Taking supplements
There’s a reason I say, “food is your foundation”.
But even the best approach can’t fill every gap. Food just doesn't have the same nutrient density it did even just a few decades ago. It's picked greener, travels farther and is treated with more chemicals than ever before.
In fact, those four to six servings of fruits and veggies per day we were told we needed 25 years ago, now needs to more than double to get the same nutritional value. Add to that your body is inflamed, depleted and dealing with hormonal shifts that change how nutrients are absorbed, used, and stored, you've got gaps that need to be filled.
Supplements aren’t magic, and there's never going to be one magic pill, shot or patch that'll solve all your issues. That being said, the right products, together with the right approach to health can come alongside to help fill those gaps and optimize your results. Whether you’re navigating the challenges of in midlife, or managing inflammation and struggling to show up fully for your life, doing the minimum just isn’t enough anymore.
Here’s the thing most women don’t realize: inflammation increases your nutritional needs. It damages the gut lining, which means fewer nutrients get absorbed from the food you eat. It disrupts your microbiome, where many of your hormones and neurotransmitters are produced. It increases oxidative stress, which depletes your stores of key antioxidants and minerals. In short, inflammation makes everything an uphill battle and harder to get what you need from food alone.
