⭐️ Nutrients for neurodiversity
Omega 3 fats are important for mood, behaviour regulation and cognition. Studies show that people with autism and ADHD have lower levels of these important fats. Increasing intake of omega 3 may improve social interaction, repetitive behaviours, sleep quality and symptoms of depression.
Omega 3 is also vital for vision, skin & hair, hormone balance, immune function and cardiovascular health.

⭐️ Nutrients for Neurodiversity
A study in children aged 7-12 with ADHD showed that simply taking a multivitamin for 10 weeks had improved attention, aggression and emotional regulation.
Neurodiverse patients typically have lower levels of vitamin D, vitamin B12 and choline which are important nutrients for mood and brain function.
Zinc is vital for the production of melatonin which prepares us for sleep. Low levels of magnesium can lead to increased anxiety, low mood and poor sleep quality.

Magnesium L-threonate is a highly absorbable form of magnesium, specifically formulated to effectively cross the blood-brain barrier.
It is widely used to support cognitive function, memory, learning, and sleep quality by increasing magnesium concentrations in the brain, often recommended for brain health and to reduce anxiety or stress.

Research suggests it can boost synaptic density and improve memory and learning, particularly in older adults.
It may protect against cognitive decline and aid in managing depression or ADHD symptoms.
Known to help improve sleep quality and ease relaxation.

Magnesium L-Threonate is unique because it targets the central nervous system more effectively than other magnesium types, which mainly benefit muscular or skeletal health.

Vitamin D3 and K2 work together to maintain strong bones and cardiovascular health. Vitamin D3 increases calcium absorption, while vitamin K2 ensures that calcium binds to bones and teeth rather than depositing in arteries or soft tissues

Vitamin K2 contributes to normal blood clotting & the maintenance of normal bones. It helps to carry calcium into the bones, and a deficiency in this vitamin allows the calcium to be deposited onto the arteries and soft tissues of the body causing the hardening of the arteries and other cardiovascular concerns.

Vitamin K is fat soluble, so if your diet incorporates very little fat then deficiencies are very likely. Drinking even moderate amounts of alcohol can have an effect on the liver which reduces the storage of vitamin K. Taking antibiotics or statins which affect gut can also cause a vitamin K deficiency.

Hayfever season is coming. 🌱🍃🪴
Boost your immunity and manage histamine levels by supplementing in advance.

Quercetin works as a natural antihistamine by stabilizing mast cells, reducing the release of histamine, and suppressing allergic responses.

Beta-carotene, converted to vitamin A in the body, may help manage hay fever by supporting mucous membrane health and reducing inflammation. Rich in antioxidants, it is often recommended to strengthen the immune system against allergy symptoms.
