These are a few of my favorite things…

If you are like me, your family can always look forward to a few bottles of whatever your newest favorite supplement is this year in their stocking! I always think, instead of packing the stocking full of candy (which is terrible for us) or tiny trinkets (that really never get used for anything), why not spend our time and money shopping for things that can improve the health of our family members!? Stuff those stockings with vitamins and healthy snacks this year! If you need some ideas,
 
These are a few of My Favorite Things…

1. Needing some extra ENERGY and brain power for the holidays? Try CoQ10 with PQQ to support your mitochondria! Ok, you don’t remember what mitochondria are? You might remember from high school biology that the mitochondria are the “powerhouse” inside your cells. They are literally responsible for making every single thing in your body work – from your brain, your heart, your lungs, your feet, your mouth, and so on. Without the mitochondria functioning at full force, the body is not able to create energy or antioxidants, which increases the rate of exhaustion and the rate of aging! (Who wants that!?) With CoQ10 and PQQ, you should start to feel more energy, better brain function, and faster recovery in sore muscles. [Shop for SR CoQ10 with PQQ by Pure Encapsulations]
2. Have all the cold weather and holiday parties given you a back or neck ache? Try InflaCalm proteolytic enzyme and anti-inflammatory herb combo product: Finally, an answer to the sore/stressful neck situation! Who knew there was a natural alternative to taking an ibuprofen that is just as effective? This super powerful all-in-one capsule combines the anti-inflammatory healing properties of some famous herbs like Curcumin and Bromelain with the PacMan like, inflammation-eating power of the proteolytic enzyme serratiopeptidase (enzymes taken between meals actually “chew up” plaques, biofilms, and inflammatory molecules in the body).

3. Time to R-E-L-A-X and enjoy the moment… Try LemonBalm herbal tincture: This handy and super-safe* liquid tincture is the perfect asset to any holiday gathering with its uses ranging immune support to mild anxiety relief/ mood stabilization to insomnia. Give your family the gift of happiness this holiday season and even help ease the tension for family dinners! [Shop for Lemon Balm by Herb Pharm]
4. Need a little extra BOOST for your day? Try Electrolyte/Energy Packets: Keep the adrenals (organ of energy) happy this holiday season with a few extra electrolytes. Whether you are draining your body of electrolytes with holiday parties, family hikes, or extreme workouts, nearly every body does a little better with electrolytes. Electrolytes are foundational for our health as they contribute to the functionality of every cell in our body and support many detox pathways. You can ready more about electrolytes here.

5. While enjoying the holiday treats, keep your digestion smooth and even start the detox process. Try GastriGest digestive enzymes: Don’t leave home without these!! Before you head out for the holiday party with Great Aunt Louise’s homemade parmesan crab dip, pack yourself some GastriGest enzymes so that creamy sauce and bread doesn’t sit like a brick in your stomach for four days. Digestive enzymes support your body’s own digestive processes by adding a little more fuel to the system. Taking enzymes with meals helps the food to digest faster and better which makes you feel uncomfortably full for less amount of time and meanwhile improves the absorption of the nutrients from the foods you eat.
