2. Dr. Daryl Gioffre Alkamind Daily Greens
It’s so important to keep your body alkaline, which is why I started taking Alkamind Daily Greens. I wake up every morning and put one scoop into water and mix it together before I drink anything else. I SWEAR by these greens! They have a blend of 21 vegetables, grasses, herbs, low-sugar fruits, and nutrient-rich superfoods to help with inflammation, weight, and energy. All of the ingredients are 100% raw and organically grown!
I also take the Alkamind Daily Minerals at night to help with sleep, recovery, pain and stress. The minerals help with digestion and constipation too.
3. Alkamind Daily Omega-3
It’s so important to give your body a high-quality Omega-3 supplement. One of my favorites is the Alkamind Omega – 3 because it’s molecular distilled, organically filtered, and TRIPLE purified. It’s also free of heavy metals. Omega-3’s help fight inflammation, improve brain function, regulate healthy cholesterol and cardiovascular health.
4. Collagen (from fish scale)
Fish collagen peptides are known to have the best absorption and bioavailability due to their smaller particle sizes compared to other animal collagens, making them antioxidant powerhouses. Bioavailability is highly important since it largely determines the efficacy of any nutrient you ingest. Fish collagen is absorbed up to 1.5 times more efficiently into the body and has superior bioavailability over cow, beef, or chicken based collagens. Since it’s absorbed more efficiently and enters the bloodstream more quickly, it’s considered the best collagen source for medicinal purposes and nails, joints, & bone strengths. This is the brand I love & trust – WithinUs Naturals
