Many people don't realize the importance of our lymphatic system - lymph what? Exactly!! The lymphatic system is an essential part of our immune system, supports fat absorption, and assists with waste removal. Let's explore each of these functions a bit more:

✔ Immune Function: The lymphatic system is a key component of the immune system and contains a fluid that carries our infection-fighting white blood cells throughout the body. Lymph nodes are also part of this system, and they are responsible for trapping bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substances, which are then destroyed by the white blood cells.

✔ Fat Absorption: The lymphatic system aids in the absorption of dietary fats and the fat-soluble vitamins such as A, D, E and K that we obtain from food and supplements. These nutrients are transported in the lymph fluid and eventually enter the bloodstream where they are used to nourish the body.

✔ Waste Removal: This system has also been shown to help with the removal of waste products and toxins from tissues, thereby aiding in the body's detoxification processes.

So, you can see what a vital role this system plays in protecting our bodies against infections and diseases.

Our Certified Nutritionists or our Naturopathic Doctor can make recommendations to help you support your lymphatic system for overall wellbeing.

Dandy Blend is a delicious caffeine-free herbal coffee substitute!

Dandy Blend is made from dandelion root, roasted barley, rye and chicory root. One teaspoon makes a tea-like beverage, one rounded teaspoon creates a rich, full-bodied coffee and a heaping tablespoon will have you sipping on an espresso-strength beverage. 😍

Unlike conventional coffee, Dandy Blend does not contain caffeine and is less acidic. It is a great alternative for those looking to either reduce their caffeine intake, are sensitive to caffeine, or experience acid reflux after drinking regular coffee.

Some varieties of Dandy Blend are also gluten-free, making them suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. In addition to being caffeine-free, there are many other benefits to this tasty drink including:

Liver health: Dandelion root, one of the main ingredients in Dandy Blend, has been traditionally used to support liver health and aid detoxification processes.

Digestive support: Ingredients like chicory root and dandelion root are believed to have prebiotic properties, which may support digestive health by promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria.

Antioxidant properties: Dandelion root and chicory root contain antioxidants that may help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, potentially reducing the risk of chronic diseases.

As you can see, on top of being a great coffee alternative it has many additional health benefits.😊

Suffering From Back Pain, Joint Pain Or Poor Circulation?

Incrediwear is a breakthrough technology to help
back problems, poor circulation, repetitive and acute injuries.

Incrediwear is not your typical compression sleeve! In fact, it actually does not need compression to be effective.

While traditional compression sleeves use controlled pressure to restrict blood flow, the Incrediwear Sleeves have been designed with a unique technology incorporating elements that release negative ions when stimulated by body heat.

The body's natural healing process is optimized when the negative ions create cellular vibrations that naturally🥰increase blood flow and blood circulation, helping to bring more oxygen and nutrients to the injured area while shortening the recovery period.

🔥Back Pain
🔥Shoulder Injuries

Sleep is a cornerstone of good health, affecting nearly every aspect of our physical and mental well-being.

During sleep, our bodies engage in vital processes, including cellular repair, detoxification, and memory consolidation. Without sufficient rest, these essential functions are compromised, leading to various health issues.

One of the most immediate consequences of sleep deprivation is the impairment of our concentration, problem-solving and decision-making abilities. In addition, poor sleep has been linked to an increased risk of anxiety and depression.

Poor sleep habits have also been associated with a higher risk of chronic health conditions such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and even certain types of cancer. This underscores the importance of prioritizing sleep as part of a holistic approach to overall health and disease prevention.

In our fast-paced society, it's easy to sacrifice sleep in favor of work, socializing, or entertainment. However, neglecting our sleep needs ultimately undermines our productivity, creativity, and ability to cope with stress effectively.

Sufficient sleep should be a non-negotiable priority for everyone in your family. Investing in your sleep is not a luxury, but a necessity for a vibrant and healthy life.

So instead of counting sheep to try and fall asleep, please visit the clinic and speak with one of our Certified Nutritionists who can make some supplement suggestions to help you get a good night's rest.
