Woop! Love me a delivery day! No ads, I just personally love their products. Others are available.
I try not to load up too much on supplements but some are just too good to miss out on, especially with perimenopause kicking my ass!
Collagen for my hair, skin and nails, helping me to keep my youthful looks. 😆 But in all seriousness, I’ve noticed a big difference in all three since I started taking them and backwards progress when I run out.
Creatine has a huge amount of evidence behind it now (and an increasing amount specifically for women of a certain age ahem). 👀 I find it helps with mental clarity a lot, which is something I’ve really struggled with during perimenopause.
Electrolytes have been a game changer. A few months ago I was finding myself constantly thirsty. I simply couldn’t drink enough water daily and as a result was constantly on the toilet. After doing some research, I decided to try an electrolyte and what a game changer!
I still drink around 2 litres of water a day - a healthy amount, more if the weather is hot or on a hard training day (not many of those lately cos thanks Covid but one day…). But I find that it’s enough with just one scoop of delicious Tropical flavour). I’m no longer always thirsty and my toilet trips are waaaaaaay less frequent. 😆
Inulin fibre is a new one for me. I know that even on my best days, I struggle to get enough fibre from my diet and so I’m hoping this might help.
Also gutted that my most fave chocolate orange protein bites were out of stock. I could literally live off those! 🤣
As with all new supplements, I’ll be starting with a very small dose to allow my body to adjust and building from there to find my sweet spot.
I also don’t recommend starting a new supplement without getting professional advice, especially if you have any health conditions that might be affected.
I always use as I trust their products, ingredients and ethics. Their tagline of “Keep it simple. Do it properly. Make it accessible.”, really resonates with me.
What supplements do you swear by? Let me know in the comments. **t
