Over the next couple of months, I’ll be on-the-go for what seems like non-stop. We all have periods where we can be very busy and are overrun by our schedules – it’s during these periods, that we often feel stressed, rundown, and just plain exhausted. Being diligent about overall wellbeing is crucial but especially during times when our bodies are subjected to more stress than usual. When you’re traveling for a long period of time, you’re not always in control of your environment or sleep schedule.
Over the last couple of years, I’ve experimented with different facets of the wellness industry and have had an especially large focus on trying different supplements. NatureWise has a large array of high-quality supplements that are my go-to while I’m on the road.
Combine a good supplement regimen with sleep & exercise – and you can really minimize the impact stress has on the body. This is my go-to arsenal of supplements while on the road:
UBINQUINOL
Ubiquinol has a key role in producing energy is provides a myriad of health benefits. It helps absorb oxidative stress and free radicals by providing strong antioxidant support (essential when traveling). “ Energy Production: Ubiquinol is a natural coenzyme that plays a crucial role in 95% of production of energy used by organs in the body. Ubiquinol levels may drop due to age, stress levels, and cholesterol-lowering statin drug therapy.” It also has anti-aging benefits — it increases stamina and energy levels, and supports the immune and nervous systems.
I love the NatureWise Ubinquinol because it’s 100% natural, Non-GMO, and Gluten-Free. I have higher energy levels and alertness when I take Ubiquinol daily. On days when I’m traveling, I’ll take two. Ubiquinol is a great additional to anyone’s supplement regimen who is looking for immune support, increased energy levels, and overall protection again oxidative stress.
BLACK SEED OIL
Black Seed Oil has been used for centuries in Eastern medicine for its natural anti-inflammatory properties. Stress can wreak havoc on our bodies – specifically with the hormone cortisol that helps control our inflammatory responses. Chronic stress is thought to increase inflammation and even change the gene activity of immune cells. High inflammation in the body can lead to a slew of health problems. “Black Seed Oil is considered to be a “Super Antioxidant” because it suppresses temporary inflammation associated with activity while maintaining joint health and flexibility.” I take two black seed oil pills a day -– being also that I have arthritic pain that tends to be intensified after spending hours on a plane. Taking Black Seed Oil consistently has helped significantly with my swollen joint pain and overall inflammation.
ORGANIC FLAXSEED OIL
Flaxseed Oil offers a large array of health benefits like support in brain health, heart health, immune support, and healthy skin, hair, and nails. It also contains fiber to prevent digestive issues and gut health. Gut health is something that can be completely thrown out of whack when traveling because we’re removed from our daily routines and tend to eat foods that are irregular from our typical everyday diet. Studies have also suggested that Flaxseed oil is chock full of antioxidant properties and compounds that help reduce the risk of cancer. “Each serving of Naturewise Organic Flaxseed Oil provides 720 mg of ALA, an essential omega-3 fatty acid that the body converts into EPA and DHA, offering a plant-based, sustainable alternative to fish oils.” I love the NatureWise Organic Flaxseed Oil because Flaxseed Oil is 100% natural, organic, and non-GMO!
ORAL HEALTH PROBIOTICS
Traveling can sometimes make it difficult to practice good oral hygiene. Good dental health can actually prevent other health issues in the body. Strong research that suggests oral probiotics can help combat invasive oral bacteria and boosts immunity for optimal dental and upper respiratory health. “Oral bacteria can also influence upper respiratory health. BLIS K12™ has been clinically studied in both children and adults and shown to significantly boost ear, nose, and throat immune defenses.” I’m totally guilty of not always making my oral health routine a priority if I’ve been sitting on a plane or in a car for too long. These NatureWise Oral Health Probiotics are a total game-changer – while I’m on the go, I like to take a quick swig of mouthwash and then I’ll chew on one of these twice a day.
