I believe the cornerstone of a “simply sweet” home is having a healthy home (and a healthier you)! But so often we see a healthy lifestyle as something difficult, a huge challenge and grand undertaking that is just too much to handle. But it doesn’t have to be this way. I believe the key to a healthier lifestyle is to make simple attainable goals and take small and simple steps toward achieving those goals.
For example, many of us don’t drink enough water, so that could be a good goal to start out with. And you don’t have to say, “I’m going to start drinking a gallon of water day!” Instead, start by saying, “I’m going to drink 8 ounces of water each morning.” Then after you’ve made this a habit for about a week, you can gradually increase your water intake from there.
Another way to help you to adopt healthy habits is to join the Nature Made®Healthy Habit Builder program. The program is free to sign up, and when you sign up, you enter your current health goal. From there, you will receive tips and articles to help you achieve your goal. So for example, I chose the goal of getting energized, and I immediately received my Day 1 email with 2 tips plus an article to read. (And when you sign up, you will also be entered to win $5000.)
And perhaps the simplest step you can take toward a healthier you is to take Nature Made® vitamins and supplements: An easy, convenient way to help your body get the nutritional support it needs every day, whether it be to support bone health, immune health or energy metabolism (helping convert food into energy).†
Nature Made® is the #1 Pharmacist Recommended brand for many key dietary supplement categories.*
Nature Made® has a variety of vitamins, minerals, and supplements (VMS) to help support nutritional gaps with your health goals in mind ranging from Digestive Support, Heart Health & Function, Energy Metabolism, Women’s Health and much more!†
The people at Nature Made® realize that your health goals are as unique as you are, and their variety of products ensure that everyone can find something to fill their unique needs.
Walmart is the perfect place to purchase Nature Made® vitamins and supplements. They are conveniently located in the healthcare section, near the pharmacy counter. And with Walmart’s everyday low prices, you never have to wait for a sale or coupon. It’s always a great time to stock up!
Now let’s briefly talk about some of the Nature Made® supplements I am currently using.
For starters, we have Nature Made® Prenatal Multi + DHA. I believe taking a multi-vitamin each day is very important. For someone like me, who doesn’t always eat well, it helps me to fill in those key nutritional gaps that I’m missing. And I also find that I have more energy and just have a greater sense of well being when I’m taking a multi-vitamin.
Currently I am trying to conceive, so for that reason I am taking a prenatal vitamin as my multi-vitamin. One thing I love about the Nature Made® prenatal is that it is a softgel vitamin, which makes it easy to swallow (and there’s no bad taste). And the dosage is just one softgel (not 2), which is a great convenience to me. (I’m not the greatest pill swallower in the world!)
The supplement is also a great source of many vitamins and nutrients. I love that it includes vitamin C for immunity, and it also has a complex of B vitamins like B6, B12, niacin, riboflavin, and folic acid. And in addition to the vitamins we all need, each softgel has 200 mg of DHA, which may help support fetal brain and eye development.
Next we have Nature Made® Digestive Probiotics. (They are available at Walmart Supercenters.) A poor diet, stress, and other health issues can often lead to digestive irregularity and discomfort. And while there are yogurts and other foods out there, containing probiotics, I find that taking a good supplement is a much easier way to get those in each day.
Nature Made® Probiotics: Nature Made® Advanced Dual Action Probiotic has been clinically studied and provides dual support to both your small and large intestine for comprehensive coverage to help support digestive balance and healthy gut flora.†
I like this supplement because it is convenient and easy to take. These are a soft capsule, and you just have to take two once a day (one for the small intestine, and one for the large intestine).
The two capsules give you dual action support. The capsule for the small intestine contains lactobacillus plantarum, which works to help relieve occasional gas, bloating, and abdominal discomfort. And the capsule for the large intestine contains bifidobacterium lactis, which works to relieve constipation and irregularity.
Finally we have Nature Made® Hair, Skin, and Nails. As I surf, the internet, I am always hearing stories about Hair, Skin, and Nails supplements, and I’m sure everyone out there has seen a number of “before and after photos” on Instagram from those who have used a hair, skin, and nails supplement.
As I was shopping for supplements the other day, it seemed like the perfect time to try them for myself. While I truly believe our beauty comes from within, I know that I feel happier and more energetic when I feel good about the way I look. Having great hair, skin, and nails is certainly a great contributor to looking good each day.
The Nature Made® brand is in tablet form, and it is actually a strawberry lemonade flavored tablet that dissolves in your mouth. (Talk about easy to take!) Two tablets contain 100% of your daily value of Vitamin C for collagen synthesis. They also contain biotin, which has a number of other uses and indications above and beyond the hair, skin, and nails use.
