Super B TabletsSuper B is a comprehensive B Vitamin complex contains all eight essential energy-boosting B Vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, and B12). It features Orgen-FA, a natural folate source derived from lemon peels, and methycobalamin, a more bioavailable source of B12. Combined with Nutmeg essential and bioavailable chelated minerals such as magnesium, manganese, selenium, and zinc, Super B not only assists in maintaining health energy levels, but it also supports mood and cardiovascular and cognitive function!
B Vitamins are essential to health and well-being and each B Vitamin performs a unique and separate function in the body. B Vitamins are not stored in the body, so supplementation is critical.
WHO SHOULD USE SUPER B?
- Anyone under stress, as it depletes B vitamins in our bodies
- Anyone who battles candida. Some believe a lack of it causes overgrowth.
- Anyone who needs energy. It nourishes our adrenals and combats fatigue.
- Anyone struggling mentally and emotionally, a deficiency can be linked to many anxious, exhausted, dark feelings and thoughts.
- Anyone who struggles with anemia, is pregnant, or doesn't eat a strong whole food diet. While we DO NOT need folic acid which is all over our processed foods and grains, we do need folate which is what you will find in this whole-food supplement.
Create a daily stress-less protocol:
- Take 2 Super B Tablets in the morning (or one in the morning and one around noon).
- Apply the Adrenal Love (Stress Recovery) Serum over the lower back morning and evening. To a 4 oz glass dropper bottle, add:
- Organic castor oil
- 25 drops Nutmeg
- 20 drops Clove
- 20 drops Frankincense
- 20 drops Rosemary
- Roll EndoFlex over the front of the throat (thyroid) and lower back (adrenals) morning and evening. Simply add a roller top to the bottle!
- Drink 2-4oz of NingXia Red daily. Make it fun! Mix it up with some kombucha, coconut water and/or sparkling water.
- Consider adding ProgEssence Plus Serum to your routine.
For more whey we love Super B Tablets, check out the Super B Supplement Spotlight blog post.

DetoxZyme Supplement
Freshen up from the inside out with this daily enzyme supplement that gently detoxes the system. There is so much in our daily life that can weigh down our systems, and DetoxZyme helps our bodies process it out so we can get the most out of our nutrition and keep functioning well!
So much more to read about this supplement on the DetoxZyme Supplement Spotlight blog post. You can find more about other incredible, oil-infused supplements from Young Living, check out this Young Living Oil-Infused Supplement blog post.
Charcoal MaskWhen you're pampering and detoxing your skin with a mask, the last thing you should have to worry about is harsh, synthetic ingredients!! Made with Tahitian volcanic black sand to gently exfoliate for softer, glowing skin, activated charcoal and a blend of ethically sourced kaolin clays, this mask will lift dirt and oil, purify pores, detox skin, and help restore the appearance of an even skin tone.
For oily, combination, and normal skin - Cleanse face with a gentle, non-irritating cleanser; then apply a thin layer of the mask to clean face and allow the mask to harden for 5–20 minutes. Once the mask has changed color and is hard, rinse with warm water to remove. Avoid the eye area, nostrils, and lips. Follow with the rest of your skin care routine, including moisturizer to rehydrate. Use 1–3 times per week.
For dry and sensitive skin - Apply a thin layer of the mask to a clean face and allow the mask to harden for 5–10 minutes. Once the mask has changed color and is hard, rinse with warm water to remove. Avoid the eye area, nostrils, and lips. Your skin will likely feel dry after rinsing, so promptly follow with the rest of your skin care routine, including moisturizer to rehydrate. Use as needed or as a spot treatment.
Create a skincare and true self-care ritual:
- Add a calming blend to your diffuse (Lavender, Tangerine + Patchouli is a great one!)
- Turn on a gentle fan or space heater to make the environment comfortable.
- Take time to wash your face, then apply the Charcoal Mask.
- As it sits, brush and floss your teeth (10/10 recommend Thieves AromaBright Toothpaste and Dental Floss), apply some Lavender Hand & Body Lotion, or some CBD Muscle Rub to the tense areas of your neck and shoulders, drink some water, and take your Life 9 Probiotic.
- Use warm water to remove the mask, then apply a moisturizer like CBD Beauty Boost or BLOOM or your desired moisturizer.
- Finish with lip balm and your favorite sleep roller (Tranquil is a fan fave!).

Key Ingredients
Pregnenolone (80%) - Pregnenolone is the key precursor for the body's production of estrogen, DHEA, and progesterone, and it has an impact on mental acuity and memory. “Pregnenolone is a prohormone that serves as a precursor for numerous steroid hormones, including cortisol, progesterone, and DHEA. It has an impact on mental acuity, energy levels and memory as well as many other body processes such as sleep/wake cycles and reproduction. Pregnenolone may also have a role in regulating mood and emotions.” - Supplement Field Guide
DHEA (20%) - DHEA is involved in maintaining the health of the cardiovascular and immune systems. “DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) is often used by athletes to promote muscle growth and strength, but this pro-hormone is also involved in maintaining the health of the cardiovascular and immune systems, improving bone density and cholesterol levels and producing sex hormones. DHEA is one of the most abundant hormones in the human body and is required for more than 150 metabolic functions. The adrenal glands naturally produce DHEA for the body to convert into other hormones. DHEA levels naturally start to decline after the age of 30 which can lead to weight gain, low energy, low libido and higher levels of inflammation.” - Supplement Field Guide
How to Use PD 80/20

I don't know about you, but I need an easy button! One of my favorites is known as the Fall Wellness Box. Simply choose an area of health to work on or a lifestyle need that fits your home and family, add the products to your subscription to earn Loyalty Rewards, and enjoy all the benefits of the amazing products you've chosen showing up on your doorstep each month!Fall is such a lovely time of year, and we want to enjoy it to its fullest. These favorite products are wonderful for this season to help us fill our home with the warm, welcoming scents of autumn, enjoy the change in weather and focus on staying above the wellness line!
What's in the Box
Thieves is the oil that's always in season, but it is especially wonderful this time of year. Cinnamon Bark, Clove, Eucalyptus and Rosemary essential oils are warm and inviting and create a calm, cozy space. Plus, they are incredible for purifying the air and supporting the immune system! Thieves and Thieves Vitality are the same essential oil, so use this incredible blend on, in and around your body all the time.
- Add a drop to honey and warm water to make ‘Thieves Tea' (you can also add herbal tea bags).
- Dilute with olive oil in an empty vegetable capsule and use as a dietary supplement every day for overall wellness support in the Fall season.
- Dilute and apply to the spine and bottom of the feet morning and evening.
- Diffuse alone or with Tangerine, Raven, Lemon, Lavender or Frankincense.
Bergamot Essential OilThis slightly spicy citrus oil is the perfect addition to any Autumn diffuser blend! Try it with Eucalyptus, Spruce or Christmas Spirit. Bergamot is also very uplighting to the mood and emotions and is very cleansing. It may also provide cardiovascular and general wellness support when taken internally.
- Diffuse with Cinnamon Bark, Thieves, Nutmeg and/or Orange
- Add to DIYs and Thieves Household Cleaner.
If there were one scent to summarize Autumn it would be Cinnamon Bark! Spicy and reminiscent of baked goods, this oil is also incredibly supportive of the immune system and packs a great antioxidant punch.
- Dilute with a carrier oil, add to a vegetable capsule and take as a dietary supplement
- Add to tea, hot chocolate, or coffee in place of ground cinnamon
- Add a drop or two of Cinnamon Bark Vitality to your NingXia Red shot to create a “Hot Shot”
- Diffuse to bring in the scents of the season!
Idaho Grand Fir Essential OilLike walking through a winter forest, this tree oil is a favorite for so many. It has a refreshing, grounding aroma that evokes a sense of fall and winter nostalgie. Idaho Grand Fir can be used to enhance yoga or meditation when diffused or inhaled and promotes the sensation of deeper breathing.
- Diffuse to help cleanse the air, promote a sense of calm and invite in the scent of Autumn!
- Add to bath salts, personal care DIYs and cologne/perfume rollers for a woodsy scent.
- Use in all your fall crafts and projects!
Orange Essential Oil (Also comes in a Vitality option) (Spotlight)The happiest of all the oils, Orange is a wonderful addition to ANY diffuser blend. Pair it with spice oils like Cinnamon Bark and Nutmeg, with Idaho Grand Fir and Lavender for sleep, or with Thieves for a great everyday blend. Orange is an incredibly uplifting oil that also inspires creativity!
- Diffuse with Thieves, Cinnamon Bark, Nutmeg or Idaho Grand Fir.
- Add to personal care and cleaning DIYs.
- Add 10 drops each Orange, Bergamot and Thieves to Thieves Household Cleaner for a seasonal twist!
Nutmeg Essential OilNutmeg is an essential fall scent. Warm and welcoming, grounding and so good for our immune and adrenal systems! Nutmeg helps our bodies to manage stress responses naturally - something we need all the time but especially in the fall. Diffuse this oil for a pick me up anytime of day.

- Add to diffuser blends and seasonal DIYs.
- Dilute with olive oil and place in an empty vegetable capsule to use as a dietary supplement for immune and adrenal support.
- Add to NingXia Red for a spicy twist.
Ditch the powdered, sugary vitamin C packets for this nutrient-dense option! Super C Chewable supports immune, respiratory, and circulatory health through orange essential oil and a broad range of fruit powders - camu camu, acerola, cherry, rose hip and more. These ingredients provide polyphenols, carotenoids, and optimal amounts of vitamin C to promote overall health, vitality, and longevity. Because your body cannot manufacture vitamin C, you can benefit by consuming this powerful antioxidant daily!
- Take 1 chewable tablet 3 times daily or as needed. Take daily or when additional vitamin C is desired.
Super Vitamin DSuper Vitamin D is an incredible source of vitamin D that helps support bone growth and healthy muscle AND plays a key function in respiratory health, supports innate and adaptive defense mechanisms, and the immune system overall. Vitamin D is also critical for mood and hormone regulation! Young Living's Super Vitamin D is a small, dissolvable tablet infused with lemon balm extract and Lime Vitality essential oil for even more health benefits.
- Take 2 tablets daily with food. Place in mouth and allow to dissolve for 5−10 seconds, then chew for optimal results.
- Note: each tablet contains 1000IU of Vitamin D.
Conquer your seasonal cold the natural way! Conventional chest rubs are full of synthetic ingredients and low-quality ‘natural' ingredients. The 100% plant-based formula of Thieves Chest Rub delivers over-the-counter strength with hands-free application for quick relief you can count on. Temporarily relieve cough and congestion with soothing aromatic vapors and a powerful combination of camphor, menthol, and eucalyptus. Thieves Chest Rub helps reduce coughing and is safe to use on family members ages 2 and up. It's a medicine cabinet must-have!
- Rub a thick layer on chest and throat up to 3 times daily or as directed by a doctor. Keep clothing loose around throat and chest so vapors can reach nose and mouth.

ImmuPro Spotlight
ImmuPro is one of our favorite ways to support the immune system! These chewable tablets contain Ningxia wolfberry (a potent antioxidant), zinc, and selenium along with melatonin for restorative rest when you aren't at your best. Grab these tablets when you feel your defenses going down - or anytime you want a little boost!MegaCal at a Glance
- Provides immune system support through a mixture of Ningxia wolfberry polysaccharides and a mushroom powder blend
- Contains Orange essential oil, which is high in limonene
- Contains chelated minerals, including zinc and selenium, which emerging science suggests are more easily absorbed by the body for proper immune function
- Delivers melatonin, which encourages restful sleep by promoting the body's natural sleep rhythm
- A convenient way to support the immune system and healthy sleep
Background
ImmuPro tablets are jam packed with some of the most powerful plant-powered immune stimulants around – the wolfberry, organic reishi, maitake, and agaricus blazei mushroom powders, zinc, and selenium. These ingredients deliver powerful antioxidant support to help reduce the damaging effects of oxidative stress from free radicals. Trace minerals like zinc, copper and selenium are essential for proper immune function. Plus, ImmuPro tablets include melatonin, a naturally occurring hormone that our bodies already produce that is great for immune support and sleep. Melatonin levels steadily decrease with age and in times of stress and is important as it encourages restful sleep by promoting the body's natural sleep rhythm.
Like all of Young Living's supplements, ImmuPro is enhanced with essential oils to help the body to assimilate and absorb the nutrients in the supplements, which is so amazing! ImmuPro contains Orange essential oil, which is rich in limonene. Limonene has been extensively studied for all of its health benefits from immune support to relaxation.
Key Ingredients
- NingXia Wolfberry - packed with antioxidants and micronutrients; helps repair and prevent oxidative damage from free radicals
- Reishi, Maitke, Mycelia mushroom powders - provide immune system support, help with memory, focus, brain health & also supports gut health (a key component of a healthy immune system!)
- Melatonin - a naturally occurring hormone that the body makes to promote restful sleep, which is essential for immune function - especially in the presence of immune invaders
- Orange essential oil - high in antioxidants and limonene, which support the immune system, bolster the natural immune response, and repair and prevent free radical damage
How to Use ImmuPro
- Take 1 chewable tablet once daily at bedtime.
- Use when you feel that telltale twinge in the back of your throat or any time you start to feel your defenses needing reinforcements.
- Use before and during travel to support the immune system (airplanes, international travel, etc.)

Background
Everyone knows that calcium is essential for healthy bones and teeth, but did you know calcium works in tandem with other minerals? This means that taking calcium supplements alone is not enough. It is essential to have a balance of magnesium and other minerals including zinc and manganese for our bodies to absorb and utilize calcium!
Calcium and magnesium specifically work together to help maintain healthy bones, nerves and teeth. Symptoms of low magnesium and calcium may include low energy and fatigue as your body has trouble performing the minute cellular tasks without these minerals. In fact, magnesium alone activates over 300 enzymes or more in the body, and when you pair magnesium with calcium, they are vital healthy nerve and muscle functions and pathways.
