A bit of exciting news I wanted to share with you! I have been harrassing the guys over at Prograde for ages to get it shipped over here to the UK, and finally, thanks to me and plenty of others, they have finally crumbled and are now sharing their amazing products with us non-US citizens!
Everyone I know speaks so highly of Prograde, and these are people like Isabel De Los Rios and Mike Geary who are famed for their high standards when it comes to food - it all must be organic, natural and impeccably sourced, as well as functional and nutritious. Prograde delivers on all of these fronts, and I am excited to be able to get my hands on them on a regular basis (they even autoship to save the hassle of re-ordering - sweet!!)
And the best thing about it, is that they are having a massive sale to celebrate!!
10.9% off everything!!
Yes, that's 10.9 as in January of 2009 ;-)
The offer is running from Thursday, January 8th until Thursday, January 15th at 11:59pm EST.
The 10.9% off will be applicable to SmartShip orders. But it only applies to that first purchase. Not ongoing.
The coupon code you enter at checkout is: 012009

You don't want to miss this one, well I don't anyway! Some product feedback below:
VGF+25...Highly recommended! I haven't yet used it, but users report huge improvements in skin, nails and moods. The premise is that you that you can get the nutrients of 25 whole vegetables, greens and fruits in a capsule, and while I do not recommend relying on this (you still need 10 portions of veg / fruit a day!) this does mean you get more than just 'insurance'. You get optimal health. And you make sure you are building the best you possible!
There are specific formulas for men and women and the formula uses whole foods. It is NOT a synthetic vitamin created in some lab somewhere, that just gets flushed down the toilet as your body can't actually assimilate the contents (as with most vitamin supplements).

Prograde Workout...Tastes great simply mixed with just water. Perfect for after your workout to giving you the scientifically proven dosage (and ratio) of carbs to protein for maximum recovery, so you are ready to hit the kettlebells hard again sooner (thus burning more fat!). Only one falvour, which is a bit of a downside, but for a post workout shake that doesn't personally bother me too much, as it tastes great and does the job!
Prograde Lean...The chocolate flavour is lush! Highly regarded as one of the best tasting meal replacement shakes - my only criticism is there really should be more flavours. I like vanilla in my protein porridge and pancakes, as well as many recipes, and like a twsit of banana in my shakes, so until they get onto that I won't be replacing my whole stash with Prograde Lean, but as soon as they do, I will!
Now, I've left this one till last as regretably they cannot yet ship it to the UK!! Disaster for me, but all you US / Canadians out there can still benefit. I must admit I am GUTTED though...
Prograde Cravers... I'd get these simply for the taste - loads nicer than any other snack bar and better for you too! All organic ingredients, can get Spirulina, Almond, or the clincher, Peanut Butter! Great when you are craving chocolate (or peanut butter) or just as a healthy snack when you're on the move. I must admit, though, organic, nutritiousness and healthiness aside, the thing I am most excited about it the deliciousness factor, in particular the peanut butter variety!
As I am on a bit of a mission at the moment (as are many of the KettleBelles at Mission Slim Possible) there is no room for the added calories of peanut butter in my diet (healthy fat it may be, but I can't rely on myself to execute moderation when a tub of the stuff is around and it don't take much to kill a calorie deficit, I can assure you!). Prograde to the rescue: Prograde Cravers deliver PB and chocolate (dark, organic of course) in one 180 calorie hit! I can defintely factor that into the equation and know I'm actually doing myself good in the process - a double winner! Anyone up for petitioning the Prograde team to figure out a way of getting these over to the UK?!
There are loads more products available, just have a browse at the store! And let me know if you want me to review anything else, and let me know how you go with the products - the guys would love to hear your feedback!

Where did you buy the Prograde cravers from in the UK.
They are still not shipping them from the US at the moment.
Hey Helen
The Cravers don't ship to the UK - had some from a US friend and thought shippng to the UK included cravers but it doesn't! Very annoying!
There are some UK based 'healthy' chocolate options though - can hunt out some links for you.
Has anyone ordered to the UK yet from Prograde? I'm worried about extra charges with customs etc...anyone?
Yeah those peanut butter cravers are awesome! Kinda easy to eat more than one if you're not careful. lol
