5 Action Steps to Maximize the Power of Your Antioxidants

1. Starting today, set a  regular sleep time and stick to it even on the weekends! Sleep disruption directly impacts antioxidant production!
2. Reduce and/or eliminate artificial and refined sugars. Replace with natural sugars found in  berries of every color.
3. Start incorporating more spices and foods that are rich in cysteine and the essential and non-essential amino acids.
4. Check your nutritional status! Did you know there's a safe, convenient and affordable test that you can do at home measure your essential and non-essential amino acids, oxidative stress, malabsorption, dysbiosis and detoxification markers? (schedule a conversation with me )
5. Manage your personal stress. Create (and stick to!) a morning and evening routine that invigorates in the morning and relaxes at night. Need some help? Schedule a conversation with me.
