A Two-Step Daily Protocol
Amata Lucè Reset
Steady your blood sugar, quiet the cravings, and let your skin reflect what is finally settled underneath.
BEFORE
AFTERWhy a Two-Step Routine Works
Most plans ask you to restrict. This one asks you to sequence. A morning ritual and one pre-meal step change how your body handles the food you were already going to eat.
Steadier Glucose
A fiber matrix taken before your largest meal slows how quickly carbohydrates enter the bloodstream, so the post-meal curve is gentler.
Quieter Cravings
When glucose stops swinging, the 4 p.m. search for something sweet tends to fade on its own. No willpower required.
Calmer Midsection
Better digestion and less inflammation often show up first as reduced bloat and clothes that sit differently.
Even Energy
Yerba maté in the morning supports focus and mood without the spike-and-crash of a second or third coffee.
Skin That Follows
Metabolic health is visible. Less puffiness, less reactivity, and a clearer surface are common downstream effects.
Genuinely Simple
One drink in the morning. One before your main meal. That is the entire protocol.
A Note from Gloria
I came to this the way I come to everything in my treatment room—skeptically, and with a clinician's eye. As both a nurse and esthetician, I've spent years watching what happens when someone's body is out of balance. Skin that won't calm down. Inflammation that no cream can resolve. Because the problem was never on the surface.
Blood sugar that swings all day shows up everywhere—in a face, in energy levels, in how your body moves through a 12-hour shift. It shows up as puffiness, reactivity, dullness, pain. So I stopped treating these things in isolation and started paying attention to what happens between meals, to what your metabolism is actually doing.
When menopause hit me, I finally understood from the inside what I'd been observing for years. My body was no longer cooperating. The fatigue. The inflammation. The weight that wouldn't budge. The brain fog. And I realized—this wasn't a skin problem, and it wasn't a willpower problem. It was metabolic.
What changed for me was not a diet. It was two small, repeatable steps that made everything else easier to sustain—and the results showed up exactly as I would expect them to. Energy first, then waistline, then skin. Because when your metabolism shifts, everything shifts.
That's what I want you to understand: this works from the inside out.
A Real Reset
I'm a registered nurse with 16 years of experience, which means I've learned to notice what actually works—in my patients, in data, and in my own body. I'm skeptical of quick fixes. I look for proof.
As a nurse, I also understand menopause. I'd watched it unfold in countless patients, and then it was happening to me. The fatigue that no amount of sleep fixed. The inflammation everywhere—joints, skin, my whole body felt inflamed. Brain fog so thick I'd lose my train of thought mid-sentence. The weight creeping on no matter what I did. Night sweats. Mood swings. My body felt like it was working against me.
I started this system. I paid attention to everything: how I felt hour to hour, what the data showed, what my body was telling me. Within weeks, the change was unmistakable.
My mood lifted. The inflammation calmed. My energy stayed steady all day—no more afternoon crash. The cravings quieted. I dropped 20 pounds. And I stopped needing that late-afternoon nap to get through the day.
The labs matched how I felt. My inflammation markers dropped. That's when I knew this wasn't another diet; it was a smarter way to work with your metabolism, especially during menopause when everything shifts.
But here's what mattered most: after 12-hour shifts at the hospital, I have no pain. My body recovers now. That never used to happen. I'd come home aching, exhausted, needing days to bounce back. Now I finish a shift and I feel capable.
My overall wellness improved in ways I can measure and in ways I can feel. My mind is clear. I feel like myself again.
And I'm watching this work for family members in my life too. They're experiencing the same shifts—the energy, the clarity, the physical changes.
The routine is simple: Unimate in the morning (and again before/after lunch), then Balance before dinner to steady glucose and keep cravings in check. If you can drink water, you can do this.
Step 1 — Unimate
Super-powered yerba mate for clean energy, elevated mood, fewer cravings, and laser focus so you can cruise through the day without snacking. This is where it starts.
Step 2 — Balance
A unique fiber matrix that slows carb absorption, levels glucose and insulin, supports gut health, and keeps you satisfied longer. This is where the real metabolic shift happens.
The Results
Better energy. Clearer skin. Smaller waistlines. Improved labs. And the confidence that comes from feeling in control again. Plus, you're not doing this alone—you get my coaching and community support every step of the way.
90-Day Bloodwork Guarantee
If your labs don't improve in 90 days, you get your money back. Zero risk. All upside.
If you're in the thick of menopause and exhausted by what it's doing to you—if you're ready to feel strong again, clear-headed, actually recovered—I'll walk you through this step-by-step. I know how.
The Protocol
Step One — Morning
Unimate
A concentrated yerba maté drink taken first thing. It supports clean focus and steady mood, and makes stretching the gap to your first meal feel effortless rather than punishing.
Step Two — Before Your Largest Meal
Balance
A multi-source fiber blend that forms a gel in the stomach, slowing carbohydrate absorption, softening the glucose curve, and feeding the gut bacteria that influence digestion and mood.

A Day on the System
How the two steps fit into a normal day, alongside a 16:8 eating window.
Clock shown on a 24-hour dial. Midnight at the top.
The schedule, in words
8:00 PM – 12:00 PM
16-hour fasting window
You stop eating after dinner and open the next window at midday. Most of it happens while you sleep.
12:00 AM
Blood sugar normalizes
With no food coming in, insulin settles and blood sugar returns to baseline.
4:00 AM
Digestive system resets
The gut gets a long stretch without work — the repair window most days never allow.
8:00 AM
Unimate
Your morning yerba maté. Clean focus and steady mood, and the fast becomes easy to extend.
12:00 PM – 8:00 PM
8-hour eating window
You eat normally inside these eight hours. No counting, no restriction lists.
12:00 PM
Unimate (second serving)
A second Unimate around lunch carries focus through the afternoon dip.
Before dinner
Balance
Taken before your largest meal, so carbohydrates absorb more slowly and the post-meal curve stays gentle.
