I’m telling you. This combo is powerful at stopping a urinary tract infection from brewing into something more serious that requires antibiotics.With travel and the stress of the launch of B Better, combined with a lack of hydration (I haven’t been carrying around a water bottle), my immune system for sure took a hit and allowed a brewing infection.I brought all of my “first aid” supplements with me on this trip, but I did not expect a brewing UTI… haven’t had one since my 20s. So what did I do? I researched health food companies in my area and called...

Unfortunately, accidents happen. Broken bones happen. So I wanted to share the following protocol adapted from Chris Kresser which provides specific nutrients to help speed up the bone healing process.
