Are you buying supplements on Amazon? Taking supplements because they work well for your friends or family? Not sure what they do, but you heard they were โ€œgood for you?โ€

Donโ€™t guess. Yes, there are a few mostly good for everyone supplements, but beyond that itโ€™s important that you know what and *if* your body needs anything supplemental.

I recently posed 6 MYTH or FACT questions. Answers below ๐Ÿ‘‡

Yes, mostly myths, but it was great to see all of your responses.

โญ MTHFR gene variations mean that your body has a more difficult time making the active form of folate. It does not mean that you have none. Some people respond well to low doses of supplemental Vitamin B12 but others do just fine without it. There are many other genes that contribute to the methylation cycle and MTHFR is just one part of the cycle.

โญ Intermittent fasting is an amazing dietary practice (one that I follow myself). It has been the go-to dietary practice going back to our ancestors, but, if you are under significant stress or have difficulty regulating your blood sugar, it can be helpful to get those things under control before adding this additional stressor to your body. Also, fasting is not recommended if you are pregnant or trying to become pregnant. Adjustments should also be made for women who are still cycling. Some genes may cause an altered response to fasting too.

โญ Sleep should be priority #1 - yes, above nutrition and exercise, especially for those who are trying to lose weight. If you are not getting adequate deep sleep (NREM) it will make your weight loss journey even tougher!

โญ Most genes do not cause disease, but they can become a little sluggish with poor diet and lifestyle choices. You definitely have some control over your health. The test is my go-to for helping clients understand how to personalize their health choices.

โญ Yes, drink plenty of water. If you are moderately active, you may need even more.

โญ A low-fat diet is definitely not ideal. The low-fat diet is what led to all the sugar being added into our foods. Focus on healthy fats - eggs, nuts, seeds, avocado and fatty fish. Avoid seed oils! Saturated fats are ok in small portions.

Do you struggle with the โ€œwinter blues?โ€

I did. This was the primary reason I moved from New Jersey to California more than 20 years ago.

As the seasons shift and the days grow shorter, itโ€™s common to feel a bit down or sluggish.

For some, these changes can bring more significant shifts in mood and energy, known as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).

Nutrition can play a powerful role in supporting your mental health and boosting your mood during the winter months.

Here are 5 simple strategies:

โœ… Increase vitamin D intake (but limit fortified foods!)
โœ… Increase antioxidant intake
โœ… Increase omega-3 fatty acids
โœ… Limit caffeine intake
โœ… Focus on balanced plates

Want to try a great meal to balance your plate?

๐Ÿ‘‰ Comment MOOD and Iโ€™ll DM you the recipe for Pan-Seared Salmon with Lentils and Spinach!

๐Ÿ‘‰ Bonus Tip: Donโ€™t forget to pair good nutrition with lifestyle habits like light therapy, regular exercise, and social connection for a well-rounded approach to SAD!
