Renew Life Ultimate Flora Probiotic ($24)
One probiotic a day can keep belly ache and bloat away. Probiotics are live bacteria and yeasts that are considered “healthy” or “good” bacteria to introduce to your digestive tract. These supplements can reduce inflammation in the gut, prevent certain illnesses, improve your skin, and regulate your bowel movements. But probiotics are only the first step: it’s also important to eat a diet rich in whole foods with plenty of fiber and protein.
Emergen-C ($15.87)
Vitamin C is one of the most important nutrients needed to repair and grow tissues in your body. It’s like armor for your immune system and can protect you against cardiovascular disease, eye conditions, and even premature aging of the skin--vitamin C is crucial for creating new, healthy collagen that keeps skin firm and youthful. Most importantly, perhaps, vitamin C combats free radicals in our bodies that can damage cells.
Mix one packet of Emergen-C powder into a glass of water and create a delicious morning drink that provides a slew of health benefits.
Green Tea Extract ($17.85)
Green tea extract contains a wealth of antioxidants that include catechins and EGCGs that can boost your metabolism and increase fat burning. These antioxidants can also decrease inflammation in the body and reduce your blood pressure. If you exercise in the morning, there’s even more good news: green tea extracts protect against oxidative stress and put off the occurrence of muscle fatigue, which can enhance your workout.
