Spoonful of… Vitamins
/The pandemic has us all a bit loco. Never did I think I would see the day when wearing masks is en vogue & shaking hands is taboo. That said, here we are.
The one benefit of all this social distancing is having the opportunity to kick your health & immune system into high gear. I’ve been working closely with my plant based acupuncturist Dr. Crista who has made me a believer in Eastern Medicine & have provided a concoction of vitamins and supplements to really things fired up.
One of my favorite things she’s introduced me too are supplements that help to combat inflammation, curb hunger, and just overall make you feel energized. The hardest part is remembering to take them.
Life hack - store vitamins next to the coffee. If you have a chance to make a coffee, you can easily take the vitamins also!
Here’s what I keep top shelf:
anti-inflammatory that is taken 2x per day. I was concerned that my cortisol levels were elevated from being under stress.
