100% the best switch. I've had to buy the cheapest kinds of bread for a while and didn't realize how much it was impacting my health - and how much worse the cheaper ones were for my body! Not to mention how much better a nice whole wheat bread and t...

I loved pumpkin seeds before my diagnosis, but I love them so much more now! Protein packed, great source of iron, good as a snack and essential fat to put on literally anything - and I do.

Also another great choice to put on just about anything. Great source for dietary fiber, omega-3s and proteins. Flax seeds also aid with systemic inflammation and insulin management. (Ps. I love this brand. I always know my money is going to the righ...

Superfood. Toast, grilled cheese, on it's own, as a dip, guacamole, in sushi. Avocado is top tier, I couldn't do it without her.

Amazing for lymphatic drainage and skincare! Ever since I started using targeted products for my skin and locking it in with a face roll after, my skin has been so much healthier and nurished. Highly recommend.
Jade Roller

Been the best skincare switch for me, personally. Nothing has been able to control the excess oiliness on my skin, but this cleanser day and night. I also really appreciate the skincare routine it's given me as it's super relaxing <3

Using niacinamide serum at night for oil control has been a huge game changer! I love applying my serum and following it up with my jade roller to make sure the product absorbs completely.

Day and night lightweight moistrizer. A little goes a long way and it helps to create a great base to allow the jade roller to glide across my skin and aid in draining my lymphatic system.

Native is hands down the best, safest deodorant I've ever used. With PMOS, I have terrible sweating issues and it makes me incredibly self conscious. Putting on a thick coating of Native deodorant at the beginning of the day leaves me smelling delcio...
