Golden Turmeric Supplement Spotlight - April 2022

Golden Turmeric

Supplement Spotlight


Turmeric is no stranger to the health scene. Young Living's Golden Turmeric powder supports the body's natural response to inflammation, immune response, joint health, mobility, and recovery after physical exertion because of it's incredible powerhouse ingredients - turmeric, Boswellia resin, and ginger work together to support the body's natural response to inflammation, immune response, joint health, mobility and recovery. 


Product at a Glance

  • Supports the body's natural response to inflammation, immune response, joint health, mobility, and recovery after physical exertion
  • 24 times more bioavailable than standard turmeric extract - your body absorbs the same amount of curcuminoids from just 300 mg of Golden Turmeric as it does from 1,926 mg of standard turmeric
  • Contains prebiotics to support healthy digestion as well as the gut-brain axis
  • Turmeric contains naturally occurring actives, such as curcuminoids, that help support joint mobility
  • Comes in a delicious Mango Rose flavor with Lime Vitality essential oil to contribute a light citrus taste
  • Is soy and milk free, formulated with gluten free ingredients, vegan friendly, and has no artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, or sweeteners
Background

Young Living's Golden Turmeric powder is an excellent source of curcuminoids, which help support the wellness properties in our bodies. Chronic, low-level inflammation plays a major role in almost every chronic, Western disease. Therefore, anything that can help fight chronic inflammation is of potential importance in preventing and even treating these diseases.

Key Constituents

Constituents are naturally occurring compounds in plants (and therefore essentialoils) that give them specific health-supporting properties.

Inflammation & Emotions
Everyone knows that chronic pain is exhausting both physically and emotionally. The same can be said of chronic inflammation as well. Chronic inflammation from injury, diet or other illnesses are like tiny fires within our bodies, and our systems are running to put out the fires all the time. Our emotions follow suit - running and running and running until we are at empty.

Modern science is researching this connection as well! Studies show that chronic stress is associated with increased inflammation, depression and negative emotions, attention changes and even dampened immune responses. Which is just even more evidence that we need to take small, daily actions to give our bodies all the things it needs to thrive. Learn more here: The Interlay Between Stress, Inflammation, and Emotional Attention: Relevance for Depression

Daily Habits with Golden Turmeric

  • Mix 1/2 teaspoons in 6-8 ounces of water, juice, or milk of choice once dialy
  • Drink at nighttime as part of your wind-down routine
  • Combine with water, ice, 1 drop Cardamon Vitality essential oil, and 2 ounces of NingXia Red for a delicious wellness drink
  • Add to a tree smoothie (it's delicious with the Vanilla Spice Protein Powder)
  • Steep Spiced Turmeric Vitality Tea and add 1/2 tsp of Golden Turmeric for a cozy nighttime drink
  • Start your day with a Golden Milk Latte (full recipe here)

Join us this month as we enjoy Golden Turmeric powder to support our physical and emotional health and wellness.

Young Living Oil-Infused Supplements - Ditch and Switch April 2021


Ditch & Switch generic supplements for

OIL-INFUSED SUPPLEMENTS


As the gatekeepers of our home we have such a great opportunity to bring in healthy products and create healthy habits for ourselves and families! 

Join us as we make a simple swap with a big impact. Ditch generic drug store supplements for the essential oil-infused supplements from Young Living.

One of the biggest changes you can make for overall health and longevity is with your supplement routine. Supplements that are oil infused with essential oils are HUGE win.

Essential oils improve absorption, assimilation within the body and utilization of all the amazing vitamins, minerals and herbs that we are ingesting with supplements. So ditch the drugstore varieties for oil-infused one.


Why we Love YL Supplements

  • Pure, clean, sustainability sourced ingredients
  • No unnecessary fillers, colors, dyes, parabens or artificial flavors
  • Infused with essential oils to enhance absorption, improve assimilation within the body and allow for more effective results
  • Convenient to order with subscription options
  • Options for daily health and target needs
  • Formulations well are studied and effective

YL Supplements vs. Conventional Options

When it comes to supplements, most of what you'll find over the pharmacy county or at the health food stores is subpar.

There are some formulation that have decent ingredients, but the majority is lacking. Even the natural ones! So many companies use fillers that exacerbate allergies or cause inflammation, and that doesn't even account for artificial colors and flavors.

Young Living supplements are different. Not only are they sustainably sourced, they include only what is necessary for the formulation. They are also infused with essential oils, which improve absorption and assimilation. This means that our bodies take in more of the vitamins and minerals and are able to utilize it much easier. This is a huge win! We have products that work better, so we are truly investing in our health on a daily basis.

Young living has a substitute for just about any vitamin, mineral, and herbal supplement you're taking!

Not sure were to start? Grab these everyday favorites:

  • Master Formula - Read more on January 2021 blog
    This convenient packet is your multivitamin and is great for any adult. You can use this as a prenatal option as well!
  • Super C Chewable
    Vitamin C is an incredible health too - immune and respiratory support, antioxidants and anti-aging. Ditch the drugstore pills and sugary packets for these whole-food Super C Chewables.
  • Super Vitamin D - Supplement Spotlight December 2021
    Vitamin D is an essential supplement. Research has shown that Vitamin D is a key player in immune, respiratory, mental and emotional health, and that basically everyone is deficient. Adding it to your daily routine is a great habit.
  • Super B Tablets - Supplement Spotlight April 2021
    B vitamins are responsible for energy, growth, longevity, and mental clarity, among other important actions. They are also not stored in the body, making daily supplementation key. Super B includes all the health-supporting B vitamins that your body craves.
  • Life 9Supplement Spotlight March 2021
    Digestive health is critical to overall health. More and more research show us that a happy, diverse set of bacterial in the gut is a cornerstone of overall health and longevity, and Live 9 is a great choice for promoting this!

Join us this month as we make a big impact on our health by switching out our daily supplements to YL's essential oil-infused versions!

Cheat Sheet for Healthy Hormones

Hormone Health Cheat Sheet

Not sure where to start when it comes to supporting healthy hormones? Check out these suggestions and learn more with the individual product spotlight linked below.

The endocrine system is a network of glands throughout the body that makes hormones - insulin, thyroid hormone, cortisol, sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone) and more. The hormones made the endocrine system are responsible for almost every cell, organ, and function in the body.

Adrenal, thyroid and sex hormones work in a cycle together. Thyroid hormone affects sex hormones. Adrenal hormones affect thyroid hormones. Sex hormones affect adrenal hormones. So when one part of the cycle isout of balance, there are consequences for the entire endocrine system.

Thyroid & Adrenals
The adrenal glands are located just above the kidneys and are know for the 'flight or fight' response. This response is natural and necessary. It protects us when in high stress situation (like running from a lion), but the constant stress of daily life often keeps our adrenals on overdrive.

The thyroid gland perfumes a myriad of tasks in the body. It regulates metabolism, energy, body temperature, and hormone production which impacts just about every other body system in some way. Thyroid support is always important, but it is especially so for women aged 25-45 and before/during/after pregnancy.

Thyroid - try ThyrominNingxia Red, and EndoFlex

Sex Hormones
Estrogen, progesterone and testosterone play a huge role in our overall health - everything from reproduction to muscle tone to mood to energy levels. Chronic stress, improper nutrition, low Vitamin D levels, and unhealthy gut balance and yeast overgrowth can all negatively affect estrogen, progesterone and testosterone.

Menstrual Cycle
When estrogen, progesterone and testosterone are out of balance, it can cause some pretty uncomfortable symptoms during the monthly cycle. Other factors for painful periods include overall inflammation and even dietary sensitives. This topic is multifactorial, but here are a few options when it comes to balancing and supporting menstrual cycles.

For more on these products, check out these these blog posts linked below.
And make up this DIY Stress Recovery Serum to support your hormones and emotions this month and beyond.

DIY Stress Recovery Serum

DIY Stress Recovery Serum

It's no secret that emotional and psychological stress can wreak physical havoc on the body. We've all heard of the 'mind body connection' and probably have our own stories of how something has gone downhill physically during times of stress. Even current scientific has connected stress to physical ailments. And lately stress seems to be the theme of the world... for us, for our kids, for our circumstances...

So, what do we do about it? We find ways to effectively process stress and we support our bodies DAILY with supplements, high quality nutrition and essential oils. And this simple DIY is one that you will want to always keep on hand for daily adrenal support.

DIY Stress Recovery Serum (aka daily love for your adrenals)
The adrenal glands are located just above the kidneys and are known for the 'fight or flight' response.. which is great if we're running from a lion. But constant stress of daily life keeps them on overdrive! Give them some love and keep them going strong. Apply over the lower back every morning and before bed each evening.

  • 4 oz glass dropper bottle
  • Castor Oil (see note below)
  • 25 drops Nutmeg
  • 20 drops Clove
  • 20 drops Frankincense
  • 20 drops Rosemary
NOTE: You can use any carrier oil, but castor oil is specifically chosen as the fatty acids in castor oil allow the essential oils to be easily absorbed through he skin. High quality, cold-pressed castor oil can help your body to detoxify and improve circulation.

Let's take a quick look at the oils in the serum...

  • Nutmeg - THE essential oil for adrenal support, Nutmeg helps process and balance feelings of Exhaustion - which makes perfect sense. When our stress response system is on overdrive, how could we feel anything BUT exhausted? And when we are exhausted we are more prone to injury and illness.
  • Frankincense - is a versatile oil that supports immunity, helps the body process inflammation and works as an antioxidant in the body. Frankincense has long been used for its powerful health-supporting properties, and has been used 'to treat every conceivable ill known to man.'
  • Clove - THE Essential oil for powerful antioxidant support. Clove has an ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value of 1,078,700 (read: Clove is able to absorb and mitigate a LOT of free radicals. It's ability to do so is basically OFF the charts.) Why antioxidants? Because they help boost immunity and allow the body to repair cellular damage caused by the environment, injury and - you guessed it - stress!
  • Rosemary - one of the components of the 'Four Thieves Vinegar' and the Thieves essential oil blend. Rosemary has wonderful cleansing properties, supports the liver and helps support healthy blood pressure levels, which all connect to the adrenals through the HPA (hypothalamic-pituitary-axis).
Use this adrenal serum daily over the lower back in the morning and before bedtime for stress recovery.

DetoxZyme Supplement Spotlight - March 2021

Supplement Spotlight

DetoxZyme


We all heard how important healthy digestion is to overall health, so we want to support it well. Much like a car runs better with proper fuel and maintenance, our bodies need high quality fuel and daily support. One way we can do that is with enzymes like DetoxZyme. 


Just a Dose of DetoxZyme

  • Promotes detoxification and cleansing
  • Vegetarian-friendly formula
  • Fast acting enzymes help break down after eating to support digestion
  • Helps provide relief of occasional symptoms such as fullness, pressure, bloating, gas, pain and/or minor cramping
  • Works synergistically with a cleansing program
DetoxZyme is a blend of enzymes and essential oils formulated to promote detoxification and cleansing, which helps support normal digestive function. DetoxZyme contains powerful essential oils like cumin, anise, and fennel that work synergistically with fast acting, powerful enzymes to help break down food and assimilate nutrients after eating and help mitigate symptoms of digestive upset.

This formulation works to complete the digestive process, improve mineral absorption from food, improve gallbladder and liver function, prevent yeast overgrowth and detoxify the gastrointestinal tract.

  • Amylase - a powerful starch-digesting enzyme that prevents fermentation of starches in the digestive system
  • Invertase - splits the sugar sucrose into glucose and fructose
  • Protease 4.5 - protein-digesting enzymes that are stable in the varying pH conditions of the digestive tract, also fight off bacteria, yeast and parasites in the intestines
  • Glucoamylase - enzyme that breaks down starches into glucose
  • Bromelain - proteolytic enzyme found in pineapple that supports carbohydrate digestion
  • Phytase - an enzyme necessary for breaking down the minerals such as zinc, magnesium and potassium found in grains, nuts, seeds, and other foods
  • Lipase - a fat-dissolving enzyme that promotes excretion of toxins
DetoxZyme & Emotions

When our bodies are overloaded with toxins or weighed down from constantly filtering everything we throw at it, things become sluggish. This not only affects our physical health; it takes a toll on us emotionally as well. This often manifests as feeling lethargic, sluggish, unmotivated or simply down. Cleansing and detoxing our systems can have profound effects on our emotional health as well.

How To Use:

Take 2 capsules 3 times daily between meals or as needed

Join us this month as we use DetoxZyme capsules to support our physical and emotional health and wellness.

Lushious Lemon - Oil of the Month March 2022

OOTMLushious Lemon

Each month we focus on using an oil every day to help us in accomplishing our goals. Join us in choosing a method of application and simply getting this oil on and around you every day in March!

Brighten your day and freshen your home with the crisp, happy, citrusy aroma of Lushious Lemon essential oil blend. This blend features bright, uplifting oils - Lemon, Lemon Myrtle, Eucalyptus, Ylang Ylang, and Spearmint - in perfect combination that brings a bit of sunshine to your day while removing any unwanted orders at the same time.


Just a Drop of Lushious Lemon

  • Has a bright, fresh, uplifting aroma
  • A great way to brighten and freshen your space
  • Can be diffused throughout your home to create a positive atmosphere
  • Features Lemon Myrtle essential oil, known for its odor-neutralizing properties
  • Includes Ylang Ylang essential oil, known for its joyful flora aroma
  • Has a sweet, citrusy aroma with floral and minty undertones
  • Makes a great addition to bath and body DIYs
  • Adds a lovely citrus twist to home and cleaning DIYs
Bath & Body Works has nothing on this incredible scent! Lushious Lemon essential oil blend can rival any candle in its ability to freshen a space, and it comes without all the toxins of a scented candle. Plus, this bright, happy blend is infused into a hand soap and a hand lotion, so we get all the good stuff and none of the bad!

Background
Lushious Lemon essential oil blend features Lemon essential oil that is cold pressed from fruit grown on the Amanzi Amahle Cooperative Farm in South Africa, as well as Lemon Myrtle essential oil that is extracted from steam-distilled leaves of the myrtle plant. Floral Ylang Ylang, obtained from plants grown in Madagascar, and cool Spearmint and Eucalyptus Globulus round out the aroma, adding a touch of herbal depth.

Key Constituents
Constituents are naturally occurring compounds in plants (and therefore essential oils) that give them specific health-supporting properties.

  • Limonene - known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-stress support, this is a powerful constituent with many health benefits.
  • Gamma-terpinene - a potential antioxidant, Chinese medicine believes that this constituent may halt the advance of unwelcome microbes, reducing the risk of colds and 'flu-like symptoms.'
  • Alpha-pinene - a powerful antioxidant, some studies have shown alpha-pinene to support the body through inflammation and to help calm the mind.
  • Eucalyptus - it has a distinctive, fresh aroma that has a calming effect on the user when applied in aromatherapy.
Lushious Lemon & Emotions
This blend is a wonderful choice for encouraging joyful, abundant thoughts and emotions. Ylang Ylang is well known for its use in aromatherapy to help release stress and anxiety, and is especially helpful when battling low self-esteem and confidence. Lemon and Lemon Myrtle have a cleansing, uplifting scent that is wonderful for processing feelings of frustration or lack. The crisp scent of Spearmint and Eucalyptus is also good for releasing physical and emotional tension. So when you combine all these oils into one blend, you have a wonderful option for emotional support.

Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub - Ditch and Switch March 2021


Ditch & Switch Cleaning Scrubs for

THIEVES KITCHEN & BATH SCRUB


As the gatekeepers of our home we have such a great opportunity to bring in healthy products and create healthy habits for ourselves and families! 

Join us as we make a simple swap with a big impact. Ditch conventional (and even 'natural') cleaning scrubs for the Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub.

Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub is the perfect naturally derived cleaner: tough on messes and safe for your family. You get the power of a surface scrub without all the harmful chemical smells and residue in conventional options.


Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub gains its tough scrubbing power from nepheline syenite, a naturally occurring mineral from Canada; baking soda that gently absorbs orders; sodium per carbonate that releases oxygen when combined with water, providing a powerful boost of cleaning power against tough stains; and Young Living's signature Thieves blend.

Why we Love It
  • Chlorine-free, all-purpose cleaner that is safe for use on porcelain, ceramic, copper alloys, fiberglass, Corain, brass, bronze, and chrome.
  • Easily cleans cookware, stove cooktops, countertops, tile, grout, bathtubs, faucets, toilets, backsplashes, barbecue grills, outdoor patio furniture, and exteriors without scratching.
  • Removes grease, dirt, grime, residue, and tough stains from most surfaces without harsh chemical smells or residue.
  • Formulated without harmful chemicals, synthetic surfactants, phosphates, synthetic perfumes or dyes, gluten-containing ingredients, or artificial colors or fragrances.

Thieves Scrub vs. Conventional Options

Have you heard of the term 'greenwashing'? It is when companies throw a catch phrase or use a certain packaging to trick consumers into thinking they are purchasing a natural product - when in reality, what they are buying isn't natural at all.

Unfortunately, the majority of the 'natural' cleaning brands out there do  this, which is a huge reason we love the Thieves Home products. No phthalates, parabens, bleach, formaldehyde, or toxic chemicals in these products - just the power of plants.

Another big issue with conventional cleaners is fragrance. Fragrance is a very loosely defined term when it comes to use in personal care and household products. Fragrance and synthetic perfumes are problematic because companies aren't required to disclose the exact ingredients in the fragrances. Even 'natural fragrance' is problematic. Just because something is natural, doesn't mean we want to rub it on our skin (ie: formaldehyde - a naturally occurring compound that we don't want on our skin!) As the world leader in essential oils, Young Living utilizes the scent of the pure essential oils instead of fragrance, plus these oils have incredible properties of their own!

Thieves Scrub Key Ingredients
  • Nepheline syenite - A naturally occurring mineral responsibly mined in Canada, it is formed from molten magma and is similar to granite. It provides the scrubbing power to remove tough stains without scratching.
  • Sodium bicarbonate - Commonly known as baking soda, this powder helps remove odors and gently cleanse.
  • Sodium per carbonate - An effective, safer alternative to chlorine bleach, this ingredient releases oxygen to lift stains and dirt.
  • Citric acid - This natural ingredient helps tackle tough hard-water surface stains.
  • Thieves essential oil blend - Thieves is a Young Living signature blend that features purifying essential oils known for their immune support, refreshing breathing experience, and cleansing properties.

To Use:

  • Sprinkle Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub onto a wet surface or sponge. Rub the surface with a cloth or sponge for a sparkling clean, then rinse.
  • Use it to naturally tackle soap scum, built-up grease and grime, and hard-water stains in the kitchen and bathroom.
  • Keep it on hand for cleaning ovens, grills, and barbecues as well.

Join us this month as we clean our homes with the plant power of Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub.
