Are you kidding? Never giving them up!!
When I started with Dr. Jack, and he told me that I would need to take supplements, I admit, that I rolled my eyes and inwardly groaned. Ughhhhhhhh….
I could barely remember to take my necessary medication which included blood pressure, thyroid, cholesterol, metformin, and a host of supplements, calcium, vitamin d, multivitamins…. double ughhhhhhhhhhhh….
What’s funny now, fast forwarding? Yeah, I never ever forget a day of them. I lost all those pills and traded them for whole food supplements, supplements I would never forget to take! I found out just what a huge difference they make! It’s beyond measure. I did not need a single sick day this winter, have not had a cold, not the flu, no stomach issues, zip, nada…. why?? Because I am soooooo much healthier than I ever was in my entire life! Heal from the inside out! Love that plan!
Every few months, I ask Dr. Jack what supplements he is currently taking. Like clockwork. I am sure the poor man thinks I have a memory problem because I just asked him a few weeks prior! But the truth is, I want to know what he is taking seasonally…. does it change? What does he consider essential for his own body. I want to know how he, with his beyond crazy lifestyle, keeps going. What does he eat on a daily basis, what does he take, what does he do? How much exercise does he get? How much sleep?
I take a bunch of supplements, ones that he has told me are the essential ones. I no longer have stomach or sleep issues. I no longer live on coffee and have afternoon slump times. I don’t get sick, I don’t feel awful and nauseous. I don’t have weird food cravings and I am not symptomatic. They are Whole Foods, things you recognize as food ingredients. They aren’t filled with chemicals, and ingredients you can’t pronounce. I function better today than in my twenties! Yeah, I take a few supplements, and I think I will stick with this plan.
Dr. Jack has a YouTube channel where he talks about the supplements he uses in his practice. It is interesting how so many help with things I don’t even think about!
