!  –Della

Question:  Can you explain Vitamin B Complex and how they work in our body?

-Jay Olsen

Della’s Answer:   The Vitamin B Complex family is encompassed of all the vital B Vitamins.  B Vitamins are vital because they are needed for the proper workings of almost every process in the human body.  You need to have plenty of B complex vitamins in your daily diet.  The complex consists of Vitamins B1, B2, B5, B6, B9, B12, Biotin, Choline and Inositol.  Vitamin B Complex is essential for energy production, because it helps the body convert carbohydrates to glucose and then it converts that glucose into energy.  It promotes healthy skin, hair and nails while helping with heart disease and aids in lowering cholesterol.  Helps produce a healthy nervous system and good digestion by breaking down proteins, fats and carbohydrates.  These vitamins help with weight loss by increasing your body’s metabolism to burn fat.  B vitamins are water-soluble and will be excreted through the urine.  This means that B Vitamins need to be taken on a daily bases.  –Della

Question:  I’m interested in purchasing the vitamins called Vitality Complex-28.   In reading the information on your website I noticed that your formula contains both vitamins and minerals.  Other brands that I looked into sell them separately.  Can you please explain why your vitamins and minerals are in one tablet? 

-Mia Davis

Della’s Answer:   Hi Mia, we’re glad to see that you’re interested in taking a vitamin and mineral supplement.  Vitamins and minerals need to be taken together for proper assimilation in our body.  Basically one can’t absorb (work) without the other.   The formulation allows us to take less pills and it’s more economical as well.  Vitality Complex-28 is a daily supplement rich in vitamins and minerals for the maintenance of energy and the preservation of good health.  This combination is excellent for providing essential nutrients needed during weight loss, too.  Vitamins and minerals are the foundation for optimum health!  –Della

Question:  I’m a little embarrassed to ask this question…can you give me some tips on how I can remember to take my vitamins every day?  I know I’m supposed to take them twice daily but many days I forget because on some days I don’t eat breakfast and I know vitamins work better when taken with food.  Other days I work late, eat out or I get lazy and forgetful. 

-Dana Mayes

Della’s Answer:  Hi Dana, thanks for being brave enough to ask, I’m sure other people forget to take their vitamins, so they’ll benefit from this answer too.  A good practice to help you remember to take your vitamins is to place them on the kitchen counter.  This way you’ll see them first thing in the morning and after dinner.  Plus it’s convenient because you’ll be near something to drink, preferably water.  Another tip, is you can take the vitamins out the night before and place them in a plastic baggie – take the baggie with you so you can take them after you eat your first meal.  They’ll also be with you if you’re dining out.  Just don’t leave them in your car though, vitamins need to be stored in a cool, dry place and away from sunlight and heat.  Also, don’t refrigerate them.  Once you get in the habit of taking your vitamins daily, it will be like brushing your teeth twice a day!  –Della

Question:  I want to order some of your vitamins and diet pills.  I have some non-serious medical conditions.  Do you recommend that I tell my doctor what I plan to order?

Connie Stansfield

Della’s Answer:  Hi Connie, this is a very important question and we’re glad that you asked it.  Even though our vitamins and weight loss products are high quality, all natural and pharmaceutical grade we recommend that you inform your doctor.  You can print out the information on the products you plan to purchase and bring it (fax) to your doctor.  Please feel free to contact us if you have any concerns.   –Della

Question:  Hi Della, should I take vitamins even though I eat healthy?

-Mark Wilson

Della’s Answer:  Great question, Mark.  Many of the foods we eat are devoid of the proper nutrients due to lack of nutrients in our soil, storing and cooking.  Many of us eat healthy but not consistently.  Vitamins and minerals are the foundation for optimal health and we do benefit greatly from supplementing our diets with vitamins, minerals and other nutrients.  Vitamins and minerals are essential if you’re on a weight loss program as well because many times we have cravings because our body is craving nutrition.  Studies show that people who take vitamins and minerals especially when dieting have fewer cravings.  –Della

HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT:

Question:  Hello Cheryl and Tennille, I am very confused about the conflicting views out there regarding when and how often to eat for weight loss.  I have heard that you should eat like 6 meals a day and eat every 2 hours to keep your metabolism going, but I tried that and ended up putting on more weight instead of losing weight.  I have heard that you should not eat any later than 8:00pm, but then others say to eat some protein before bed.  Can you clarify this for me so I know how to eat and how to lose weight?
-Beth Berkawitz 

Della’s  Answer:  Hi Beth, this is a great question!  We get this one a lot so I will be sure to share this one on our forum.  You are right; there are very conflicting views as to when and how often you should eat.  Here is what Della recommends…Eat 3 healthy well balanced meals per day and one snack.  Never skip breakfast!  You should eat within and hour of waking up in the morning and then eat every 4 – 6 hours.  The reason why we do not agree with eating 6 meals per day every 2 hours is because if you are eating every 2 hours, you raise blood sugar and insulin and your body doesn’t ever need to access stored fat for fuel.  You need to allow your insulin level to come down so that your body can use its stored fat for fuel.  Be sure that your meals contain protein, veggies, whole grains and have some fruit and almonds as a snack.  You want to make sure your meals are well balanced and satisfying so they keep you full for 4 – 6 hours and you eliminate excessive snacking.  We recommend that you stop eating 3 hours before bedtime.  I hope this helped and showed you how to lose weight while eating healthy.

Thanks–Della  
 

Question:  Which of your weight loss pills gives you the most energy?  I want to kill two birds with one stone here.  I want to lose weight and have more energy.  Each day is a struggle, especially around 3:00.  I feel like I could go to sleep and that is when I pick my kids up from school and need to have the most energy.  Please state how to lose weight and not crash in the afternoon.
-Suzie Rowland
 
Della’s Answer:  I am sure there are a lot of moms out there, who can relate to you Suzie, who want to know how to lose weight and have more energy.  I would have to say that our Lean Resolve™ would probably be the best one to give you the energy you are looking for to last throughout the day as well as help you to burn fat and lose weight.  Although, if you really want to see a difference in your energy level, try our Energy Plus Tabs™ along with the Lean Resolve™.  They are amazing vitamin B tablets that are sublingual…you just dissolve one or two under your tongue per day.  Also, the great thing about our products is they never make you feel jittery or give you a crashing type of feeling towards the end of the day.  They are all natural and very safe and healthy for your body.  Be sure to check monthly to see which product we are featuring as our product of the month so you can order and save!

HOW TO CHEAT (AND GET AWAY WITH IT)

By Tennille Sandella / Della Naturaceuticals

Let’s face it ladies, we all get those cravings.  Sometimes, I want it so badly that I feel like I might not survive without it.  I want it, I need it and I have to have it!  And men, it goes for you too.  So what do we do?  How do we say no to a temptation that is so powerful?  I will tell you how…by saying yes to something that will satisfy you without sabotaging you.  Here’s the deal…when it comes to dieting…oh, did you think I was talking about something else?  Sorry if I disappointed you.  Anyway, back to dieting…what happens is that we say we are starting a diet and that means in our minds that we can no longer have the foods we love or the foods that taste good and are bad for us.  What does this do?  It makes us want them even more of course.  So we end up giving in to our cravings and in our minds that means we failed our diet and most of the time we give up…till New Year’s Day or until we have a trip to go on and then we try again…starting Monday.  But what if you could have foods that taste good and satisfy your cravings, but aren’t all that bad for you?  Hmmmmm, I think I’ll call this your “allowed to cheat list”  You know when some people write that list of celebs that they are “allowed” to cheat on their spouse with if ever given the opportunity?  Well, this is similar…only with food…and Brad Pitt…he’s fat free.  I want to share with you some tips and some foods that work for me when I have those cravings that I can’t control.  Now, personally I take our DIEUTrim™ so most of the time, I’m fine and do not get such cravings; however, I’m keepin’ it real and in all honesty, when it’s that time of the month, I will go crazy if I don’t have chocolate or anything sweet that I can get my hands on followed by something salty.  I realized that during this time, I need to get a grip and make some changes.  Here are some things that I do that seem to be working for me:

Craving:  Chocolate          

Solution:  Have a piece of dark chocolate or get some healthy, organic hot cocoa made from real cocoa and make yourself a cup.  Some other ideas include having a fruit salad and sprinkling on mini dark chocolate chips or make yourself a healthy, chocolate protein shake. 

 Craving:  Cookies

Solution:  Have a bowl of healthy cereal.  I keep Honey Nut Cheerios in my house because they are sweet and have the texture of a cookie, yet they are made with whole grains and honey so they are a much better alternative to high calorie cookies.

Craving:  Potato Chips

Solution:  Make a baked potato.  Add some sea salt, healthy butter or melted cheese with broccoli…this is much healthier than eating several potato chips that are loaded with hydrogenated oils and high in sodium and calories.  

Craving:  Candy

Solution:  Fruit.  Grapes, Strawberries and bananas are sweet enough to substitute candy.  Fruit is healthy, you need a certain amount each day, and it is high in antioxidants and tastes good and sweet.  Candy is just plain bad…so have some fruit and for extra sweetness sprinkle some shredded coconut on top.  Try frozen grapes…yum!

Craving:  Nuts / Peanut Butter

Solution:  Keep raw almonds in the house to munch on…they are good for you and satisfy the craving for nuts or something crunchy.  If you crave peanut butter, make a healthy PB&J…buy healthy, all natural peanut butter at your local health food store and all fruit jelly.  Spread PB&J on whole grain bread and enjoy with a glass of soy milk.  Or spread peanut butter on some apple wedges or on celery.   Almond butter is also delicious!   

Craving:  Something salty

Solution:  Sunflower seeds.  Not only are they fun to eat, but they will satisfy that salty craving.  

I hope these suggestions help the next time you get a craving you can’t shake.  It’s much better to say that you had a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios to satisfy and cookie craving rather than a box of sugar cookies. 

If you eat a healthy, balanced diet and find decent “cheat foods” that satisfy your cravings instead of eating indecent “cheat foods” you will be on the road to weight loss and a healthy body!  If you have any questions at all, please feel free to Ask Della by clicking on Ask Della on our homepage.  www.DellaNaturaceuticals.com

HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT:

Q’s and A’s with Cheryl and Tennille / Della Naturaceutical

Question:  I looked through your website and your products sound wonderful, but I’m not sure which ones would be best for me.  I am about 30lbs over weight and I have been maintaining my same weight for years, but for some reason I have been struggling with how to lose weight.  I’m thinking I need some help and direction with which products to take.

-Mary Walters
 
Della’s Answer:  Hi Mary, so many people are in the same situation as you are and want to know how to lose weight, the healthy way.  They aren’t gaining any more weight which is good, but yet they can’t seem to lose weight.  What we recommend is that you start off with our NCH Tabs™ to cleanse your body of toxins and eliminate bloating.  Our DIEUTrim™ helps curb appetite and night time binging while boosting serotonin in the brain and making you feel happy.  It is one of our most popular pills along with the Lean Resolve™ and Lipo Release™.  The Lean Resolve converts fat to energy so you do not store fat and the Lipo Release gets the fat out of your body and cleanses the liver.  All are important and recommended.  They can all be taken together simultaneously as they all complement one another. 

Thanks for your question—Della

Question:  Hi Della, I have been having trouble fitting exercise into my daily routine.  Do you know of a program that is quick and not time consuming, yet effective enough to where I will actually see a difference and get a good work out.  I am a nurse so I work very long hours and I am usually very tired and sleep deprived.  I often do not feel like exercising.  I would love to know if there is an easy program to follow so that I can actually stick to it and it will show me how to lose weight. 
-Joy Maloney
 
Della’s Answer:  Hi Joy, have you ever tried bursting, also known as interval training?  It is the most effective way to shed pounds and yet it isn’t time consuming at all.  I’m sure you could fit in 10 – 15 min about 4 times a week, right?  Here’s how it works…start with a 2 -4 min warm up such as walking and then do 30 – 60 sec of cardio such as sprinting (so that you are completely out of breath…go full force) then walk for 2 min to catch your breath and repeat 3 – 4 times.  This should take about 15 min and should be done 3 -4 times per week.  On the days that you are not bursting, try to fit in about 15 – 20 min of resistance training.  You should see quick results and save time so you can get some much needed extra sleep.  Be sure to get a full 8 hrs of sleep!  Getting enough sleep is a very important component for how to lose weight.    Great question! Thanks–Della

Belly Fat

By Cheryl and Tennille Sandella / Della Naturaceuticals

We have been getting a lot of questions on how to lose belly fat.  Most people tend to store fat in the belly due to stress, lack of sleep and high carbohydrate diets.  We have a lot of clients who write in asking what exercises they can do specifically to lose belly fat.  Well, unfortunately you cannot spot reduce with exercise.  It is a misconception that if you do 100’s of sit-ups over and over again, that you will lose belly fat in your midsection.  It’s too bad for all of us that it doesn’t work that way.  If you do lots and lots of sit-ups, it will tighten your tummy under all the fat; however, the belly fat has to come off in order for your tight tummy to show.  When it comes to exercise to lose belly fat, we recommend bursting 3 – 4 times a week as a great and fast way to shed pounds all over (including belly fat) and resistance training 2 – 3 times a week to build lean muscle mass and also burn fat all over.  

Della Naturaceuticals developed MesoTone Cream™ for this exact reason…that you cannot spot reduce with exercise.  MesoTone Cream™ is a spot reduction transdermal cream that penetrates to the deepest layers of the skin to get rid of fat and smooth and tighten the skin to get rid of cellulite.  MesoTone Cream™ is great for getting rid of belly fat.  Now we always want to be clear that you cannot sit on the couch and eat gallons of ice cream and just rub this cream on to lose weight and expect to see a difference.  At Della Naturaceuticals we give you the total approach so we make sure you have the knowledge and tools to put yourself on a good, healthy diet, exercise effectively and regularly while offering you products to help aid in weight loss and health.  We feel that if you eat right, move your body and take healthy weight loss supplements while spot reducing areas with our MesoTone Cream™, it is a combination guaranteed to work and cause you to look and feel great!  Get started today and get rid of belly fat!

How to Get Rid of Cellulite

Q’s & A’s with Cheryl and Tennille Sandella / Della Naturaceuticals

Question:  My friend Amy loves your MesoTone Cream because it helped her firm her inner thighs so she recommended the product to me.  I need to get rid of cellulite on the back of my thighs.  Can you tell me how it will work for me?

-Deanna Pierce

Della’s Answer:  Hi Deanna, and thanks for writing.  MesoTone Cream will help you get rid of cellulite through a liposome absorption technology.  MesoTone Cream is formulated with key ingredients that penetrate the skin dissolving fat deposits and improving the blood flow to the area while improving lymphatic drainage to get rid of cellulite.   We hope this information helps and please feel free to ask additional questions any time.   Thanks –Della

Question:  My question is about getting rid of cellulite.  I had my first child 5 months ago and now I have cellulite on my hips, outer thighs and buttocks.  I’ve been dieting and exercising to lose weight but it doesn’t seem to be doing much to get rid of the cellulite.  Can you explain why?  Also, how can your MesoTone Cream help?

-Kayla Moore

Della’s Answer:  Hi Kayla, Congratulations on having your first child and thanks for writing.  As you can see getting rid of cellulite is a complex problem that diet and exercise alone can’t help.  Even women who follow an exercise routine and eat a low-fat diet may still have cellulite.  In order to get rid of cellulite it must be dealt with from the subcutaneous skin layer.  This is the deep layer where cellulite occurs.  MesoTone Cream gets into that layer of skin, where diet and exercise can’t.  MesoTone Cream dissolves excess fat deposits, improves blood flow and lymphatic drainage in that area.  It helps localized fat reduction by assisting in the breakdown of existing fat cells and blocking cells from storing fat.   MesoTone Cream will be a good product to use in conjunction with diet and exercise and will assist you in getting rid of cellulite.  –Thanks Della

Question:  I recently purchased the MesoTone Deluxe Bundle.  I started using it about two weeks ago and I’m already seeing my skin look and feel toner.  I purchased the cream to eliminate cellulite from my legs.  I have a few questions…since its winter and my skin tends to get very dry can I use other moisturizing lotion after I apply the cream?  I swim at my gym a few times per week during my afternoon break.  I apply the cream in the morning and then again at bedtime. I’m concerned that the cream is coming off in the pool mid-day and I want to know if I should re-apply it immediately after or can I wait until bedtime?  Thanks so much.

-Carla DeFranseco

Della’s Answer:  Hi Carla, we’re so happy to hear that you’re seeing results with MesoTone Cream in just two weeks!  Continue using the cream to help get rid of cellulite on your legs.  You can apply additional body lotion to your skin after applying MesoTone Cream but you’ll need to wait 10 minutes for it to thoroughly absorb into your skin.  MesoTone Cream contains shea butter, which provides ultra-moisturizing benefits so you may find that it is all you’ll need to keep your skin moist.   Vitamins A, C & E are also in the formula, which offer powerful antioxidant protection.   Once MesoTone Cream is absorbed into your skin you won’t have to worry about it coming off in the pool.  Yes, you can wait until bedtime to apply your second application.

Thanks for writing!–Della

Question:  Hi Della, I have a quick question…I recently bought MesoTone Cream to get rid of cellulite on my outer thighs and the back of my upper arms.  I read on your website that it can also be used on the eyes.  Is it safe to use on eye lids or just under the eyes? 

-Marion Timbers

Della’s Answer:  Hi Marion, MesoTone Cream is safe enough to use on eye lids, (but please make sure you don’t get it in your eyes).    The cream contains Hyaluronic Acid, which will cushion, lubricate and plump the skin.  It’s a great anti-aging cream for the eye area.  It is not only a great product to get rid of cellulite but it’s great to use for total face rejuvenation!  Enjoy the product! –Della

LIVE HEALTHY – CHAI OATMEAL RECIPE

January 19, 2011 by Cheryl and Tennille Sandella / Della Naturaceuticals 

Chai Oatmeal Recipe:

1 cup water

½ cup vanilla soy milk or coconut milk

2 teaspoons agave nectar

¼ teaspoon vanilla

¼ teaspoon cinnamon

¼ teaspoon ground cloves

¼ teaspoon sea salt

¾ cup oats (not quick cooking)

2 cinnamon sticks – optional

In medium sauce pan combine water, soy milk and spices (cinnamon sticks).  Bring to a low boil over medium heat.  Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring continuously.  Remove cinnamon sticks.  Add in vanilla, agave nectar and oats.  Stir.  Cook over medium heat, stirring, for approximately 20 minutes or until oatmeal is creamy.  Serve hot with additional soy milk and agave nectar to taste.  Makes two servings. 

Options:  stir in your favorite protein powder (may have to add more milk) this is a great way to add protein to the meal.  Add this in after the oatmeal is cooked. 

Oatmeal Health Benefits:

There are over 40 studies that show eating oatmeal may help lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease.  It usually takes ¾ cup of oatmeal each day to help lower cholesterol.  The soluble fiber in the oats is what helps remove the bad cholesterol (LDL), while maintaining the good cholesterol, which is what your body needs.

Oatmeal can help control weight because the soluble fiber in oatmeal absorbs a lot of water which slows down your digestive process.  This process will result in you feeling fuller longer, which in return may help you eat less, lose weight and inches and live healthy.   

Other studies show that oatmeal may also reduce the risk for type 2 diabetes.  It is recommended by the American Diabetes Association that people with diabetes eat grains including oats because oats help control blood glucose levels as they contain soluble fiber. 

Della recommends purchasing all natural rolled oats.  Some of the flavored or quick cooking oatmeal products are not 100% all natural and contain other ingredients such as sugar, which defeats the health benefits associated with eating all natural oats. 

Recent studies show that a diet that includes oatmeal may also reduce high blood pressure to live healthy.   

Oatmeal contains more soluble fiber than whole wheat, rice or corn. 

Vitamins, minerals and antioxidants are also found in oatmeal.  It’s an excellent source of protein, complex carbohydrates and iron. 

The soluble fiber and other nutrients found in oatmeal may also reduce the risk for certain cancers. 

Oatmeal is an excellent choice for a breakfast food because it is quick and convenient.

Oatmeal can also be eaten as a nutritious low calorie snack.  This is a snack that could also be eaten at night because it doesn’t spike blood sugar levels.  There are many healthy ingredients you can add to oatmeal to spice it up a bit, since it does have a natural bland flavor.  Add fresh or frozen fruit, nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and yogurt to name a few.  Avoid adding sugar, whip cream, ice cream, marshmallows, chocolate chips or other candies.  Pass on the butter and brown sugar and substitute with agave nectar or cinnamon instead. 

You can also add uncooked oatmeal to recipes that call for bread crumbs.  We put oatmeal in our turkey meat loaf and it is delicious! 

As you can see oatmeal is a food that should be added to your daily diet to live healthy!

Live Healthy,

Cheryl and Tennille
