      Hey @iryna_klevetenko ,

      Sometimes pediatricians could prescribe these supplements as a preventive measure. The best is to ask your pediatrician of course, but here are some reasons why iron and vitamin D could be recommended. When your child

      Hey @Annie ,

      Reply to HDL above 100

      Hey @dxb,

      Functional Adaptation
      Elevations in HDL and LDL are often a sign of “something”. Small elevations might simply be a functional adaptation to lifestyle choices.

      For example: a diet heavy in animal proteins and (healthy) fats can cause LDL and HDL to rise. Animal proteins in nature are almost always accompanied by fats. When we eat…

      Reply to Protein powders

      Hey @Annie

      There are protein powders you could use. I like the protein powders from Designs for Health. You can find their products also on Fullscript (just click here!)where you can order them with a discount. I often use them when I’m doing a detox program. I like the way they saturate me as well.

      Although flavour is very personal, I like…

      Hey @iryna_klevetenko ,

      Hey @LAK ,

      Many factors could play into the advice your friend has been given, so it’s hard to reply to that part. I can however clarify the relationship between the MTHFR mutation – or SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism).

      Elevations in homocysteine are considered as a risk factor for clotting. Homocysteine is normally broken down to Methionine…

      Reply to Iron Infusion in Third Trimester

      Hey @healthyliving99

      First of all, exciting news! Congratulations!

      Since your pregnant you have to share your nutrients with your new family member. It is quite normal for ferritin (the storage form of iron) to drop during the third trimester in regular pregnancies. For a good interpertation of lab values it’s important to know the reference… Read more

      Reply to Prenatal Vitamins

      Hey @Inga-55

      I like the products of Thorne since they are third-party tested and don’t use binders and fillers in their supplements. This prenatal vitamin is from them. Best would be to consume this multivitamin with food.

      Ginger can help with nauseau in some pregnant women. Unfortunatelly not with everyone. You should at least have consumed it…

      Reply to Products Ingredients

      Hey @Inga-55

      Good question! Although it’s hard to evaluate every ingredient on the labels, I will help you understand some of them so you can make more educated choices! When choosing a good product I like to answer these two questions as well as possible:

      1. Are there ingredients on the list that we know of that are harmful?

      2. How well are…
