Supplements - Everybody Everyday for Life in Roseville!!

5 million bajillion! That's how many supplements are out there, seriously! It never ceases to amaze me how many different supplements are out there and how each one if the BEST one EVER invented and will change the course of humanity...not likely. Take this for back pain or neck pain. Sciatica, take this herd. Take this for asthma. Or rub this on for headaches and migraines. Don't buy into everything that's out there. Are there certain supplements that can help with certain conditions, yes but if you're supplementing correctly to begin with and living a healthly lifestyle and getting adjusted then it's very rare that you will even need them.

So what do you make of all the different decisions available? How do you know what to take and what not to take? I will tell you that it is not as hard as it seems and that for the most part you can put ear plugs in and blinders on and not pay attention to the hooplah that's out there.

So here it is plain and simple. Eat a healthy diet consisting of plenty of raw vegetables and fruits. Complement that with seeds and nuts and then some organic meats. Now, you're almost there, the only supplements you will need at this point are Omega 3 fish oils, Vitamin D, Probiotics (vegetarian), and a quality multi vitamin. Done. That's it. Plain and simple. Don't make it harder that it has to be. The brand of choice for me is "Innate Choice" but choose which ever high quality works for you.

Why these supplements? Without getting too deep into this we need Omega 3 to balance the Omega 3 to 6 ratio which causes insane amounts of inflamation and omega 3's are no longer found in our foods because everything is farmed, not natural. We need Probiotics because our gut depends on it which controls mental process and immune response and we spray everything down with pestisides and wash everything so there's not a good bacteria left to digest. We need vitamin D to help with bone strength and immunity and we don't get nearly enough sun and when we do we lather up with SPF 1000. Lastly, we need a multi vitamin to get more nutrients because even the healthy food we may think we are eating doesn't have nearly the nutrients it used to because nutrients in the soil are depleted from so much farming. This makes sense, right!? Let's not make this harder than it needs to be. Now go out there and take action, Eat Right, Supplement Right, Exercise Right, and Get Adjusted!!

Until next time,
