So What is Fatty Liver? 👀

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is now the most common liver condition in the U.S., affecting over 1 in 3 adults - including many who are lean or don’t drink alcohol.

The liver’s job is to process fats, not store them. But when the body is overwhelmed by blood sugar spikes, insulin resistance, inflammatory foods, alcohol, or toxins, the liver starts accumulating fat internally - impairing its function.

Early signs are subtle but important to catch:
🔸 Persistent fatigue – The liver is a metabolic engine. When it’s sluggish, energy production declines.
🔸 Bloating and abdominal discomfort – Poor bile flow and fat digestion are often early indicators.
🔸 Weight gain around the midsection – This is tightly linked to insulin resistance and metabolic overload.
🔸 Cravings for carbs and sugar – Your liver and pancreas are closely linked in blood sugar regulation.
🔸 Elevated liver enzymes on labs – Often found incidentally and dismissed until things worsen.
🔸 Brain fog or mood shifts – Toxin buildup and poor blood sugar regulation can affect the brain.
🔸 Skin issues – Acne, dark patches, or inflammation may show up as the liver struggles to clear waste.

The scary part? Many people with fatty liver don’t know they have it - until it's progressed into inflammation, fibrosis, or even cirrhosis.

But here’s the good news: Fatty liver is reversible.

By identifying and addressing the root causes, you can support liver regeneration and reduce risk of long-term complications like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, or autoimmune flares.

✅ Reduce added sugars and refined carbohydrates
✅ Improve insulin sensitivity with movement and mitochondrial support
✅ Support bile flow and liver detox pathways with targeted nutrients
✅ Utilize therapies like infrared sauna, fiber, and antioxidant support
✅ Manage stress and cortisol (yes, your brain-liver connection matters)

🍔🥤 Your diet is silently destroying your ability to feel good.

Yeah, I said it. And no, it’s not your fault - the system is rigged. 😤

Ultra-processed foods. Seed oils. Artificial additives. Constant snacking.

We’re surrounded by “food” that hijacks our brain, disrupts our hormones, inflames our gut, and overloads our liver.

THAT is the real reason you’re bloated, foggy, tired, and stuck in survival mode.

Your body wants to detox - but it’s drowning in toxins and inflammation.

When your detox pathways are sluggish, you can see:

🧠 Brain fog & poor focus
🥱 Chronic fatigue
💥 Hormonal imbalances (PMS, low T, estrogen dominance)
🥴 Acne & skin rashes
🍔 Bloating, constipation, IBS
😰 Anxiety & mood swings
🦴 Joint pain & inflammation
💊 Even autoimmune flares & migraines

👉 Some researchers even link poor detox to increased risk of:
– PCOS
– Hashimoto’s
– ADHD
– Metabolic syndrome
– Estrogen-sensitive cancers

That’s why we created the 7-Day Detox.

✅ Targets toxic build-up from modern food
✅ Helps reset gut, liver, metabolism & brain
✅ Clears up bloat, cravings, fatigue & more

🔍 Beware the Fine Print: What’s Really in Your Magnesium?

A lot of supplement bottles shout “High Potency Magnesium!” in big bold letters.

Flip the label over, and you’ll often find the fine print: magnesium oxide.

👉 Here’s the catch:

Magnesium oxide has terrible absorption - as low as 4%. That means most of it never makes it into your bloodstream…and ends up in the toilet instead.

If you’ve ever taken magnesium and wondered, “Why don’t I feel any different?”…this could be why.

Better-absorbed forms (like magnesium glycinate, malate, or threonate) cost a little more, but they actually work - without the guesswork (or digestive surprises 💨).

Next time you pick up a magnesium supplement, check the label before you check out. Your body deserves the good stuff. 🫶

I am curious, have you ever rule magnesium ineffective for you before reading the fine print? Let me know 💬

🚫 Your Magnesium OTC Sucks. Let’s Talk About It.

Look, I’m just going to say it: Most of the magnesium you see on store shelves isn’t doing much for you.

If you’ve ever grabbed a cheap bottle of magnesium oxide because it was $8 and promised “high absorption,” here’s the truth:

👉 It’s mostly acting as a laxative.
👉 Your body absorbs very little of it.
👉 You’re not getting the heart, brain or muscle benefits you think you are.

💡 What actually works?

If you’re taking magnesium for focus, mood, sleep, or stress, you need forms that actually get into your cells and your brain:

✅ Magnesium Glycinate - highly absorbable, gentle on digestion, great for relaxation

✅ Magnesium L-Threonate - great for memory, focus, sleep, and calming the nervous system

✅ Magnesium Malate - Excellent for energy production and helps with muscle pain and fatigue

Not all magnesium is created equal - and quality matters.

🙌 If you’re tired of wasting money on stuff that doesn’t work, it might be time to upgrade. Your brain and body will thank you.

✌🏼Years Ago.......

We made a post about supplement alternatives to ADHD medications during the shortage. 💊

That led to a response that we didn't necessarily expect - thousands of people relating to this topic for themselves and/or for their kids.

We started doing consults with people from all over the country to help them navigate the ADHD medication shortage with alternative options.

The feedback was tremendous.

Great results. Less Stress. Open-Mindedness. 💙

To this day, we are still helping people navigate alternative options for these medications.

But this leads me to my next question - what other health/wellness topics are people struggling with? And how can we be a solution as pharmacists? 🫶🏼
