I often get asked the question, what supplements should I take?
I get it, you want to know. And I want to tell you. But it’s not that easy, especially if you’re not a patient of mine, to know what to recommend to you. But I put together a few supplements that I believe are great maintenance supplements for everyone to take! You can order them through my supplement store here. These are not for deep healing or getting to the root cause of health issues, but they are a perfect starting place for everyone. Kids can take the Nutridyn Fruits and Greens, Multivitamin and a Probitoic.
Nutridyn Fruits and Greens
Nutridyn Fruits & Greens with Super Fruits is an easy-to-mix, great tasting, nutrient-rich superfood formula with whole food concentrates designed to provide synergistic phytonutrient nutrition. It provides a “super blend” of 100% natural fruit and vegetable extracts, vitamins, flax lignans, ionic trace minerals, enzymes, antioxidants, phytonutrients, and symbiotic intestinal flora.
This dynamic blend supplies your body with improved energy, metabolism, fat-burning, digestion, detoxification, immunity, repair, recovery, revitalization, and longevity! Dynamic Greens improves immune function, alkalizes the body and balances the pH, no sugar added and free of preservatives.
Dynamic Greens Dosage: Take one scoop daily. Take 2-3 scoops per day under periods of stress or when your body is tired. Kids can take 1/5 scoop up to 1 scoop depending on body size.
Multivitamin
Taking a multivitamin daily is an easy and inexpensive way to ensure you are getting an adequate supply of vitamins and minerals that you need each day. Because the nutrients in our food supply are decreasing, we must get essential vitamins from a supplement. Our body needs 13 essential vitamins to function properly; do you know you are getting all 13 on a daily basis? The quality of your multivitamin is crucial. I recommend Dynamic Multi Powder and Prenatal (for pre-conception, pregnancy, and postpartum) can be purchased separately. For Children, I recommend Suppys Chewable Vitamin.
Wellness Essentials Dosage: 1 scoop per day. Each pack will last 30 days.
Benefits to a Multivitamin:
- Helps combat daily stress
2. Provides needed energy for our body.
3. Prevents vitamin and mineral deficiencies
4. Provides mental clarity
5. Prevents cardiovascular disease and cancer
6. Boosts brain function
Methyl Complete Methylation Support
Stress is the number one cause of methyl groups becoming depleted. Even chronic anxiety and depression can be linked to methyl depletion. Methyl groups are needed to turn on the stress response, but they are also needed to turn it off. Some people become so depleted due to multiple stressors that they simply do not have enough to turn off the stress response and are left in a state of heightened stress. These individuals not only have anxiety but also sleep problems and eventually depression.
Methylation is a cellular activity where your cells:
- Turn On and Off Gene
- Detoxify Cellular Waste
- Repair Cell Communications
Methylation is involved with the following:
- Anxiety & Mood Disorders (Depression)
- Sleep Disorders
- Heart Issues
- Estrogen Dominance & Increased Toxic Estrogen
- Inability to Adapt to Stress
- Premature Aging
- Allergies
Methyl Complete is a methylation donor and provides an important contribution for:
- Nutrition for Reversing the Damage to Your Genes
- Nutritional Switches for Turning Genes On and Off
- Supporting Telomere Stability (the only true aging marker)
- Unparalleled Cellular Metabolic Detoxifier
- Getting Rid of Toxic Estrogen Metabolites through Phase II Estrogen Metabolism
Methyl Complete Dosage: 1 tablet 2x/day. For decreased stress adaptation, hormonal conditions or sleep/mood disorders, take 2 tablets 2x/day
Probiotic
The over-prescribing of antibiotics has become a huge problem in our modern society. And there is a price to pay in our guts for the overuse. Our insides are not meant to be sterile. To get the maximum amount of benefits, it is always recommended that you take a high-quality probiotic supplement. Many contain multiple strains of bacteria and are shielded from stomach acid to release in the intestines. The benefits are:
- Improved digestive function
- Improved immune response
- Improves lactose tolerability
- Increased mineral absorption
- Competition for harmful organisms
My favorite probiotics are the UltraBiotic Line from Nutri-Dyn. They have a wide variety of strains for different needs. My personal favorites are Ultrabiotic Multi-Strain, UltraBiotic Extra Strength and UltraBiotic Daily.
UltraBiotic Dosage: 1 capsule 2x/day as a maintenance dose. You can take up to 6 capsules per day if needed. There’s no way you can overdose on probiotics.
