Look who we caught in Yogurtini! – Beauty Editor and Writer Luann Petix

We love catching “the it girls” in Yogurtini. The ga-ga gorgeous Luann Petix was recently seen in Yogurtini so we had to ask her for a quick blog interview!

If you don’t know who Luann is, she is the founding editor in chief of DAMSEL MAGAZINE, had a long time career at Quiksilver and is currently the owner of Beau Branding and recently covered in this month’s issue of Coastal Living “Surfer Chicks” for all her summer beauty tips.

Natasha: Luann, your shots in Coastal Living are gorgeous. It looks like you are having a fun summer! Obviously you gave readers your summer beauty tips but we want to talk more about what you do to stay in shape and what’s on your daily menu!

Luann:: Thanks, the shoot was so fun and I love Coastal Living. Summer is my favorite time of year. Love the beach, but I love the heat, love Arizona, I go to Lake Havasu 10 times every summer, and I love Yogurtini, of course.

Natasha: How often do you eat frozen yogurt?

Luann: Every day, it’s a must.

Natasha: So, we have to ask, what Yogurtini concoction are you eating now?

Luann: Sometimes I like the plain boring stuff like Vanilla and Chocolate and I don’t feel the guilt because it is all non-fat….but when I am getting crazy I will do Peanut Butter and Cheesecake yogurt and pile on lots of brownie bits and cheesecake bites!

Natasha: Love it! Cheesecake is my favorite too but I cover it with graham crackers and even ground up girl scout thin mints. You do need to seriously try our new Acai’. OK, how do you stay in shape?? You were looking good in your L*Space fringe suit in Coastal Living!

Luann: To help me unwind I need a good cardio. I love spin class http://www.bike2thebeat.com. There is nothing like this style of workout. If I can’t make it to spin, I will jump on a treadmill and go for a run. The treadmill is easier than running outdoors, don’t know why?

Natasha: What is it about yogurt that you love so much and why we catch you in here all the time?

Luann: Well I love the variety at Yogurtini, you can’t get bored with this many toppings…but I like the probiotic aspects. Hey, we all want keep our digestion healthy! When I can’t get a yogurt, I love this amazing drink called PRE, same probiotic concept and you can get it at Whole Foods I keep it stocked in the fridge along with a take home from Yogurtini of course!

Natasha: OK, so since i have THE “Beauty Go To” I have to ask, what is your favorite trend for summer?

Luann: For me summer is always about bikini’s (I love L*Space Styles), lightweight strapless dresses and flip flops. I’m obsessed with my Clinique Superbalm moisturizing lip gloss in currant.

Natasha: Thanks Luann, next Yogurtini is on me!

Friend of Yogurtini Self Serve and Editor of Ms. Fitness Magazine Weighs in on Yogurt!

Greta Blackburn is the founding editor of Ms. Fitness Magazine, celebrity trainer and also the founder of FitCamp. (If you haven’t gone to her FitCamp in Malibu, make the trip!)

I decided to ask her what her health take is on YOGURT! She shed some light on a few things even we didn’t know!

And remember, Yogurtini ALWAYS offers one no sugar added and one non-dairy flavor!

Greta Blackburn:

Did you know that your body contains approximately 400 types of bacteria weighing approximately 3½ pounds?

Sounds nasty, I know, but most of these bacteria live in your gastrointestinal system where they play the vital role of metabolizing the food you eat. Less than one percent are pathogenic or toxic.

My good health, and yours too, depends upon maintaining a proper balance between various groups of bacteria, what scientists call “intestinal flora.”

Stress, the onset of a cold or flu, taking antibiotics, alcohol, bad food and even lack of sleep can throw off this balance. Even harmful things in the environment, such as mercury or lead, can do the same thing.

For me, eating yogurt is the best way to maintain this crucial balance. The reason, of course, and I know you all probably know this, is because yogurt contains “friendly bacteria” called “probiotics.”

When you eat yogurt on a regular basis the first thing you’ll notice is just how “regular” you are. It’s amazing really, but I won’t bore you with the details.

For me though, it’s much much more. The probiotics in yogurt boost my immune system which I think is the reason I hardly ever get a cold.

Scientists tell me there are even more benefits including increased lactose tolerance, better resistance to infections, improved HDL/LDL cholesterol ratio, anti-carcinogenic properties, inhibition of food pathogens, aid to liver function, and a hedge against osteoporosis.

But, for me, here’s the clincher. Yogurt prevents bad breath!
