MyoCalm
Muscle cramps and spasms can happen to anyone. It tends to be a reason we wake up stiff and sore or have trouble sleeping. Sometimes we experience these after exercise or after long periods of sitting.
Common causes of muscle cramping include dehydration, sleep deprivation, mineral depletion and electrolyte imbalance. Make sure you’re are getting plenty of rest and drinking your water but also talk to us about MyoCalm.
Myocalm is a supplement made by Metagenics. It is made of a specialized blend of calcium, magnesium and herbs designed to play a role in the contraction and relaxation of muscles. It’ll help relieve minor muscle pain without the adverse side effects of prescription muscle relaxers and over-the-counter pain relievers.
As a Metagenics product, it contains only natural ingredients, is gluten-free and is backed by a quality guarantee.
Vitamin D3
Vitamin D is most commonly known as the “sunshine vitamin.” This essential nutrient is necessary for healthy bones and muscles, heart health, and is linked to improved immune function.
Spending just 10 minutes outside on a sunny day helps the body create vitamin D however, in Illinois the sun is not strong enough for about half of the year to produce vitamin D from sun exposure. So, what can you do?
There are a few foods that contain vitamin D, like fatty fish and eggs, and there are foods that are fortified with vitamin D such as, milk, orange juice and some cereals. However, these sources only provide minimal amounts of vitamin D and it’s much easier to close this nutrient gap with supplementation.
MultiVitamins
Multivitamins are a great way to make sure your body is getting the essential vitamins and minerals it needs. Even with a proper diet filled with a variety of fruits and vegetables we can still be missing proper amounts of B vitamins, vitamin A, vitamin D, and minerals such as calcium and magnesium. A good quality multivitamin can help bridge that gap in nutrition and help us live healthier lives.
Why take a Multivitamin supplement…What’s it good for?
Multivitamins help ensure our bodies are getting what we need. As we get older our bodies naturally have more difficulty absorbing nutrients from food. It’s also good to consider a multivitamin if you’ve eliminated certain food groups in your diet. Dairy and grains are good sources of calcium and vitamin D. Red meat is a great source of Iron. Not a fan of veggies? Well that’s where a lot of essential vitamins come from.

Probiotics
We do a lot to maintain our health. We eat right, we exercise, we get adjusted and we take our supplements. One supplement that you'll hear us talk a lot about is the probiotic line we carry. Not many people consider tak
ing a probiotic daily but did you know, according to many researchers, 70% of our immune system is located in our gut?
Why take a Probiotic supplement…What’s it good for?
A probiotic supplement can help maintain a healthy balance of ‘good’ gut bacteria which helps improve digestion and boosts the immune system. The immune system works with the digestive system to help protect from harmful pathogens and viruses that we come into contact with daily.
