You don’t lack motivation.
You might lack cofactors.

Energy production depends on B vitamins. If stress is high and recovery is low, this is one of the first places I look.

CanPrev BioActive B
What it’s for:

BioActive B is a complete B-complex formulated in metabolically active forms. That means your body doesn’t have to convert it in the liver before using it. It’s designed for energy production, stress resilience, nervous system support, red blood cell formation, and metabolic function.

This is not just “an energy vitamin.”
It supports cellular energy at the mitochondrial level.

Who it’s ideal for:

• People under chronic stress
• Mental fatigue or burnout
• Low daytime energy
• Brain fog
• High performers
• Anyone recovering from illness or intense training
• Individuals with poor absorption or MTHFR variants
• Those who drink alcohol regularly (which depletes B vitamins)

B vitamins are water-soluble and not stored long-term, meaning they need to be replenished daily.

Best time to take:

✔ Morning is ideal
✔ Can also be taken at lunch
Avoid taking late evening, as it may feel energizing for some people.

With or without food?

Best taken with food to support absorption and reduce nausea.
If using the liquid, it can be taken with breakfast or added to a small amount of water.

Why the “BioActive” form matters:

Many standard B-complex formulas contain inactive forms that must be converted in the liver.
BioActive B uses body-ready forms for faster uptake and better utilization, especially during periods of physical or mental stress.

Flush-free formula
Available in liquid or capsules

From Kitchen Scraps to Nutrition Powerhouse: The Ultimate Green Goddess Dressing
That sad little bunch of herbs in your crisper? Those garlic cloves and that half-empty container of Parmesan? They’re about to become your new favorite way to add serious nutrition to your meals.
Here’s the thing about herbs most people don’t realize: those “wilting” greens are still packed with phytonutrients, antioxidants, and compounds that support everything from digestion to hormone balance. We’re so quick to toss them, but they’re actually nutritional gold.
The No-Waste Green Goddess Recipe
Grab whatever herbs you have on hand - parsley, cilantro, basil, dill, chives, even those arugula leaves that are looking a bit tired. The beauty of this dressing is that it works with any combination.
Blend together:
∙ 1-2 cups mixed herbs (stems and all - don’t waste them!)
∙ 2-3 garlic cloves
∙ 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
∙ 1/4 cup olive oil or avocado oil
∙ 2 tablespoons lemon juice or apple cider vinegar
∙ 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt or cottage cheese (adds protein and creaminess)
∙ Salt and pepper to taste
∙ Splash of water to thin if needed
Blend until smooth. That’s it.

Why Is My Body Holding onto Weight Around My Middle?
If you’re in midlife and noticing your body is storing more weight around your abdomen, even though you’re eating the same and exercising the same, you’re not alone, and you’re not imagining it.
This is one of the most frustrating changes women experience during perimenopause and menopause.
So what’s actually happening?
As estrogen declines, your body shifts WHERE it stores fat. But there’s more:
✨ Insulin sensitivity decreases, making it easier to store belly fat
✨ Cortisol levels rise: stress + hormonal shifts = stubborn fat storage
✨ Muscle mass declines, slower metabolism, fewer calories needed
✨ Thyroid may be sluggish, even subtle issues contribute to weight gain
How do we address this?
💪 Prioritize Protein 25 to 35g per meal to support muscle and stable blood sugar
💪 Strength Train 3 to 4x per week. Cardio alone won’t cut it anymore.
💪 Balance Blood Sugar Fiber + protein + healthy fats at every meal. No more muffin and coffee breakfasts!
💪 Manage Stress High cortisol = stubborn belly fat. Find what works for YOU.
💪 Test, Don’t Guess Get comprehensive bloodwork: thyroid, insulin, cortisol, hormones, vitamin D.
The bottom line?
Your body has changed. What worked before might not work now. That doesn’t mean you’re broken, it means you need a different approach.
If you’re tired of fighting your body and want personalized support to understand what’s happening with YOUR hormones and metabolism, I’d love to help.

CanPrev Women – Adrenal Chill

What it’s for:
Adrenal Chill is formulated to support stress response and nervous system regulation. It contains clinically studied ashwagandha (KSM-66®) and L-theanine to help calm cortisol output, reduce feelings of overwhelm, and support resilience during chronic stress.

Who it’s ideal for:
• Women feeling wired but tired
• High stress schedules
• Poor stress tolerance
• Irritability from adrenal fatigue patterns
• Trouble winding down at night

Best time to take:
✔ Late morning or early afternoon for daytime stress
✔ Evening if stress impacts sleep

With or without food?
Can be taken with or without food.
If you have a sensitive stomach, take with food.

If you feel like your nervous system is “always on,” this is often a cortisol rhythm issue. Supporting the stress response gently can improve mood, energy stability, and sleep quality.

Women are often told to just “push through” stress and menopause.
But that doesn’t mean you have to.

Over the next few Wednesdays, I’ll be sharing supplements we carry in store, what they’re actually designed for, and how to take them properly.

Because guessing with supplements isn’t a strategy.

If at any point you’re wondering,
“Is this right for me?”

We do offer single consultation appointments where we can look at your symptoms, your goals, and your overall health picture before you invest in anything.

No pressure. Just clarity.

You can call the store at 506-632-1269 to book, or stop in and we’ll get you booked in.

Heart health isn’t built in one meal — it’s built in the everyday choices ❤️

When your meals are rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, you naturally reduce things linked to heart concerns like excess saturated fats, trans fats, cholesterol, and sodium. And what you add in matters just as much — fiber, antioxidants, potassium, and omega-3s that help support a strong, resilient heart.

No extremes. No perfection. Just smart, nourishing choices that add up over time.

One plate at a time. One habit at a time.
Your heart will thank you 💚
