Cancer Treatment takes a lot out of you. Changes your life. Your body needs some care no more than ever. These are places I have been, in Canada that take your health and wellbeing into account along with spectacular view. Give yourslef some love and grace.
I was diagnosed (via a scalp biopsy) with Androgenetic Alopecia that was triggered by an episode of Telogen Effluvium. I've been dealing with hair loss for about 2 years now, but I have finally started to see serious regrowth in the last few months. I have cats, so I cannot take minoxidil (and I didn't want to have to take such a heavy pharmaceutical for the rest of my life to maintain my hair growth). I did start taking a low dose of spironolactone as prescribed by my derm as well as using all of these products consistently. In addition to the scalp and hair treatments, I also massively increased my protein and omega-3 intake. If you are also on a hair loss journey, I wish you all the best and I hope something here helps you as much as it has me. Losing hair can be emotionally devastating it was intensely traumatizing for me. Take good care of yourself and know that it is possible to see results with consistency <3
I'm on a liquid diet but these recommendations would be helpful for anyone wanting to boost their protein intake during cancer treatment and reduce chemo side effects!!

I have spent the last 3 years on a quest to improve my PCOS symptoms. Consistency is hard, but below is a regmine I landed on that has led to the biggest reduction in my symptoms. These supplements combined with a gentle workout routine has helped me lose weight, kick cravings, majorly reduce hairloss, and feel better overall. Not everyone has access to the funds to take all of these supplements so I have organized in what I believe to be the most important and then the nice to haves. Take these changes slow to be sustainable change. Don't go buying every single thing reccomended thinking you will do it all at once all day everyday. Start small, build up…this will help you ID what actually helps you. Give everything six months.Don't be afraid to explore and find different options, but the supplements listed from WholesomeStory are specifically designed for folks with PCOS and infertility. They have the best combos to help. Something is better than nothing though, find what works for you!Most importantly, remember: FOOD IS NOT YOUR ENEMY AND RESTRICTING YOUR DIET AND BEING FEARFUL OF FOOD IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU. All it idoes is increase your anxiety and stress around eating, which elevates your cortisol…this just leads to more damage for your body and makes things worse than any particular food would

natural herbal supplements for immune system health, gut health, mental health, and healing hormonal & inflammatory acne :-) these systems are ALL inextricably linked!! so supporting one system will inevitably support the other systems and i truly recommend everyone to take all majority if not all of the supplements i recommend. these recommendations are only of the highest quality, as it is EXTREMELY important to use only high-quality, organic supplements, i know it can be more pricy, but the cheaper ones often have a lot of junk in them and are not as potent in the supplement, thus making it ineffective. some of the best brands that might not be organic but are still good quality, and most affordable are “nature's way," “solaray”, and “NOW”
