Do supplements really work?
|
Hi Reader, A question that I'm often asked is - Are vitamins and supplements are actually worth it? And if so...which ones to take?? I get it. There's an overwhelming amount of info out there on which supplements you must take - and then others who say that supplements are just giving you expensive pee 🙄 (a catchy statement but I can quickly disprove that one with my bloodwork, which I do twice a year at a minimum). So as to which supplements you should take - for the most part that is something that is very particular to each individual. There are however supplements which pretty much everyone should ideally take, such as Magnesium and D3, but then there are also others that most people can benefit from, but not necessarily all. Have I confused you even more? Sorry 😬 Ok, so my solution to these questions was to make a video about the exact supplements that I personally take and give to my family, along with explanations as to why I take them. This is definitely not to be taken as medical or even personal advice, since I do not have your medical history in front of me. However what it can be, is a jumping off point for your own research and/or conversation with your medical professional. Supplements are definitely powerful and can be highly effective. But it is also because they are powerful that you absolutely need to know if there are any known interactions or restrictions if you are already taking prescription medication or have a pre-existing condition. I hope that you find this video helpful! Oh and if you could give the video a quick "like" or even a comment, that is so appreciated! 💗 Wishing you a beautiful weekend! Amalia

Dear Reader, A week ago, I had to go fly another redeye flight to Seattle. (Yes I’ve been doing a lot of these lately, I actually like them! 🤣) I was in a crappy mood that day. Not for any particular reason, just feeling kind of blue. Inadvertently glancing at world news didn’t help much either :/ But then, something happened on the plane once boarding started. Two little boys came on the plane, wide-eyed. Their mom told me it was their first flight ever and I asked if they would like to take...
Hi Reader, In-person connection feels more important than ever these days. I’ve just returned from Boise, Idaho, from the Craft + Commerce conference for creators (how many C’s were in that sentence?! 🤣). It was my second year attending and it was just what I needed right now. With current events in the news seeming darker and darker, sometimes it’s hard not to get sucked in and feel like that’s all there is. But after a few days spent walking in nature, listening to inspiring keynotes and...
Hi Reader, Let's face it, we live in a bit of toxic world don't we? There's plastic in everything, GMO's & pesticides in our food, pthalates and BPA's in many of our household products - Not to mention, as a Flight Attendant, I'm constantly exposed to radiation. And...who knows what else... As someone with an autoimmune condition (Hashimoto's), I constantly need to prioritize my wellness and keep inflammation down. So I am constantly "biohacking" and researching and experimenting with ways to...
