Prior to working with Betsy Markle I had tried all different types of supplements expensive & inexpensive. I never really felt different when I took them or saw any benefit so it was always an expense that was hard to justify. When I did my first nutritional consultation with Betsy I explained to her that I wasn’t that much of a believer in supplements. She recommended a multi vitamin that she thought I should at the very least be taking. After a month or so I started to notice that I felt a little bit better (i.e., more energy, less cravings).
I spoke w/Betsy about this and asked her if she felt that I should be taking additional supplements. She then recommended that I take a fish oil supplement. My stomach is very sensitive and I was nervous about fish oil. A good tip if you have sensitivity when taking fish oil is to freeze them.
I had problems in other areas of my health that Betsy helped me with by recommending Probiotics. They help me in a number of ways. They are great since they create the good bacteria in your stomach. Kind of like having a lot of yogurt but better for you. This usually helps women to avoid getting yeast infections too which is a major plus!
So…I now take the following supplements and never miss a day.
- Ortho Multi: 2/day
- Ultra Omega-3: 2/day
- Probiotics (8 Billion): 1 at bedtime
I feel that each of these supplements aid in keeping me healthy. I think that you will notice the difference when you take high quality supplements & the one’s that are right for you. Betsy is great at not overloading you and tries to work with your budget so that you can at least start with taking what might be most important to your health. You also have the benefit of finding out which supplements Betsy recommends for any issues that you may be having. The benefits from the supplements that I take include; no more breakouts, more energy, less cravings, clear thoughts (less brain fog), less stomach aches (especially when I’m adhering to a gluten & soy free diet), less colds.
We spend so much money on eating out or getting our cars washed that I’m surprised more people don’t put their health as top priority. There is little to enjoy when you don’t have your health! I think we understand this more & more as we get older.
