WHEY PROTEIN 101 💪🥛

There are several types of whey protein, and understanding the differences can help you choose the one that best supports your goals and digestion.

Whey Protein Concentrate
• 50–80% protein
• ~3–5 g lactose per scoop
• Less processed and often creamier
Best for: everyday nutrition and smoothies.

Whey Protein Isolate
• 90%+ protein
• ~0.5–1 g lactose
• Lower carbs and fat and easier to digest
Best for: lean muscle and sensitive digestion.

Hydrolyzed Whey
• 90%+ protein
• ~0–0.5 g lactose
• Pre-digested protein for faster absorption
Best for: athletes and recovery.

Why lactose matters 🥛
Lactose is the natural milk sugar in dairy. Some people may experience bloating, gas, or stomach discomfort. Choosing isolate or enzyme-enhanced whey can sometimes help reduce these symptoms.

Why enzymes are added 🧬
Some whey proteins include digestive enzymes such as lactase, protease, and amylase. These may help break down lactose, improve protein digestion, reduce bloating, and support amino acid absorption.

How much protein do we need?

General guidelines:
• Sedentary adults: ~0.8 g per kg body weight
• Active adults: ~1.2–1.6 g per kg
• Strength training: ~1.6–2.2 g per kg

Protein supports muscle repair, immune function, hormone and enzyme production, blood sugar balance, and satiety.

If you're unsure which whey protein is best for you, come chat with our Registered Holistic Nutritionist at Comox Pharmasave. We carry several types and can help you find the right one for your goals and digestion.

🦷 Did you know your dental health could affect your mental health? 🧠

Most people think of dental care as something that only protects their smile, but research shows your oral health may also influence how you feel emotionally.

Inflammation in the gums can trigger systemic inflammation, including in the brain. Stress hormones and even the way we feel about our smile and self-confidence can also impact mood and mental well-being.

Gum disease, chronic inflammation, and ongoing dental pain can contribute to things like anxiety, depression, brain fog, and fatigue. The mouth and brain are more connected than we often realize.

Supporting strong teeth, gums, and bones is an important part of overall health. Proper nutrition plays a key role, including nutrients such as Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Selenium, and Phosphorus.

Truehope BMD Advanced is designed to support bone management and development, helping maintain healthy bones, cartilage, teeth, and gums while also helping prevent deficiencies in key minerals and vitamins that support overall wellness.

What makes Truehope BMD Advanced different is its broad spectrum formula that provides multiple bone-supporting minerals and vitamins together, helping the body use calcium more effectively rather than relying on calcium alone. The formula focuses on balanced mineral support for bones, teeth, and connective tissues.

Taking care of your mouth may be another way to support both your physical and emotional health.

Want better sleep? Start with better sleep hygiene. 🌙✨

Here are 10 simple habits that can help your body wind down naturally and support deeper, more restorative sleep.

🕰 Go to bed at the same time every night
Consistency helps regulate your internal clock.

📵 Turn off screens 1–2 hours before bed
Blue light can suppress melatonin.

☕ Stop caffeine after 3 pm
Caffeine can stay in your system for 6–8 hours.

🌙 Dim the lights in the evening
Lower lighting signals your brain that bedtime is approaching.

🛁 Take a warm bath or shower
The drop in body temperature afterward can help trigger sleepiness.

🌬 Try 9 slow belly breaths
Inhale 4 seconds • hold 4 seconds • exhale 8 seconds.

🤸 Do 10 minutes of gentle stretching
Release tension and relax the body.

📓 Write down tomorrow’s to-do list or gratitudes
Journaling can help clear your mind before bed.

🛏 Keep your bedroom cool, dark, and quiet
Your sleep environment matters more than most people realize.

🌿 Consider natural sleep supports if needed

At Comox Pharmasave we carry options like:
🌿 Magnesium (find the type that works best for you)
🍒 5-HTP (a precursor for melatonin)
🌙 Melatonin (often best to start with 1 mg)
🌼 Herbal sleep blends (magnesium, chamomile, passionflower & L-theanine)

Come chat with our team if you're looking for the right sleep support for you.

🌿 NEW at Comox Pharmasave: Irish Sea Moss! 🌿

Did you know Irish Sea Moss contains 15 of the 18 essential elements the human body needs and is often said to provide 92 of the 102 minerals the body uses? This ocean-grown superfood has become popular for supporting overall wellness from the inside out.

Why choose Sea Moss?

✨ Supports Thyroid Health
Irish sea moss is naturally rich in iodine, an important nutrient for thyroid function. A healthy thyroid helps regulate the hormones that control metabolism.

✨ Supports Collagen Production
Sea moss contains compounds that help support collagen formation, which can contribute to healthy skin, shiny hair, and overall skin elasticity. It has even been nicknamed “vegan collagen.”

✨ Balances the Gut
Sea moss contains fibre that acts as a prebiotic, feeding beneficial gut bacteria and helping support digestive health.

✨ Supports Immune Health
It’s rich in plant compounds that may help support immune function and reduce inflammation.

✨ Beauty from the Inside & Outside
Also known as Chondrus crispus, sea moss contains vitamin A and omega-3 fatty acids. Its antibacterial and antimicrobial properties can help support the skin microbiome and moisture retention. Many people add sea moss gel to smoothies or juices, and some even use it topically as a skincare ingredient.
