Inner Beauty Collagen Spotlight - June 2022

Inner Beauty Collagen

Supplement Spotlight



Whether you're wanting to up your hair & skin game, feeling that postpartum hair and skin slump, or needing a little extra boost after being under the weather, we've got you covered. Meet your new beauty BFF - Inner Beauty Collagen!


Inner Beauty Collagen at a Glance

  • Reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in as few as three weeks
  • Source of marine collagen (Type 1), which is more bioavailable and better absorbed by the skin, giving you better results
  • Supports the dermal layer after UV-induced skin damage
  • Contains prebiotic fiber, which supports healthy skin by balancing the gut microbiome
  • Tasteless powder means you can mix it into anything you want
  • Strengthens and supports healthy hair and nails
  • Promotes skin elastic and hydration with Type 1 marine collagen and peach ceramides
  • Free of artificial fillers, flavors, colors, and sweeteners.
  • Mix it Up with these tips and tricks and yummy recipes in the 2022 Convention Recipe Book
Collagen is THE protein of the body. Its the most abundant protein and is the crucial support piece for your hair, skin, nails, joints, muscles and gut lining. Collagen also helps with melatonin levels (your natural sleep hormone), antioxidant levels (so important for overall health and longevity), and a healthy liver.

Unfortunately, collagen levels decrease as we get older (starting as early as age 25) but as it decreases, we actually need it the most (joint needs, skin and hair trouble, brittle nails, etc). As we age our natural collagen also becomes more fragmented and fragile, so it doesn't hold up as well as it used to. Because of this, adding a high quality collagen supplement to your health routine is a wonderful way to help your body replenish collagen levels and promote its own collagen production.

Made with a highly soluble form of bioavailable Type 1 marine collagen, peach ceramides, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and no added sugars, Inner Beauty Collagen supports your natural radiance from the inside out. Inner Beauty Collagen supports vibrant, lit-from-within skin and healthy-looking hair and nails with a daily dose of collagen, antioxidants, and other skin-supporting ingredients that are naturally derived and sustainably sourced, so you can feel good about your skin and your purchase.

Background

Young Living cares about bringing natural products that work, so they have been working on a collagen formulated for the past four years! Chasing fads doesn't interest YL, but if a supplement looks promising, they often spend years examining the market for what works best.

Unlike other collagen powder supplements derived from bovine sources, Young Living's Inner Beauty Collagen features bioavailable Type 1 marine collagen source exclusively from sustainable marine sources. Other key ingredients include skin-hydrating ceramides extracted from Japanese peaches, tapioca fiber from plants harvested sustainably in Thailand, and exclusive Vanilla oleoresin that's blend with fractionated coconut oil instead of alcohol.

This incredible daily supplement isn't new though. It has been available in international market for years, and it was so popular that it became available to the US and Canada as of June 2022.

Benefits of Marine Collagen

Great for skin, hair, nails, joints and gut health!

Science has identified 28 different types of collagen, but there are four types that are important for the human body - Type 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Type 1 collagen comprises about 75% of the body's collagen glycoproteins and is the principal type found throughout the body. Many collagen supplements are sourced from grass-fed cattle or pasture-rained chicken and contain multiple types of collagen, but are primarily The 2 collagen. Fish collagen peptides are bioactive Type 1 collagen and are best known for providing the basis for beautify skin and strong connective tissues.

Marine collagen is rich in amino acids that support the body's natural production of collagen and is associated with skin, hair, nails, and keeping the joints lubricated and the gut healthy.

Promotes healing of skin cells & stimulates natural collagen production.

Inner Beauty Collagen is Type 1 marine collagen and contains a unique combination of amino acids, including hydroxyproline, glycine, and proline - distinctive peptides that stimulate cells in the skin, leading to collagen synthesis. These constituents promote the healing of skin cells and stimulate the production of natural collagen and fibroblasts, a biological cell that synthesizes collagens. This cascade of events will help maintain clear skin and improve nail and hair growth in the long run. Additionally, fish collagen peptides promote bone and join health by keeping joints lubricated and facilitating movement.

Much better absorbed than other collagen sources.

Marine collagen is absorbed up to 1.5 times more efficiently in the body, and the bioavailability is superior to collagen of both bovine or porcine. This is due to its smaller particular size compared to other types of collagen. This smaller particular size allows an easier and faster uptake and transportation of the collagen peptides to the skin, bones, and joints for the synthesis of new collagen.

Liquid vs Powdered Collagen 

Some will tell you that powdered collagen is not as bioavailable as liquid collagen. Marine collagen bioavailability is NOT affected or changed if it is in powder form or liquid form before consuming it. (When liquid shots are manufactured, the collagen is these products begins as a powder anyway.)

When you add Inner Beauty Collagen to a liquid, it dissolves almost instantly. That's partially due the purity of the collagen and the process that it undergoes to break down the collagen protein into peptides. The improved bioavailability also comes from the amino acid profile in marine collagen, and the type of amino acids in this matrix are absorbed more efficiently compared with other sources. One of the main benefits of this powered formula is that it's flavorless, so you can enjoy Inner Beauty Collagen with any beverage.

Key Ingredients

Inner Beauty Collagen contains 5 grams of marine collagen per scoop, and the first ingredient in this product is collagen peptides. Many other products on the market don't directly disclose how much collagen is in their products. Look for fruit juices and other additives that are grouped with collagen, as they may may how much collagen is in these products.

  • Type 1 marine collagen - a highly soluble form of bioavailable Type 1 collagen, this ingredient is sourced from fish using a property hydrolysis manufacturing process that uses no harsh chemicals or solvents. It is odorless and tasteless. The collagen in Inner Beauty Collagen is sustainably sourced from crimson snapper, saddletail snapper, carp, cod, pollock, tilapia, golden threadfin bream, milkfish, and sea perch.
  • Peach Ceramides - this ingredient helps provide hydration to the skin, decreasing skin dryness. The natural glucosylceramide in Inner Beauty Collagen is a white peach-derived ceramide made and produced in Japan. Its function is to increase ceramide production in the skin, which helps provide hydration, decreasing skin dryness. It also supports the dermal layer after UV-induced skin damage.
  • Biotin, Vitamin C, and Zinc - Vitamin C and Zinc support collagen synthesis for glowing skin, while biotin supports hair and nail health. Vitamin C is required for the biosynthesis of collagen, and it is also an important physiological antioxidant that has been shown to regenerate other antioxidants within the body.
  • Tapioca fiber - this prebiotic fiber supports healthy skin by balancing the gut microbiome.
  • Superoxide dismutase (SOD) - is an antioxidant enzyme produced through fermentation.
  • Hyuluronic acid - this ingredient supports skin hydration, helping to reduce the appearance of fine Ines and wrinkles for more youthful-looking skin.
  • Vanilla oleoresin - this oleoresin is a unique form of vanilla that is neither an extract nor an absolute, both of which contain mostly alcohol, and is extracted from hand-pollinated orchid blossoms.
Sourcing

The collagen used is produced from 100% fish skin and scales that would otherwise be discarded and sourced from a sustainable and traceable supply chain, it is not irradiated and is certified non-GMO, presenting unmatched advantages in the market. This collagen comes from different types of fish, including red snapper, tilapia, milkfish, and others. This ingredient is extracted to include purified fish collagen peptides that will not contain any other unwanted compounds, oils, contamination, or toxins. Because this is a secondary source, these fish may come from farmed or wild-caught sources. The fish is carefully washed to ensure the highest-quality ingredients.

How to Use Inner Beauty Collagen

  • Mix 1 scoop of Inner Beauty Collagen with 4-8 ounces of water or your favorite hot or cold beverage daily.
  • Combine with 1/2 tsp of Golden Turmeric and 1 cup of water or juice in a shaker bottle for a synergistic effect.
  • Stir 1 scoop into a cup of your favorite hot tea such as Spiced Turmeric Herbal Tea.
  • Mix with 2 ounces of NingXia Red and 1/2 cup of juice or sparkling water for a tasty, collagen-boosting elixir.
  • Add 1 scoop to a can of NingXia Zyng poured in a glass for a sparkling drink that supports skin health.
  • Blend 2-4 scoops into the batter of baked goods. (Don't use in recipes calling for cooking temperatures above 380 degrees F)

FAQ

What makes Inner Beauty Collagen different from other collagen supplements?
  • Inner Beauty Collagen is a marine collagen, sustainably sourced from fish, so it contains Type 1 collagen, which is primarily known from its ability to improve hair, skin, nails, joint and gut health. Young Living's collagen supplement is the best, sustainably sourced marine collagen that is scientifically proven to provide results... and at the best price available.
  • Inner Beauty Collagen is highly soluble form of bioavailable Type 1 marine collagen that is combined with peach ceramides, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and Vitamin C that further improve skin hydration, elasticity and hair and nail health.
Is liquid or powdered collagen better?
  • While both types of collagen have benefits, we prefer the Inner Beauty Collagen powder as it has more collagen per serving and is more bioavailable than typical liquid collagens, it comes as a tasteless powder that can be mixed into anything, and the bulk packaging is more sustainable and environmentally friendly than individual liquid packets.
What is the difference between AgilEase and Inner Beauty Collagen supplements? Doesn't AgilEase have collagen? Can I take both?
  • AgilEase is truly a joint health supplement that contains Type 2 collagen, hyaluronic acid, frankincense powder and a blend of essential oils that support the body's natural response to inflammation after exercise. In general, collagen is good for skin, hair, nails, joints, muscles, and gut health, but Type 2 collagen is specifically supportive of muscles and inflammatory states. Type 1 collagen is ideal for hair, skin, nails, and joints.
  • You can take both AgilEase and Inner Beauty Collagen if you choose as they each have a specific purpose and have unique benefits.
Are there ingredients containing gluten or derived from corn, soy, palm/coconut, or tree nuts in Inner Beauty Collagen?
  • There are no ingredients containing gluten or derived from corn, soy, palm/coconut, or tree nuts in this formula. Please be aware that while this product does not include any of these ingredients, it is possible that this product may be manufactured in a facility that uses these ingredients in other product formulations.

Master Formula Supplement Spotlight - June 2022

Master Formula

Supplement Spotlight



Master Formula is a daily must have - it is the Young Living equivalent of a multivitamin. This full-spectrum, multi nutrient complex provides premium vitamins, minerals, and food-based nutrients to support general health and well-being. Not only is it an exceptional formula of necessary vitamins and minerals, it includes antioxidants and essential oils that further increase the absorption of all those wonderfully good things.


Just a Drop of Master Formula

  • Naturally supports general health and well-being for the body
  • Contains gut flora-supporting prebiotics (SO important for gut health and for absorption of all the vitamins and minerals Master Formula contains)
  • Ingredients help neutralize free radicals in the body
  • Includes antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and other food-based nutriment
  • Packaged sachets are convenient to take your vitamins on the go
  • NO synthetic ingredients. NO artificial colorings. NO unnecessary fillers. AND you can bet that every ingredient used is of the highest quality.
When it comes to conventional vitamins and supplements, it is incredibly difficult to find options that aren't filled with unnecessary colorings, fillers, and binders. Sadly, these ingredients are almost always synthetic, wreaking havoc on the body, especially over time, disrupting hormones, causing allergies (often low-level so we barely notice) and gut disruption. And none of us wanted that for ourselves or our families. Especially when we are trying to do something good, like take a multivitamin.

Background

Sadly, our current foods (even the healthiest, homegrown options) lack a lot of the vitamins and minerals that thy used to contain. Whether a result of conventional farming practices, long delays in shipment or a deleting of nutrients in the soil, we simply aren't getting quite enough from food alone, which is why a high quality multivitamin is essential. In fact, it is one of the most prescribed over the counter supplement in the US.

Young living also engineered a wonderful delivery system for this multi nutrient complex to improve bioavailability of all these incredible ingredients. Its is called Synergistic Suspension Isolation process (SSI). The ingredients are delivered in three distinct delivery forms that are easy for the body to assimilate. Just one more reason why Young Living supplements are superior to any others.

Key Ingredients

  • Turmeric root oil - Turmeric root is well known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti tumor, and anti-aging properties.
  • Vitamin A, D, E and K2 - all essential vitamins for bone, teeth, and heart health.
  • Cardamon, Clove, and Ginger essential oils - antioxidants that support digestion, health and vitality.

How to Use Master Formula

  • Take 1 packet (1 liquid capsule, 1 caplet, 2 capsules) daily with water
  • May also be taken with 1-2 oz NingXia Red
For more on Master Formula and other incredible, oil-infused supplements from Young Living, check out this Young Living Oil-Infused Supplement blog post.

Companion Products

Join us this month and beyond as we focus on getting all our nutrients from a high-quality multivitamin - a cornerstone of good health.

Summer Stock Up - 2022


Summer Stock Up

Summer is just around the corner, and we are ready for long days of warmth and sunshine and lower schedules!

We're stocking up on these seasonal favorites to make the most of this coming season and to be prepared for the inevitable bumps in the road.

Travel Favorites

Whether you're going on a plane, train, or automobile or having a staycation, here are the travel necessities we're stocking up on now (before they sell out!)

Enjoy the outdoors without pesky pests. This insect repellant is a crowd favorite because it works, it's safe for the whole family (no DEET here) and it super convenient. It comes as a liquid and as wipes.

Protect tender skin with the power of plants with YL's Mineral Sunscreen. Safe and effective for you and safe for reefs as well. A little goes a long way with this water-resistant formula, so its definitely a staple in our household.
These predicted roller blends are perfect for stashing in your suitcase, purse, backpack or first aid kit! Owie is great for owes, TummyGize is everyone's tummy BFF, SniffleEase is great for sniffles, and SleepyIze is perfect for winding down at the end of the day.

Trust us when we say these wipes are life savers! Use to quickly clean hands, soothe skin post-sun, even remove sand from the skin. You can also use them as makeup remover wipes and for their obvious, original intent. Soft and soothing on the skin but effective.


Thieves Spray is our go-to for cleaning ALL-THE-THINGS on the go - hands, high chairs, steering wheels, porta potties, even fruit in a pinch. We also keep a large bottle of Thieves Hand Sanitizer in each vehicle for easy use. Goodbye germs!
Wellness Favorites

The lazy days of summer have us relaxing more for sure, but one thing we're not relaxing on is our true self care and wellness routines! Even on vacation, we make sure to take our daily supplements and oils with us. Here is what we always pack:

NingXia Red is a powerful antioxidant supplement that has some amazing health benefits. Basically it is an antioxidant POWERHOUSE. This daily drink has so many health benefits, it's hard to list them in one place! Freeze the packets for a slushy-like afternoon treat, add them to smoothies or even make your own healthy popsicles.
It is easy for us to get dehydrated in the summertime. Sunshine, heat, and chlorine can quickly deplete our systems, and one way we love to combat that with electrolyte drops. Whether you choose Lavender Lemonade or Grapefruit Bergamot, these little drops are a tasty way to make sure you and yours stay hydrated this system.


Super B is one supplement we never want to be without. This B complex is an everyday must have all year round to help support healthy energy levels and decrease stress.
Skincare Needs

Summer means more time outside, which can leave everyone's skin needing a little extra TLC. Here are a few favorites we keep on hand to help!

Peppermint, Lavender, & Tea Tree essential oils
These three oils are wonderful for soothing skin after seeing a bit too much sun. Whip up a quick 'After Sun' balm, spray or roller with this trio and/or add it to Epsom salts to reduce the sting of tender skin.

Our go-to balm for any and every skin need! From wind or sun-chapped lips and cheeks to soothing owes to using as an ultra-hydrating moisturizer, this rose infused balm is a must have for every season.

The name of this product stays it all! Lavaderm is SO soothing to tender skin of any kind - from sunburns, bug bites, rug or trampoline burns - really anything that needs soothing. This spray combines Lavender and Peppermint with carrier oils that spray directly on skin - no rubbing required!

Grab this summery body butter to keep skin soft, smooth and hydrated all season long. Its great for everyday use and extra lovely after some time in the sunshine. Not a fan of coconut and lime? Try the Lushious Lemon Hand & Body Lotion!

SleepEssence Supplement Spotlight - May 2022

SleepEssence

Supplement Spotlight



SleepEssence is a wonderful supplement for helping the body relax into its natural, restful sleep rhythm. It contains many sleep-supporting essential oils as well as melatonin to help you fall asleep and sleep well.

Just a Drop of SleepEssence

  • Formulated with Lavender and Valerian essential oils, which help promote restful sleep
  • Supports the body's natural sleep rhythm with melatonin
  • Promotes overall well-being when used in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle
  • Can be used to help promote rest whenever you need it
Sleep is a critical part of your health, both everyday wellness and when acute needs arise. Getting enough sleep can help reduce inflammation, make it easier to maintain a healthy weight, and improve everything from mental health to memory. Our bodies actually use sleep to repair cellular damage, fight off germs, to balance hormone levels, and reduce inflammation. Sleep is incredibly important!

Sleep Essence is a great way to support sleep, especially if used alongside diffusing and applying oils. The ingredients in SleepEssence help the body relax physically and mentally to find restful sleep.

  • Lavender - calming and relaxing to the mind and body (Lavender Spotlight)
  • Vetiver - high in sesquiterpenes, constituent that help reduce stress on the body
  • Valerian - helps the body relax into sleep more quickly and may improve sleep quality
  • Tangerine - helps relax the mind and body (Tangerine Spotlight)
  • Rue - helps calm the nervous system
  • Melatonin - widely know for its ability to regulate circadian rhythm
SleepEssence can be used anytime you are needing help when it comes to sleep, but as we mentioned earlier, sleep is essential when the body is run down. The body utilizes sleep to perform many immune system tasks to decrease inflammation and produce cells to fight infection.

How to Use SleepEssence

  • Take 1-2 soft gels 30-60 minutes before bedtime

Join us this month and beyond as we focus on getting adequate, high quality sleep - a cornerstone of good health.

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 9 - Supplement 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 Thyromin, Ningxia 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.

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.
