Many of us wait until we see something bad in our lab results before we decide to do anything about it. Did you know, chronic diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure (the silent killer), and heart disease starts brewing 10 years before they rear their ugly faces to your doctor!

Is it me or have you struggled with headaches, allergy symptoms or nausea when you wake up in the morning? I didn’t know this, but there are so many off gassing chemicals from conventionally made pillows. Ingredient like memory foam is a highly industrialized process combining flammable chemicals to make a foam. Then adding flame retardants (more chemicals) to cocktail of chemicals, we end up inhaling these off gassing chemicals for 7 to 9 hours a night.
This has the potential to overwhelm your liver, and cause you to wake up sluggish and just plain aweful. This is why I started buying non-toxic organic pillows and mattresses for my family. Just like anything in our house, we made it a goal to save up and purchase this for our children. The results, Evalyns allergy symptoms have gotten better and she doesn’t complain of headaches. I am a true believer of minimizing toxins and our bedroom is one of the most important places.

The nutrients that are depleted can be worse based on several factors.

Things like low quality diets or the standard American Diet can increase the chances of depleting your vitamins and minerals due to certain medications.

Also, a lack of detoxification behaviors like being sedentary or not moving enough throughout the day, not sweating, or not eating nutrient dense foods in order to p**p regularly.

On the other hand, nutrient dense food can only do so much, we do need to supplement to get back to baseline quicker.

Do you have any questions on the supplements mentioned in this video?

Eat less meat? Is there anything such as too much meat?

What type of meat should we avoid?

Did you know that the grass that feeds cows is associated with higher omega 3s? However, grains and corn that are often fed to livestock or cows contain high levels of omega 6s?

Omega 6 levels can take months to lower when you stop consuming them. The best way to balance is to increase yourself dose of omega 3s! The ratio of omega 3 to omega 6 should be 1:1 just like our ancestors!

Schedule: from waking up to scheduling your meal times, and going to bed at the same time every day. Your schedule is anchor if you want to be able to sleep every night.

Minimize stressors: physical stressors like environmental toxins, work stress, or going to bed at sporadic times can negatively impact your health.
