THE SUPPLEMENTS THAT ARE CURRENTLY HELPING ME STAY HEALTHY, HEAPPY & STRONG.
I think we all, somehow, deep-down inside, wish for a super-pill we could take just once, and we’d forever be healthy, happy, strong and fit and never have to worry about a thing ever again.. Sad case is; I don’t think that even exists.
But, what does exist, is an array of wonderful and amazing supplements that you can easily add to your diet, which can help you become a better and healthier version of yourself in more ways than one.
Finding the right supplements doesn’t have to be hard or lengthy – we are so lucky there are so many alternatives and brands out there these days, that we can almost always find something that will help us with any of the problems we’re facing, health-wise.
I’ve personally trialled a fair few, and I wanted to share with you which I currently have on rotation, that my body is really loving.
I love incorporating these supplements into my everyday-life, because they all help me in one way or another. Whether it’s to help stabilise my hormones, settle my reflex, help build up my gut-lining, increase my libido, or help to build more muscle-mass, they all serve a purpose in my life.
Read on to find out about a few of my favourites..
LOVE de-stress + sexiness from My Tribe Type:
I’ve become so obsessed with adaptogens since Amanda from My Tribe Type fully introduced me to them.
Adaptogens are non-toxic plants that are known for helping the body resist stressors of all kinds, whether physical, chemical or biological. These herbs and roots have been used for centuries in Chinese and Ayurvedic healing traditions, but they’re having a renaissance today. Each one claims to do something a little different, but on the whole, adaptogens help your body handle stress. They’re meant to bring us back to the middle.
With this blend, adaptogenic plants and supporting functional spice can aid stress support, sexiness, hormone balancing and antioxidant support, because it’s all about self love.
I have this 3-4 times a week, in the morning or evening before bed.
High Strength Magnesium Powder from Swisse:
With working out and training a lot, also comes some muscle and joint pain.
I’m the type of person who loves, loves, loves to work out every day, and I work out 6 days/week most weeks. Which doesn’t leave me much time to restitute.
This is where my good friend Magnesium comes in. I’m a huge fan of magnesium – both in oral form, but also as external absorbtion through the skin for targeted areas of muscle and joint pain.
I take magnesium every night before bed which both helps me sleep better & deeper, but it also supports healthy muscle function and help maintain nervous system health.
Glow Inner Beauty Powder from The Beauty Chef:
I know I’ve raved about this product before, but it continues to be a constant resident in my fridge.. I mention it’s stored in in my fridge, because that’s where it belongs after opening, otherwise the living cultures and bacteria in the product might be affected.
Just as the word says; it actually helps make your skin GLOW. No joke.
It contains 24 Certified Organic, bio-fermented and probiotic superfoods, for good gut health and healthy, glowing skin.
I love all of The Beauty Chef’s supplements, as they sit very well with my tummy and is super gentle on the gut.
I have this every morning when I rise.
The Happy Bean from My Tribe Type:
Another one from My Tribe Type, but I genuinely am so in love with these blends and I’ve found them to work incredibly well.
I have a very sensitive tummy, as you may know, and my hormones very quickly ‘go everywhere’, but this baby has really helped me get a ‘spring in my step’ on the days I’ve been felling a bit anxious and nervous.
Mucuna Pruriens (velvet bean) are called the happy bean because they contain significant amounts of L-Dopa the precursor to dopamine. They are known to lift mood and support a healthy nervous system, energy production and muscle growth. It is also known for revitalising sexiness and the reproductive hormones. It assists clear thinking and is a great pick me up at 3pm when you’re feeling that slump coming on.
Gut Relief from Nutrition Care:
I’ve only recently started taking this (few days), but it has already had an enormous impact on my heartburn and acid reflux that I deal with on a daily basis.
I used to take the same Gastrointestinal Tract Supplement for over a year, and my reflux started coming back. A naturopath told me that it’s good to rotate and try different products as your internal system gets too used to the same type of supplements day in and day out and in the end; it doesn’t have the same or wanted effect as it had in the beginning.
I can definitely say, that I already felt a change in my reflux and heartburn after just one day on this.
It targets indigestion, gastric reflux, enteritis, gastritis and much more. Try it if you’re having trouble with any of these or bloat, and feel stomach-discomfort more often than not.
Super Elixir Greens from WelleCo:
Hardly a newbie on the block or in my life – I’ve continuously kept this green elixir in my kitchen for well over 1,5 years now.
Formulated by nutritional doctors using 45 premium wholefood ingredients, this is your all-in-one daily green superfood powder for nourishment from the inside out. Also, WelleCo uses plant-based ingredients for this elixir which makes it even more so appealing to continue to incorporate into your diet.
And, incorporating it into your diet is actually easy. I find this green elixir doesn’t need to be disguised by flavours or smoothies – it tastes perfectly fine simply mixed with water.
You can read my trial I did on it last year, right here.
