What is Colostrum?
Colostrum is a natural source of antibodies which can improve gut inflammation. It does not contain lactose but does come from cows. Consider this supplement if you struggle with colitis or diarrhea, cut remember always see your friendly neighborhood colorectal surgeon first to make sure there are no other serious issues.

Cold Immersion
Yay or Nay to the cold immersion rage? I'm all for the science behind it, but my idea of a refreshing dip involves a fireside hot tub, not a polar plunge!

Flax Seed Oil
Flax seeds are great & they've been in the news for a while as something to add to your diet, but now we are going to talk about adding the actual oil from flax seeds to your daily routine. From the references I have read, in regards to the magic properties of flax seed oil, it is in regards to the concentrated versions of the oil itself. Therefore, we're speaking of either getting liquid you can put into a smoothie -or- capsules you can take by mouth, preferably at night. Why? because your body tends to absorb fatty acids better at night!

Blood Sugar Control
The key to longevity and health is blood sugar stability. When blood sugar is chronically elevated essential proteins become glycated and dysfunctional which leads to metabolic disease and end organ dysfunction. In a non-diabetic, what leads to increased blood sugar? Microbiome dysfunction and inflammatory foods.

Glutathione - You Want It!
The most powerful anti-oxidant in your body is Glutathione. You want it and you can have it! I personally take NOW brand NAC 600mg with 50mcg Selenium daily with lots of water. This increases the total body glutathione; it is extremely inexpensive. It will cause some exhaustion and even headache the first week, by day 10 you will feel the difference! There are no known contraindications and tens of thousands of studies on this supplement prove safety and efficacy in an enormous array of illnesses both physical and mental. This has been an OTC supplement for decades, is critical for children with asthma, three years ago the current admin removed it from the counters to require a prescription, but the outcry was enormous and it is back available OTC and online.

Take a Day Off
One of the things I like to do personally is to take one day a week to put faith in my family - first. To unwind and relax; try to preemptively do some of your typical weekend work during this one day during the week. So that you can spend a restful, full day during the weekend with your family.
