Every once in a while I share the list of what supplements I'm taking because I think it's really interesting to find out what works for people and it seems all of my friends have health secrets we'd all benefit from learning - but who stands around listing their favorite vitamins? Besides me, I mean.
My post today isn't an endorsement of any health treatment - we are each responsible for doing our own research on suggested products and evaluating for ourselves whether or not it's worth a try or if it applies to our personal health needs.
That said, I'd love to hear any comments, feedback, wisdom, cautionary tales, etc...
So here is the list of things I currently choose not to live without:
maca - energy - fountain of youth, people, fountain of youth
Raw Kombucha - enzymes - I needed these my whole life and only stumbled upon recently.
dhq (Siberian Larch tree extract) - stamina, energy
reishi mushrooms - Google the benefits - too many to go into here.
New Chapter Every Woman II - best all around multi-vitamin I’ve found. Miles ahead of the others.
resveratrol - reverses cellular aging
cat’s claw - improves dna copying
molasses (organic, unsulphured blackstrap molasses) - iron, magnesium, potassium - best source of iron I have ever used, including Floradix.
probiotics - gut bacteria
copper (chelated) - we don't get enough of most minerals
bamboo extract - for skin and hair
topical magnesium oil - for cell function - nothing short of a miracle!
Himalayan pink salt
oregano oil (wildcrafted, in olive oil)
chia seeds
raw cacao
raw, organic coconut oil - how did I ever live without this?
goji berries - superfood and great snack
astaxanthan - a colorful, fat-soluble pigment found in microalgae, yeast, salmon, trout, krill, shrimp, crayfish, crustaceans, and the feathers of some birds. It’s harvested from the sea, and sold in capsules. One of the richest sources of antioxidants available, it gives noticeable protection from the sun after a couple of months of regular use.
So happy researching to you, and I hope you'll drop a comment here if you have a health secret you'd like to pass on :)
