Let’s talk about my newest favorite supplements and why EVERYONE can benefit from this. It’s simple. Do you eat food? You need Essentialzyme-4.
Young Living has four different enzyme supplements but I’m going to tell you specifically about this one because it is the most universal and complete. (To summarize the differences in the 4 different enzyme supplements YL has: Two of them are vegetarian options and two are made from animal products. One of each is a quick release meant to be taken at mealtime and the other of each is meant to be taken once a day, preferably in the morning.) So. What’s it for? It’s for breaking down food! Protease, Lipase, Cellulase, are all enzymes contained in this supplement which help break down their counterpoint foods. Protease breaks down protein. Lipase breaks down lipids (aka fats), cellulase breaks down… yep, cellulose (aka plant matter, aka veggies). Essentailzyme-4 also contains amylase, peptidase, acid protease, phytase, bromelain, papain and an essential oil blend designed to support digestion (anise, ginger, rosemary, tarragon and fennel). After the age of 25, our bodies slow down their natural production of enzymes. Less enzymes, means a lessened ability to break down the food we eat and get the benefit of its nutrients. It also means that uncomfortable feeling and bloating and a sluggish digestive system. Want to do a cool experiment? Make 2 bowls of oatmeal. Bust open your E4 capsules and mix into one of the bowls. See what happens after 30 minutes!

Longevity is designed to be a daily antioxidant maintenance program to protect the body. Antioxidants are must-haves to fight off free radicals that disrupt and destroy cells. Free radicals are unstable atoms that can damage cells, causing illness and aging. Free radicals are linked to aging and a host of diseases. So antioxidants daily are an important part of fighting free radicals in the body. This supplement helps fight damaging effects from diet, aging and environment. The precision delivery softgel releases in the intestine (not the stomach where acids breakdown the constituents) for optimal absorption and minimal aftertaste. Gary used to speak about Longevity, saying that it was a MUST TAKE DAILY for anyone... #cuzFrankincense.
Longevity is a fat-soluble antioxidant and while Ningxia Red is primarily a water-soluble antioxidant and we need both! What is the difference between Ningxia Red and Longevity? Well, both are powerful antioxidants… but the only similar ingredient is Orange essential oil. Longevity includes Orange, Thyme, Clove and Frankincense essential oils. -THYME: Studies** show that thyme essential oil maintains DHA levels in the brain, liver, heart, and kidneys of aging subjects. Low DHA levels are associated with a loss of focus and memory, unclear thinking, and mood alterations. Test subjects receiving a daily dose of thyme oil had higher levels of DHA than those who did not take the supplement. -CLOVE: Nature’s strongest antioxidant and richest source of eugenol. (Check out your Essential Oil Pocket reference for all the cool benefits) - ORANGE: Contains 90 percent d-limonene, which promotes healthy liver function. (Thats why i love adding Orange vitality to my water with Lemon Vitality daily) -FRANKINCENSE: supports cell health and immune function. (Google the benefits and you'll be sold on Frankincense in your daily life, just like I was!) ______________ **here is the scientific study links for those who love to dig deeper like me: • Basch E, et al.

Super Cal Plus is a supplement that is a must for people who want to age gracefully. (Don't we all?!?) Why do you need Super Cal Plus in your life? It promotes healthy bones by supporting the body’s ability to resorb bone tissue and deposit new bone tissue. What magic is this? No magic, just good science – thank you Young Living. Ladies as we age our progesterone levels drop and thus we experience bone density loss, so the right blend of calcium, magnesium, and vitamins D & K is vital for long term bone health and the prevention of osteoporosis and osteoarthritis.
Super Cal Plus supports the structure and integrity of our bones and teeth with a synergistic (definition: when two or more substances combine to work together to produce results even better than they could by themselves – THINK: STRONGER TOGETHER) blend of bioavailable (definition: the quantity or fraction of the ingested dose that is absorbed by our body) calcium, magnesium, vitamins D and K and other trace minerals. That’s a big deal and it gets even better. The essential oils infused into Super Cal Plus are a part of what helps our bodies to absorb the nutrients more efficiently. Thank you Idaho Black Spruce, Black Spruce, Copaiba, Vetiver, and Peppermint. *Probably the most common question The Farmacist is asked about Super Cal Plus is why is there so little Calcium in it? There are several reasons:
Minerals are specific kinds of nutrients that your body needs in order to function properly. Simply put the human body requires different amounts of each mineral to stay healthy. Unfortunately, with our current food sources, soil depletion, and our diets, many of us aren't getting all those minerals in the right amounts causing deficiencies. A mineral deficiency occurs when your body doesn’t obtain or absorb the required amount of a mineral. Mineral deficiencies can lead to a variety of health problems, such as weak bones, fatigue, or a decreased immune system.
The symptoms of a mineral deficiency depend upon which nutrient the body lacks. Possible symptoms include: constipation, bloating, or abdominal pain decreased immune system diarrhea irregular heart beat loss of appetite muscle cramping nausea and vomiting numbness or tingling in the extremities poor concentration slow social or mental development in children weakness or tiredness In short many of us are actually deficient in some of the minerals we need! Even if you are eating what is considered a healthy diet filled with veggies and fruits. The soil in which our fruits and veggies are grown is lacking in nutrients and cannot produce food that is nutrient dense. These mineral can be hard to source unless you have an inland sea where the minerals are concentrated. Young Living sources these minerals direct from Salt Lake. It contains calcium and magnesium which balance one another and help support the cardiovascular and skeletal systems. Iron which supports delivering oxygen from lungs throughout the body. Zinc and Selenium which support the immune system. Molybdenum for enzyme function .... Why would you chose Young Living mineral supplement? Mineral Essence contains over 60 minerals and is an ionic form of minerals which is much more absorbable in the human body. Why is it in a tincture? The liquid form of this tincture can be absorbed by the body faster, has a longer shelf life, more concentrated and can be easier to take for children and or people who have issues swallowing pills.

I'm adding this one to my Monthly Wellness Box this month. Who is with me? Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for BRAIN and HEART health. Um...sounds kinda important, yes? Pretty sure we all want to keep those things in tip top shape! Omega-3’s also supports the body’s proper inflammatory responses, reducing unnecessary inflammation. Fish oil supplements are a great source of Omega-3’s, and did you know the O3’s in our brains are the same as the O3’s in fish oil? Our bodies have a really easy job using fish oil to feed our brains because it doesn’t need to do any sort of conversion to make it work.
How many of you have ever burped up fish oil supplements before? YUCK! This is a sign of rancidity. Fish oil is highly unstable- it goes rancid in your stomach after just 40 minutes! This is why you burp it up. Uh... yuck. Most fish oil out on the market is rancid. So what can be done about this? --Get the best quality fish oil you can. --Look for some helpful additions to the fish oil that help keep it stable, prevent it from becoming rancid, and aid absorption. The fish oil that YL uses in OmegaGize is molecularly distilled. Molecular distillation ensures the highest quality of fish oil by removing toxins from the oil that are released from the fish during distillation. Many fish oil producers infuse their fish oil with Vitamin E to help prevent the fish oil from going rancid. But YL also adds Clove EO to their blend to help with this! Clove is at the very top of the ORAC scale (remember ORAC is a scale for reading the levels of antioxidants in food) at over 1 million! German Chamomile and Spearmint round out the special EO blend in OmegaGize. German Chamomile further supports the body’s proper inflammatory responses and Spearmint helps cut down on any fishy burps that might sneak through. In addition to their individual benefits, adding this combination of EOs to OmegaGize increases its absorption rate by 15X! One last thing: in addition to the amazing benefits of fish oil, OmegaGize also give you 237% of the daily recommended dose of Vitamin D. Vitamin D fortifies the immune system and contributes to heart health. We need Vitamin D as we get older and during the winter months when we don’t see the sun as much. This is seriously some amazing stuff! Want to know more about the sourcing and the sardines that the fish oil is distilled from? Check out this article! http://www.yleotraining.com/docs/OmegaBlue.pdf Gut health for kiddos is super important! We alllll have enough kid struggles in our lives. Their little tummies don’t need to be one of them. We’ve all heard about probiotics. How they crowd out the bad bacteria and allow the gut to flourish with good bacteria. To keep that good bacteria around we can do two things.
1. Take a probiotic every day. OR 2. Take a probiotic every day WITH a PREbiotic. What’s so special about a PREbiotic? It feeds the good bacteria!!! MightyPro has a super special probiotic formula made up of 8 BILLION cultures in each packet, just for kids. And it has wolfberry fiber as the PREbiotic component to feed those good bacterial cultures so they can grow. Fun Fact: Did you know that a single bacteria cell can divide every 20 minutes? If it’s fed and allowed to flourish, it can become BILLIONS of cells in just 12 hours! Good luck bad bacteria. Byeeeeee. Bonus: Kids should take one per day, but adults can enjoy too. Two packets will contain 16 Billion cultures which is just 2 Billion less than the adult version (Life 9). Or do the grown up version of Life9 and add in the Sulfurzyme powder with its probiotics! Did I mention it tastes like a pixie stick?! YUMMMMM! Who is totally getting these awesome kiddo supplement? Just remember it takes between 3-6 months to really change the gut biome, so be consistent with any supplement you take! Super B
Did anyone else imagine Superman with a big B on his chest?! Raise your hand! Seriously though, Young Living has this amazing multi-vitamin supplement SUPER B which combines all eight B vitamins, including Orgen-FA, a natural folate source, with Nutmeg essential oil and bioavailable chelated minerals. It is a comprehensive source of the B vitamins essential for good health including the following: · Thiamine (vitamin B11) · Riboflavin (vitamin B2) · Niacin (vitamin B3) · Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) · Vitamin B12(as methyl cobalamin) · Biotin (vitamin B7) · Folate · Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) · Calcium · Magnesium · Zinc SUPER B also includes minerals that aid in the assimilation and metabolism of B vitamins. Did you know Vitamin B isn’t stored in the body so it must be replenished daily? Sustain energy levels and boost your mood! B vitamins are particularly important during times of stress when reserves are depleted. Although research has shown that mega doses of B vitamins are not healthy, it has been known that the diets of many Americans do not provide the recommended amounts of B vitamins essential for normal functions of immune response. In the summertime, its great to up the vitamin b intake (because thiamine, aka B1, is a fab natural repellent)! When many B vitamins are combined at once in the stomach, it can cause fermentation, resulting in stomach upset. To avoid this, Super B uses a special formulation process to isolate the various vitamins so that they are released at different times. Proprietary Super B™ blend consists of PABA (Short for Para-Amino-Benzoic Acid, an antioxidant that is considered by some as a B complex vitamin, and sometimes called vitamin Bx) and Nutmeg seed oil. Ingredients: Please refer to label on product bottle for complete information Directions: Take 2 tablets daily with a meal. If taken on an empty stomach, a person may experience a temporary niacin flush/warming sensation, a normal reaction that may last up to an hour. Speaking of Tinctures....
