We share this week's favorite recipe, podcast, blog article, the Deal of the Week & more!
Greetings Friend,
This week, I thought we'd start out with some fun facts about the human body -- just in case you need some icebreakers for upcoming holiday parties. Did you know…
…There are more than 100,000 miles of blood vessels in your body.
…You are taller in the morning than you are at night.
…Your ears and your nose never stop growing.
…Women's brains actually shrink during pregnancy -- "pregnancy brain" is a real deal.
…While awake, your brain produces enough electricity to light a lightbulb.
…Humans shed about 600,000 particles of skin every hour.
And now, the rest of the story. Enjoy!

Tip: With a robust dose of health-boosting compounds -- like polyphenols, flavonoids and theobromine -- dark chocolate can support heart health, circulation, healthy blood pressure, weight management, mood, gut health and more. The key is choosing dark chocolate that's high in cacao (70 - 85% or higher), low in sugar (< 8g per ounce), and of course, not going overboard.
Impact: Did you ever "burn" a CD for a friend or significant other when you were younger? When is the last time you did that for someone you cared about? These days, it's easier than ever (no burning or CD required), so make that special someone a playlist to let 'em know you care.
1. Favorite Recipe We Tried This Week
I don't know if you've noticed, but plant-based diets have experienced a surge in popularity. On the surface, I think it's a good thing, especially when people trade in ultra-processed foods for whole, minimally-processed ones. The problem is that a glaring side effect of the veganplosion is that the market is being flooded with heavily processed foods that fit the "plant-based" criteria. (French fries and beer are vegan, after all.) The good news is that Coach Cristina came up with her own impossibly tasty vegan burger recipe that beats the pants off those new-wave, over-priced plant-based burgers, which in our opinion, leave a lot to be desired.

Here's what Laura B. had to say about Joint 33X, our next-generation joint health formula:
"I have been using Joint 33X for three weeks. I noticed a remarkable improvement right away. Joint 33X has allowed me more mobility. I am confident that with continued use of Joint 33X , I will be able to look forward to a better quality of life.

Thanks, BioTrust, for all of your quality products. I've gotten my life back with Joint 33X. I'm a BioTrust customer for life."
4. Most Popular Blog Article This Week
Pop quiz! When it comes to breakfast foods, what's better: oatmeal or eggs? Is trusty, old-fashioned oatmeal really the breakfast of champions? Or, is the best way to start your day with the long- and wrongly-maligned eggs? Such a fun question, and man, have the fangs come out in retaliation to our shocking answer. Take a look for yourself to see what's the "right" choice. We think you'll be surprised!
5. Transformation Challenge Update
Our current 12-Week Shape-Up Challenge is now more than 75% complete -- we're coming down the stretch! After 9 weeks, our group has lost an impressive 1,035 pounds. That's the equivalent of a crocodile, which isn't to be confused with an alligator. According to Coach Cristina, it's easy to tell the two apart. You will see one in a while, and the other, you will see later. :)
As we wind down the competition, we invite you to join us at our VIP Community where you can also get access to the same unrivaled social support, mission-critical accountability and unparalleled coaching that have been linchpins behind the thousands and thousands of pounds dropped -- and left behind -- by our VIPers.
6. Make-A-Wish®
Angelina was born with a rare heart condition that left her with only half of her heart. What pushed her to get through the difficult times was wishing to have her own royal ball. When she turned 11, her wish finally came true.
She was greeted at her royal ball by 100 cheering guests, including her physician, Blaine John, MD, who referred her for a wish. Dr. John and Angelina formed a special bond during the time Angelina spent in the hospital, and he watched her grow into a resilient young girl.
"I wouldn't have missed Angelina's big day for anything," Dr. John said. "While Angelina is the bravest girl I know, coming to her checkups used to bring back bad memories. Since Angelina's wish, Angelina and her family have these incredibly happy memories to get them through the tough times."
Angelina was able to spend the time dancing and making memories with her friends and family. "It's been a hard road, so to have the glimmer of joy, to see the joy on her face because of everything that Make-A-Wish has done, it just fills my heart with joy," her dad said.
Thank you so much for supporting our partnership with Make-A-Wish. Together, we have donated over $1.8 million and counting, helping grant more than 204 wishes for children with life-threatening medical conditions.
