Convenience, Hollingsworth said, does not always mean having to sacrifice your health. Neighborhood Nutrition shakes are a breakfast or lunch replacement made from Herbalife products designed for people who want a quick, convenient meal option with all the health benefits. Starting at just 200 calories, each meal replacement shake contains 24 grams of protein along with 21 vitamins and minerals.
Whether you’re a sucker for chocolate, classic vanilla lover, peanut butter admirer, or a fruity fanatic, Neighborhood Nutrition offers a wide variety of flavors that are sure to make you wonder how healthy can taste so good. Signature favorites include Peanut Butter Oreo and Monster Cookie.
“There is a convenient way to live a healthier and active lifestyle,” Hollingsworth said.
Originally from Eau Claire, Hollingsworth strives to set an example for the community she grew up in. With the nutrition club’s first birthday just around the corner, Hollingsworth said it was tough to open her business, but she's excited for the future.
“I opened in the middle of a pandemic,” Hollingsworth said. “It was quite the challenge, but I made it work.”
Hollingsworth, who was furloughed at the beginning of the pandemic from her job in Minneapolis, took this unexpected opportunity to open her own business. Now, Hollingsowrth enjoys working for herself.
“I have the freedom to run a business the way I envision it to be run," she said, "and an opportunity to meet the Eau Claire community."
In addition to shakes, Neighborhood Nutrition offers energizing teas and iced coffee shakes. The most popular tea, The Mermaid, is a raspberry, tropical fruit, strawberry lemonade, blue-blast explosion! For coffee enthusiasts, secure an iced coffee shake full of 75 milligrams of coffee and proteins, vitamins, and minerals.
