About this episode
In this episode we talk about our top 5 nutritional supplements, not weight loss supplements, these are nutritional supplements that are recommended for common deficiencies. First, we want to say we strongly believe that food should be first, meaning good food quality, healthy lifestyle habits ( listen to our podcast on The Foundations of a Healthy Lifestyle HERE ). THEN look to add supplements to support your diet. Disclaimer: These are not prescriptions as we are not medical professionals. The recommendations are based upon research, our education, experience working with clients and personal experience. We know there is a LOT of confusion around nutritional supplements supplements, so we are going to cover some of the common questions we get like: What are good brands? What are common symptoms/signs of deficiencies? What foods can help decrease nutritional deficiencies? What are recommended doses if I am deficient? If you have questions, just message us! Tip or trick: Liz talks about her new gadget for making protein coffee and mixing her reds and greens - This is the frother from Amazon. *Caution these things are powerful mix with caution :) don't have your cup super full unless you want the coffee tornado like I had!
