Health Food

We have just returned from yet another Natural Food Show with a few new products for your convenience!
We work very hard to bring you the healthiest minimally processed and convenient foods on the market.  As a nutritionist I diligently read all the labels to make sure the ingredients are as clean as possible.  I also speak with the manufacture to understand where the food is sourced from.
We try and choose our food products from local & honest companies.  Most of our products are gluten free, corn free, contain minimal to no dairy and minimal cane sugar.
We have done the work for you!  No longer will you have to spend hours reading labels at the grocery store.
We appreciate your support of our wellness efforts.  Contact me if you would like us to carry something specific! Nutrition@TeamFitness.INFO

Be Well,

Testimonial to King 5- Thanks Tonya!

I wanted to tell you about Team Fitness in Lake Stevens. It is all inclusive with physical therapy (Reaction Therapy), Nutrition (Well Balanced Nutrition & More), great personal trainersswimming lessons for toddlers & kids, basketball court, daycare, kids athletics, hot yoga, cyclling, intensity, weight classes, a salon, a chiropractor and more.
 
The reason I bring them up, is many of us have struggled to loose weight, feel better, deal with allergies or GI issues and other health problems. I was one of the many that have walked through their doors. This was different though. The owner automatically gave me free direction and advise on who to speak with about what, from weight, being sick, knee issues, foot injuries, eating right etc. I met with every proffessional in the building within 1/2 a day for consultations, took their advice, started on new supplements, committed to a a month of detoxing with an entire group (which we lost 270ibs total as a group), was diagnosed intolerances and how to catch them (such as dairy, wheat, gluten, etc). How to manage my workouts, stretching,injury prevention. All while they have a daycare so I can really focus on my self.
 
I am not the only story from this gym, there are so many it's almost unbelievable. I went for  a physical not 3 months ago and my doctor wanted the information as she was so impressed with the turn around in my GI problems, how I looked, rested, good attitude, weight loss, and best part everyblood test she performed was within ideal ranges.
 
Please check out this organization as I feel they really go out of their way to make success a part of everyone's life who walks through their doors (if they want it).


Thank you
Yours Truly,
