"Benefits -Reduces stress and anxiety, restoring a calm mental state -Contains Suntheanine®, a pure form of L-theanine, produced via a patented enzymatic process resulting in 100% pure L-isomer theanine -Suntheanine is the most clinically studied L-theanine -Delicious tropical fruit-flavoured chewable tablets Feature Summary L-theanine is an amino acid found naturally in tea. It has been shown to exert a calming effect on the brain, triggering the production of alpha brain waves associated with an awake-relaxed state, and decreasing beta brain waves associated with feelings of restlessness and nervousness. L-theanine influences levels of the neurotransmitters dopamine, serotonin, norepinephrine, and glutamate and is also metabolized into gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter that is key to relaxation and memory. L-theanine can help to temporarily promote relaxation and improve feelings of stress. In one study, a group of 50 female subjects, aged 18–22 years, were divided into a high-anxiety and a low-anxiety group. They received either water (as a control) or a solution containing 50 mg or 200 mg of L-theanine, and their brain waves were measured for 60 minutes afterwards. Compared to controls, the group receiving 200 mg of L-theanine had a significant increase in alpha brain waves, indicating a relaxation effect. Similar results were seen in another clinical trial where 35 healthy young volunteers received 50 mg of L-theanine and had elevated alpha brain wave activity for 105 minutes afterwards."

"Creatine is one of the most well-researched supplements for improving strength, power, and overall training performance. It helps your muscles produce energy more efficiently, supports lean muscle gain, and enhances recovery between workouts. Beyond the gym, creatine also supports brain health by improving cellular energy in the brain—this can help with focus, mental clarity, and resilience under stress. Creatine naturally increases total body water inside muscle cells, which is a good thing: it improves hydration at the cellular level, supports muscle function, and contributes to a fuller, healthier look. It’s safe for long-term use, requires no loading phase, and works best when taken consistently. Drink water regularly for optimal results."

"in 8 ounces of water or milk alternative This beef based protein is a great source of amino acids that you might be lacking over the holidays (see vegan option below). I like the vanilla one, but there's also chocolate or unflavoured. If you're looking to lose and maintain your weight, and ensure your blood sugar stay's regulated, this is my go-to protein powder. It's best mixed in a blender, but can be mixed in a shaker cup (shake well). "

"Digestive Enzymes - these little guys help you break down you meal for better nutrient absorption. If you get the after-meal bloat, gas, heartburn, exhaustion or just feeling generally unwell after your meals, this will be your friend. Best taken with meals you have to chew (not soups or smoothies) and containing at least 4oz of protein (just under the size of a regular deck of cards) If you're on any PPI's (for heartburn/GERD think Nexium or Prevacid) or Antacids (Tums) these could decrease the effects. If you have a recently diagnosed stomach ulcer, do not take this as it could be irritating."

Additional notes

"30–45 minutes before bedtime. If you struggle to fall asleep or stay asleep these little gel capsules are a life saver (especially if you're traveling and not sleeping in your own bed). Everyone requires a different amount (some people do best with 1, 2, or 3) so the dose may vary (We're all individual). If 1 makes you feel groggy, try 2 the next night, etc. (groggy doesn't always mean it's too high of a dose). Even if you sleep 9 hours, but don't wake feeling rested, these might be the helpful solution you need. Do not take if you're taking prescription sleeping pills. "

"This beef based protein is a great source of amino acids that you might be lacking over the holidays (see vegan option below). I love the chocolate one on it's own and the vanilla one for backing, but there's also unflavoured. If you're looking to lose and maintain your weight, and ensure your blood sugar stay's regulated, this is my go-to protein powder. It's best mixed in a blender, but can be mixed in a shaker cup (shake well). You should be aiming for 1g of protein/lb of body weight. Ex. If you weight (or want to weigh) 150lbs, you should be aiming for 150g of quality protein/day. "

"TUDCA is a go-to favourite of mine to help open up the bile-duct and purge toxins (and parasites) from the liver. It helps make things 'more slippery' which get's problems moving out of your system. Even if you don't have a gallbladder (from removal surgery), this can still benefit you. Bile (stored in your liver and gallbladder) is essential for hormone and cholesterol balance. If it is slow moving, your whole body will feel sluggish, bogged down and fall out of homeostasis (aka balance, and we all want to feel in balance). TUDCA is a bile-acid derivative that supports liver health, helping the body process toxins more efficiently and reducing stress on the liver. It also promotes healthy bile flow, which can improve digestion, nutrient absorption, and overall gut comfort. TUDCA is known for its strong cell-protective (cytoprotective) properties—helping protect liver cells from inflammation and supporting healthier metabolic function. Many clients notice improved digestion, better tolerance to higher-fat meals, and a general feeling of improved wellness while using it consistently. It’s typically well-tolerated, works best when taken daily, and can be used as short-term support or part of a longer-term health routine depending on goals."

"Electrolytes - these are like the battery of your body! They're also a delicious way to ensure you're getting adequate hydration into your cells (drinking water alone may not be enough to actually hydrate your body). These handy individual packets are a great way to ensure you're staying hydrated through the holiday season wether that be forgetting to drink, holding out for long car rides, or consuming alcohol instead of water (we've all done this). Electrolytes also help replenish after a night over overindulging (if you know what I mean). "
