This was shared by another Ambassador and is very informative. Here is an interesting comparison! Thank you Dana Arcuri for sharing your personal thoughts! I am not trying to slam any of our competitors, just some info that you might want when choosing a program to help you get healthy. Wondering whats the difference between Advocare Spark versus Plexus Slim? Read on! 1) Advocare Spark contains Sucralose, which is an artificial sweetener (Splenda) linked to cancer, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and so much more. Plexus Slim contains Stevia, which is a plant-based sweetener formulated by doctors to balance blood sugar, cholesterol, and lipid levels. 2) Sucralose is often derived from Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO), but Plexus Slim is FREE of GMO, along with gluten and MSG. 3) The Advocare Spark label states, “KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN”, which makes me wonder why its not safe for children. Plexus Slim is safe for all age groups. 4) The Advocare Spark label states, “PREGNANT OR NURSING WOMEN SHOULD CONSULT A HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL PRIOR TO USE.” Plexus Slim is safe for pregnant and nursing moms. We have plenty of awesome testimonials to prove the health benefits!!! 5) CALORIES: The Plexus Slim drink mix makes 12–20 oz of drink per pouch and contains 10 calories. The Spark product makes 8 oz of drink per pouch and contains 45 calories. 6) CARBS: The Plexus Slim drink has 3 grams of carbs, while the Spark drink has 11 grams. 7) ENERGY DRINK VERSUS HEALTH DRINK: Another big difference with Spark and Plexus Slim is that they are actually two different categories of products. Spark is marketed as an energy drink, while Plexus Slim (pink drink) is used for overall health. Plexus Slim curbs your appetite, regulates your blood sugars, lipids and liver so that you don’t overeat or feel like you’re hungry all of the time. Plexus Slim has fiber in it that helps you feel full. The original purpose of Plexus Slim was for Type II diabetics to stabilize blood sugars, but an added bonus was that people lost weight so the doctors decided it to market it that way. 8) PERSONAL RESULTS FROM DANA USING BOTH PRODUCTS: Several years ago, I started drinking the Advocare Spark. From my own personal experience of consistently drinking Spark for over 10 months, my ONLY benefit was a boost of energy. I NEVER had curbed cravings, less Fibromyalgia pain, decreased ADHD symptoms, better sleep, or weight loss. As for Plexus Slim, today is my 9th month anniversary in which my Fibromyalgia and herniated disc pain is dramatically reduced. I have brighter moods, better focus, natural energy, less ADHD symptoms, I shed 4 sizes, and I successfully lost 19 lbs & 29 inches WITHOUT major exercise or changes in my diet. Plexus products do what they say they will do!!!
