Busting Common Myths About Supplements: What You Need to Know
Are you overwhelmed by the sheer number of supplement options on the market? Confused about which ones are worth your money and which are just clever marketing? You’re not alone! There are many myths about supplements that can make it hard to know what's best for your health. In this blog, I’m going to debunk some common misconceptions and introduce you to exciting new products that can help you achieve your wellness goals without breaking the bank. Let’s dive in!
Myth 1: Expensive Supplements are Always the Best
Many people believe that higher-priced supplements are superior in quality. However, this isn't always true. Affordable options like LiveGood products undergo rigorous third-party analysis to ensure their quality and effectiveness. Have you checked the analysis certification for the supplements you buy from Amazon or other stores recently? Surprisingly, many products lack certifications because their ingredients aren't organically sourced or thoroughly tested.
Myth 2: Proprietary Blends in Supplements mean you’re being given the BEST of the BEST always - Why Transparency Matters
When it comes to supplements, have you ever wondered what "proprietary blend" really means?
What is a Proprietary Blend?
A proprietary blend is a unique combination of ingredients created by manufacturers. While the ingredients are listed, the exact amounts of those ingredients typically do not follow and remain undisclosed (even if you reach out and ask), often you’ll be told it’s to protect the company's secret formula.
Why Should You Care?
Transparency is crucial to knowing what you’re putting into your body. Without detailed information, you can’t be sure about the efficacy or safety of the product is.
Here's Why It Matters:
Content Analysis: Understanding the precise amounts of each ingredient helps you gauge the supplement's effectiveness. In a lot of cases, companies will say a product contains a popular XYZ ingredient but they’ll actually only put a very SMALL amount of it in their “proprietary blend” and the rest will be supported by other ingredients. But, you won’t know this if their proprietary blend and amount for each ingredient is NOT listed- thus TRANSPARENCY matters!
Ingredient Quality: Knowing the source and quality of ingredients ensures you're getting the best for your health.
Provenance: Ingredients from reputable sources are crucial for safety and effectiveness.
Laboratory Tests: Third-party testing provides unbiased verification of the supplement’s quality and purity.
Don't settle for less – demand quality and transparency in your supplements! Choose products that prioritize your health with verified ingredients and clear labeling. The company I represent prioritizes transparency. All our products undergo rigorous third-party analysis, contain certifcates of analysis for each of their products and any info that isn’t available on the website can always be easily obtained by just reaching out to me- so you know exactly what you’re getting.
Introducing Our Four Brand New Products
In the past 40 days (when this article was written-more may have been released if you’re reading this down the road), we've launched four powerful new products that have been getting a lot of attention and incredible feedback. If you haven't tried these yet, be sure to add them to your next order. You will love them!
1. Whey Protein Isolate with Colostrum
Optimize Your Lean Muscle
Maintaining the health and composition of lean muscle mass becomes more challenging with age. Many individuals fall short in their protein intake, contributing to issues like premature aging, weakened muscles, reduced mobility, and low energy. LiveGood's Whey Protein Isolate is the highest quality COMPLETE protein on the market. Not only do you get a full 20 grams of advanced, clean, healthy protein, but also a full serving of all 9 essential amino acids. Plus, we've added grass-fed bovine colostrum (20% IgG 149 mg per serving) and digestive enzymes (Amylase, Lactase, Lipase, and Protease) to maximize nutrient absorption, ensure optimal gut health, and support your immune system. Our delicious chocolate flavor, made with organic cacao, can be mixed with water or blended with your favorite smoothie for a healthy supplement any time of day!
2. LEAN - Body Composition Improvement Formula
Beyond Weight Loss
Many people measure their weight management success by the number on the scale. However, maintaining a healthy weight requires more than just shedding pounds. While diet and exercise are crucial, weight management goes far beyond these factors. Most weight management products focus on suppressing appetite, which might help short-term but isn't sustainable and doesn't address the root issues. That's why we created the world's first and only Body Composition Improvement Formula: LEAN!
3. Hormonal Balance - for Women
No Two Women Are the Same
Hormonal balance can be akin to walking a tightrope. The female hormonal cycle is complex and often misunderstood. While symptoms like hot flashes, menstrual cramps, bloating, mood swings, and general discomfort are common, every woman's experience is unique. Fortunately, certain dietary ingredients can drastically improve these symptoms naturally. LiveGood's Hormonal Balance for Women features the highest quality, scientifically sourced plant-based extracts to improve progesterone and estrogen fluctuations, reducing the severity of symptoms. Feel the difference with LiveGood's Hormonal Balance for Women.
4. Children’s Multi-Vitamin Gummies
Support Growing Bodies
Raising a child is hard. Getting a child to eat healthy foods is even harder. Nowadays, predatory food companies are marketing artificial food ingredients to our kids to make them attractive and even addicting! This is scary stuff! So parents and loved ones have to take extra precautions to make sure our kids are getting the nutrients their growing bodies need and they are NOT getting from the foods they eat. Why are 30% of children overweight or obese? Why do they lack energy? Why are they sicker than ever before in history? It almost always comes down to the quality of the food and the ingredients that are in our food supply. And worse is that the vitamin companies have not done a good enough job formulating for kids’ specific needs, until now.
The LiveGood Children’s Organic Multi-Vitamin Gummy is kid and parent approved! It is tasty so you do not have to fight that battle every day. It is USDA Certified Organic. It contains only the highest quality nutrients in the most bioavailable forms. Finally, they are third-party tested extensively for contaminants like metals, mold/yeast/bacteria and pesticides to ensure they are clean and pure.
