About me
tHello!
this is Danilo "Danny" Castello, independent Herbalife distributor since 2005.
I am 50 years old, married to Maria Ida and with 1 newly born child Alessandro. My hobbies are tennis and going to the gym.
I had struggled with my weight for many years, I remember I joined one of those weekly weight loss classes 7 times in my life but without long term results. I lost some weight and then I regained after a few months.
In 1999 I started working in a call centre. The job was very stressful and the food at the company canteen was too rich in fats and sugars so I gained weight. I was dissatisfied with my energy level and body, so I decided to start the herbalife healthy breakfast program first and then the weight management program.
After 2 weeks on the program and with the help of my Herbalife Wellness Coach, I felt much more energetic. And in a few months I lost 2 stones!
Then my coach invited me to take a look at an online Herbalife meeting, to know more about the company, the products and.....the business opportunity.
It was at that event that I discovered my way out of a corporate job, a classic 9-5 that i didnt enjoy anymore. I could not take anymore of my colleagues and boss. I didnt want anymore people tell me what to do of my life.
So I started my own business part time with Herbalife in 2005 because I was convinced the Herbalife nutrition was great and shortly after I was able to resign from my job and live the free life I wanted.
Which is why I call it "freedom business"
Nowadays I have an international business with Herbalife, with customers in the UK, Ireland, US and Italy: I love helping people achieving their health goals and building their "freedom business" part time, like I did.
Because I have been helping so many people all over the world to improve their health and nutrition, I have been recognised many times on stage and I was even able to meet in person the father of personal development, Jim Rohn.
I still remember the first time I attended his trainings on personal growth. He opened with "for things to change, YOU have to change. For things to get better, YOU have to get better".
This is me with the great Jim Rohn, who applaudes me for helping people.
What an incredible day for me!
Thanks to Herbalife, I have become extremely interested in human nutrition and in longevity and heart protection, I even had the chance to meet in person the man who won the Nobel Prize in Medicine and created Herbalife Niteworks, a product specific for heart health.
Here I am in 2010 with Professor Louis Ignarro (red tie), who won the Nobel prize:
So over the years I have attended countless health and nutrition conferences and classes with Herbalife and I have learnt so much in terms of healthy habits.
And I want to pass all I know to you, so that you and your family can acquire some simple yet extremely powerful tiny daily healthy habits.
My family and I hate diets. We love a healthy active lifestyle where we combine the Mediterranean diet with the Herbalife nutritition.
This is the nutritional routine of our family:
1. BREAKFAST
We start our day with a hot cup of thermo tea (usually lemon flavour) with aloe vera juice drink (mango flavour), then I read some online newspapers and do our online 7 minute morning activation program (I have a facebook group where I run the program). Then my digestive system activates and I go to the loo (I have had serious constipation issue and even did an haemorroids surgical operation so having taught my body how to be healthy is extremely important to me).
After that, I prepare a shake both for me and my wife Maria Ida (we love the Formula 1 Caffe Latte flavour, 3 scoops for me, 2 for her) which we prepare with the Protein Drink Mix (2 scoops each) which helps us to get enough proteins to kick start our day. We also add to our shake Microbiotics Max (with probiotic and prebiotics fibers, so important for a healthy digestive system) and the Beta Heart (important to keep our cholesterol levels low). We blend everything in just water (no milk, no lactose for us).
Then we get our healthy tablets: Formula 2 Mineral and Vitamin Complex (Man for me, Woman for her), Herbalifeline Max with omega 3 fatty acids, Active Mind and also 1 PhytoComplete for me only. I know all these tablets sound like a lot, but we truly believe and want to invest in our longevity, and it works (you will see below some recent photos of us, I am 51, she is 41 (2024)..
2. SNACK
Mid morning we have a healthy snack (I love the BBQ protein chips, she loves the Herbalife Snack Bar Lemon flavour).
3. LUNCH
For lunch, we usually have a healthy meal (I run a facebook live every day with some examples of what to cook and eat), followed by the healthy tablets mentioned above.
4. SNACK
Mid afternoon we both have a second shake, prepared with Formula 1 chocolate flavor for her and banana cream for me, blended with water and ice.
5. DINNER
For dinner, we prepare a healthy meal (mostly vegetables and lean proteins), no carbs in the evening, followed again by our healthy tablets mentioned above. During the cold months we usually have also soups prepared with the delicious formula 1 gourmet (mushrooms flavour).
In terms of physical activity, I love tennis and gymm she loves cycling.
Here are some photos of us. I am 51 she is 41 (2024). Health and longevity are very important to us. And everything starts with proper nutrition and healthy habits:
..and then...our little angel came into our life!
So, as you can see, we are a healthy family and, if you allow me, I can be your own Personal Wellness Coach, for your and your family.
I love helping people to acquire healthy habits, as we do it for ourselves first.
I have always enjoyed talking to people from all over the world and that's why I have decided to create this online shop for the UK.
I want to help as many people as possible in the UK both to reach their wellness goals and but also to start a part time business under my supervision, so that together we can help as many people as we can to understand nutrition and live their best life.
I have 19 years of international experience and I know I can help you.
What is your goal in life?
Remember what Jim Rohn taught me:
For things to change, YOU have to change.
For things to get better, YOU have to get better.
