Recommended Supplements

One thing I've learned is you cannot supplement a bad diet. However, in a world where our soils are stripped of nutrients and it's hard to meet all your needs, even if you're eating your best, there are a handful of professional grade supplements I recommend to almost everyone. The following supplements will help support the body through every day stress and ensure that you are getting all the nutrients you need to live with vitality.

As a nutrition professional, I can give you access to these supplements at a discounted rate. If any of these resonate with you or seem like a good fit into your lifestyle, please reach out to me.

Omega-3

Omega-3's help support the body with their anti-inflammatory properties. In a past life we use to eat a ratio of omega-6s and omega-3s 2:1, which is ideal. Today we are eating them around a ratio of 20:1. The balance of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids is important for brain development and reducing the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and arthritis. The body needs both omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids to react to inflammation, but an imbalance can lead to the development of chronic diseases.

In addition to reducing your intake of seed oils which are loaded with omega-6, supplementing can even this ratio. This particular supplement also has CoQ10, a powerful anti-oxidant.

High Quality Multi-Vitamin

Due to over worked and over-tilled soil, we've lost a lot of the essential nutrients that work their way up into the food we eat. A lot of foods, even organic, are lacking in nutrients compared to 100 years ago. Having a high quality multi vitamin is a great way to ensure you are getting all your vitamins and minerals.

Vitamin D3/K2

We are all pretty deficient in Vitamin D. We spend most of our lives inside, and many of us never expose ourselves to the sun without sunscreen long enough to synthesize enough vitamin D naturally. Calcium homeostasis in the body requires both D & K, so this supplement containing both is the best option.

Glutathione

Glutathione is an antioxidant and peptide that's important for many bodily functions, including:

Cellular events: Regulates cellular events, including gene expression, DNA and protein synthesis, and cell proliferation

Insulin sensitivity: Improves insulin sensitivity, which can help prevent or manage type 2 diabetes

Cell repair: Helps repair cells damaged by pollution, stress, and other harmful influences
Detoxification: Helps detoxify chemicals, including pollutants, drugs, and some chemicals the body creates naturally
Nutrient metabolism: Plays a role in nutrient metabolism

Glutathione levels decrease with age. Low levels have been associated with an increased risk of certain conditions, including: Cancer, Type 2 diabetes, Hepatitis, and Parkinson's disease.

Protein Powder

Protein is a vital part of a healthy diet and is important for many functions in the body, including:

Immune system: Protein helps the body fight off infections and illnesses by producing antibodies.

Muscle health: Protein helps maintain muscle strength and reduce age-related muscle deterioration.

Heart health: Eating healthy protein instead of carbohydrates can help lower blood pressure and harmful cholesterol.

Building and repairing: Protein is a key component of cells, bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, hair, and nails. The body uses protein to repair and build tissue, and to create new cells.
Energy: Protein is a major source of energy for the body.
Hormones and enzymes: The body uses protein to make hormones and enzymes, which are responsible for many key functions. For example, enzymes help digest food and create new cells and chemicals.

Creatine

Creatine isn't just for the gym bros! Creatine helps with not only athletic performance, but also brain and neural health as well. It is one of the safest and cleanest supplements on the market as well.
