Supplements

Ideally we would get all of our nutrition through the healthy foods we eat, however there are many factors that cause us to need to supplement. Factors like:

*Cooking our food (which kills the enzymes, which makes our pancreas borrow enzymes from other places like our liver).

*Soils stripped of nutrients.

*Pesticides and chemical toxins used in farming.

*Chemical toxins in our homes (cleaning supplies, chemicals on fabrics, paints, pesticides, etc.) Note: The World Health Organization attributes "environmental toxins" as the number one leading cause of cancer and illness.

*Taking anti-biotics (kills our gut flora)

*And more!

Let us present to you the "Table of Health". A table has 4 legs and there are 4 basic things everybody needs to maintain good health. If you don't get enough in your diet, you need to consider supplementing. In the environment we live in (with mineral poor soils, pesticides, GMO's, and environmental toxins) our bodies typically need a lot of extra support in these 4 areas to stay healthy. The four foundational supplements are:

A fantastic anti-oxidant is needed to clean out the "rust" and oxidation that is happening daily with the daily metabolic processes of our cells. Flax Hull Lignans are THE BEST anti-oxidant you can find, hands down! These also provide Omega 3s' (see below).

A good enzyme is needed if you eat cooked food. Vegetables, fruit and raw meat come with their own enzymes, but once you heat any of them, the enzymes are dead. A 70 year old has half the amount of enzymes of a 25 year old. Enzymes are needed for metabolic processes, and when you eat cooked food that doesn't have the enzymes present, your pancreas borrows enzymes from other places in your body to break the food down into usable energy. Taking a daily enzyme keeps that borrowing from happening and assists in the digestion of foods. Enzymes are completely different than probiotics.We love Essentialzyme enzymes because it is time released and you only have to take one a day.

ProBiotics are also needed if you eat cooked food and if you have an unbalanced diet. Got skin problems? They may be connected to your gut health. If you have recently had an anti-biotic, you also have wiped out your gut bacteria. The gut is considered the "2nd Brain" and it is so important for overall health to have healthy gut bacteria. Life 9 Priobiotic is our favorite (with 27 billion active cultures) and will replenish and feed your gut and help support healthy skin and other body systems.CLICK HERE FOR LIFE 9

The fourth leg of our "table of health" is to have a good source of Omega 3 Fatty Acids. We offer two sources: The Flax Hull Lignans are 8% oil and fat, and 55% of that fat is ALA (Alpha-Linolenic Acid). If a person were to consume 2.5g (3/4 tsp) daily of FHL, they would be consuming approximately 110mg ALA. The National Academy of Sciences, USA has given daily recommendations of ALA to be 110mg for women and 160mg for men. 1 scoop of FHL give approximately 220 mg of ALA. ALA is a precursor that converts in your gut (as long as your gut is healthy!) to DHA and EPA as you need it.

But many people have trouble converting ALA and need to take a good fish oil supplement. For you, we offer an amazing fish oil supplement called Omegagize. OmegaGize³™ combines the power of three core daily supplements-omega 3 fatty acids, vitamin D-3, and CoQ10 (ubiquinone). These supplements combine with our proprietary enhancement essential oil blend to create an omega-3, DHA-rich fish oil supplement that may support general wellness. Used daily these ingredients work synergistically to support normal brain, heart, eye, and joint health.
