Ab Carver Pro Review 2025: Is It Really Better Than a Regular Ab Wheel?

Tue, 14 Oct 2025 06:58:27 GMT

If you’ve been struggling to build a stronger core at home, chances are you’ve looked at ab wheels. They’re cheap, simple, and effective… but they also come with downsides: they wobble, they slip, and they’re not beginner-friendly.

That’s where the Perfect Fitness Ab Carver Pro comes in. In this Ab Carver Pro Review 2025, I’ll show you why this upgrade has become one of my favorite core workout tools.. and why it’s worth spending a little more compared to a $15 basic ab wheel.

What Makes the Ab Carver Pro Different?

Wider Base for Stability

Traditional ab wheels are narrow, which makes you wobble side to side. The Ab Carver Pro fixes this with a wider base, so you can stay balanced and actually focus on your abs. I feel that it hits the sides(obliques) better because of this.

Built-In Resistance
The internal kinetic engine adds resistance as you roll out and assistance as you roll back. Translation? You get a tougher workout going out, but safer support coming back in. It feel smooth and allows you to do less reps/sets.

Ergonomic Handles

The handles are angled and padded, which takes pressure off your wrists and helps you engage your core and arms better. You will definitely feel it in your triceps and shoulders too because of this.

My Experience Using the Ab Carver Pro

When I tested it for the first time, I noticed right away how much smoother the motion felt compared to a standard ab wheel.

The resistance made me feel my abs working harder on the rollout, but the support on the way back helped me keep good form and tension on my core.

I also like that it doesn’t feel like it’s going to slip out from under me.. something I’ve seen happen with cheaper wheels. For beginners, that’s a game changer.

You only need 1-2 sets of this to have an effective workout if you're pairing it with your other workouts.

Who Should Get the Ab Carver Pro?

Beginners who need extra stability
Women over 180 lbs (my core audience) who want safe, effective ab training at home
Anyone bored with planks and crunches and ready for a challenge.
Home gym users who need compact, affordable gear
Those looking to help tighten their belly and love handles.

Where to Buy the Ab Carver Pro

Final Thoughts

After testing it myself, I can confidently say the Ab Carver Pro is worth the upgrade over a basic ab wheel. The wider base, resistance and the fact it works your entire upper body make it more effective and way safer for beginners and advanced users alike.

If you’ve been looking for a way to do less and still get a flatter stomach this will help! (Paired with calories and protein of course)

Understanding Vitamin C: Symptoms, Food sources and functions

Tue, 16 Apr 2024 20:01:38 GMT

Introduction

Out of all the minerals in the body, calcium is the most abundant. Only 1% of the calcium in the body is used for blood clotting and parathyroid function. The rest is in bones and teeth.

Vitamin C works with several vitamins to create strong bones. As I have said in other posts, "All vitamins work together."

Some functions of Calcium in the Body

Regulates heartbeat
Regulates nutrients passing in and out of cells
Helps your body use iron
Maintains and builds bones

Calcium Deficiency Symptoms

Joint pain
Slow heart rate
PMS
Insomnia
High blood pressure

Food Sources

Getting your calcium from food is always better than getting it from a pill or capsule. Here is a list of some foods (from greatest to least amount of calcium)

Milk
Yogurt
Tofu (if it has calcium added)
Sardines
White beans
Chinese cabbage (Bok Choy)
Kale

Supplements ?

As I said above, vitamins are best received from food. This will always be the case.

However, if a supplement is a must, I trust New Chapters calcium supplement . It also has Magnesium, Vitamin K and Vitamin D which are important to use calcium to its potential.

Combine this supplement with eating some of the food above and you'll be well on your way to getting all the calcium and other nutrients that you need!

People Most Susceptible to a Calcium Deficiency

Those allergic to milk
Those lactose intolerant
Those who eat a high oxalic acid diet (potatoes, green leafy veggies etc)
High stress levels

Daily Dosage Requirement

The RDA for calcium is 1000-1200 mg per day. For reference, a small container of yogurt has about 200mg of calcium. A glass of milk will have about 250mg of calcium.

So, it will take a combination of food to reach the amounts you need. If food is not enough, consider using the supplement suggestion above!

Understanding Iodine: Deficiency symptoms, food sources and functions

Mon, 12 Feb 2024 00:46:28 GMT

Introduction

Iodine is a key mineral that can predict your health in later life. If levels are low, your health will suffer.

If levels are just right, your health will be good for a long time.

What does Iodine do in my body?

Iodine is responsible for several actions in our body. Including:

Thyroid health
Regulates metabolism
Helps with reproduction
Aids in brain development
Effects cholesterol levels in the body.

Symptoms of Iodine Deficiency

High blood pressure while pregnant
Irritability
Weight gain
Miscarriages
Deafness
Severe mental issues
Swollen thyroid gland

Food Sources Of Iodine (From greatest to least)

Seafood (like shrimp)
Grains
Eggs
Milk & Dairy
Mushrooms
Irish Moss/ Sea Moss
Seaweed

Are there people more likely to be deficient?

Babies born to mothers with low iodine
Anyone with hardened arteries
Lactating mothers
Pregnant women

How Much Iodine Do I Need?

The RDA for Iodine is 150 mcg. For reference, shrimp has around 40mcg of iodine. Wild shrimp will have even more!

Seaweed is a great source of Iodine as well. You get about 16 mcg for a 2 grams of dried seaweed. Sea moss is a great source as well.

An egg has about 25 mcg of iodine if you eat the entire yolk as well. Pasture raised, cage free eggs will have more iodine.

Supplements?

As you know, I am a fan of getting nutrients from food as much as possible!

However, I understand in come cases supplementation is necessary. The best supplement for Iodine is my Wild Purple Sea Moss Extract . One serving (1/2 tbsp gives you 25% of the RDA of iodine.)

It is made with purple sea moss & since it is already in liquid form, you won't have to worry about digestion or taking large pills. Extracts are more potent than capsules which means they are in your blood stream faster.

Withings scale review 2024

Sat, 06 Jan 2024 17:00:00 GMT

Listen, I have tried all kind of body scales the last 20 years! I can officially confirm that the Withings Body Scale is the best scale I have had.

I bought the Withings scale about 1.5 years ago because it was sleek and claimed to be the most accurate scale. With skepticism, I ordered it.

Even as a nutritionist it gives me valuable insight into my journey that I could have figured out on my own, but it would have taken time. I was also surprised at the accuracy of body fat and muscle mass.

Previous scales would assume that losing weight automatically meant a loss in body fat% as well. This scale does not and that is the best way to tell if a scale is accurate!

Sometimes, I will gain weight but lose fat on my body. Previous scale would not show me this information. For people who are discouraged by not seeing results, this scale can provide insight that shows you are getting results despite a few extra pounds.

On the flip side, sometimes I lose weight but actually gain fat on my body. This is not good in terms of metabolism and can indicate you are not eating enough.

Connecting this scale to wifi is a breeze and the battery life lasts over a year! Once connected to wifi you can see data like this:

As you can see in one screenshot she is losing muscle and the other picture she is losing fat. For someone, interested in toning (especially the stomach area), this is critical information!

Insight like this can help you tailor your diet and workouts to losing fat vs just losing weight. There is a big difference. If you want to tone up and have a shape, or "look" in mind then losing fat is more important than losing weight.

Overall, I would give this scale a 9.5/10. I don't have the fanciest version, only the base model. I am sure the best scale they have is a 10 and I look forward to getting it! Stay tuned for my video review!

Magnesium: Symptoms, food sources & functions

Tue, 21 Nov 2023 03:26:37 GMT

Introduction

Our bodies don't have much magnesium, but whatever quantity is there is imperative! Magnesium is important as a cofactor for over a hundred enzymes and it is involved in over 300 metabolic reactions.

Magnesium is responsible for detoxification, heart rhythm and aids in synthesis of our DNA and RNA. Magnesium is a big deal!

Let's go deeper

Magnesium Deficiency Symptoms

- Personality changes

- Confusion

- Random spells of nausea

- High blood pressure

- Heart attacks

- Moody

- Hard of hearing

Food Sources of Magnesium (from greatest to least)

- Green leafy veggies

- Grass fed milk (but even non grass fed is okay)

- Wheat germ

- Oat bran

- Seafoods (especially mackerel

- Banana

People Most Susceptible to a Magnesium Deficiency:

- Diabetics

- Alcoholics

- GI disorders

- People who have a long history of using diuretics

- Older people

- Those eating a high carb/ high sugar diet

How much magnesium do I need?

Warning! Taking too much magnesium can cause overdose. This is one reason why I recommend getting magnesium from food and not pills. Please take heed to my warnings!

The RDA for magnesium is 315-400mg. For reference, a banana has about 30mg of magnesium. If you have any of the conditions mentioned above you may need to adjust your amounts accordingly

For one on one direction, schedule a call with me to boost your magnesium through food.

Supplements?

This vitamin is best to get from food and not supplements or pills. However, if you must get a magnesium supplement try to make sure that it is a liquid and not a pill, if possible.

The supplement I would recommend is from Trace Minerals Research and the reason I am recommending it is because it is one of few supplements that are a liquid. (They are always best)

Second reason is because it has other trace minerals like boron and potassium naturally occuring from the sea!

In love with your health,

Vitamin D: Symptoms, Food Sources, functions & more

Mon, 20 Nov 2023 01:31:29 GMT

Introduction- Vitamin D: The vitamin & Hormone ⬇️

Vitamin D or Cholecalciferol. The name has "chole" attached to it because cholesterol is tied to it...meaning you need cholesterol to have good Vitamin D and vice-versa. ��

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that has two forms: vitamin D2 and vitamin D3. Fat soluble means that the vitamin requires proper amounts of fat to be absorbed properly- they are stored in fatty tissue.

Although many doctors may give an injection/pill of the vitamin D2 form, this form doesn’t have long-lasting effects in the body. The body prefers vitamin D3, which you can only get from the sun and animal products naturally. Vitamin D is the only vitamin that can be obtained from sunshine – and the only vitamin that is considered a hormone.

Vitamin D2 may be found in some plant foods as well as some supplements. Vitamin D3 is found in animal foods, eggs, fish and in supplements. Be aware that the supplement Vitamin D3 is not always the same as getting it from food.

"The body prefers vitamin D3.. which you can only get from the sun and animal products naturally. "

Core functions of Vitamin D:

- Immune system health. Having low vitamin D greatly reduces your immunity.

- Helps develop and maintain healthy Lungs

- Helps keep your arteries healthy

- Strong bones

- Teeth health

Symptoms of Low Vitamin D

- More susceptible to colds and flu

- Sexually Transmitted Diseases

- Muscle weakness

- Back aches and/or overall body pain

- Depression/suicidal thoughts

- Cognitive disorders

- High amounts of Inflammation in body

- High blood pressure

- Being Bow-legged

- Heart Disease

- Heart Failure

- Stroke

- Arteriosclerosis

Some food Sources of Vitamin D2 and D3 (From greatest to least)

- Cod Liver Oil

- Salmon

- Sardines

- Mackerel

- Tuna

- Liver

- Mushrooms (Vitamin D2)

How much Vitamin D do I need?

The RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) for Vitamin D was 400mg for decades. But it has recently risen to 600 - 800 IU per day.

For reference: Wild salmon has around 900IU of Vitamin D3 ..which satisfies your requirement for the day. One cup of white mushrooms has about 5IU of Vitamin D2. I love mushrooms and they are healthy but they are not a great source of Vitamin D- especially since it is Vitamin D2.

Get your vitamins from food when you can. The pill and the real food is not the same!

How much Vitamin D can also vary based on your current health. For example, people with erectile dysfunction may need more Vitamin D , so do diabetics! So, make sure you consult with a nutritionist to get custom numbers for your body.

Supplements?

The only supplement I really love that can help with Vitamin D is wild cod liver oil . I personally use the Carlson brand capsules. But if you don't mind the taste of fish oil you can get the liquid too.

Conclusion

Studies have shown that Vitamin D deficiency is a global issue that effects billions and can effect both young and older people.

You should be tested for Vitamin D deficiency at least every season. Winter, Spring, Fall, and Summer. A blood test is used to measure vitamin D levels in the body called 25 hydroxyvitamin D.

Many doctors are now testing their patients for vitamin D levels, especially if the patient asks for the test. Make sure to request a follow up in 3-4 months.

If you need creative and easier ways to increase your Vitamin D levels and getting healthier please schedule a 1 on 1 call below.

Iron: Deficiencies, Anemia,& symptoms

Mon, 20 Nov 2023 00:29:47 GMT

Introduction

Iron is found in hundreds of enzymes and proteins in the body. Iron, in the human body, is found attached to protein. When it combines with protein and copper, the result is hemoglobin. Over 65% of the iron in the body is tied-up in hemoglobin.

Functions of Iron in the Body

- Helps create hemoglobin, which delivers oxygen to the body cells

- Performs important immune system functions

- Helps create myoglobin

Iron Deficiency Symptoms

- Fatigue

- Cold hands and feet

- Poor immune system

- Constipation

- Brittle Nails

- Pale skins

Food Sources of Iron (From greatest to least)

- Liver

- Oysters

- Beef

- Tongue (yes the tongue from an animal)

- Potato (non heme iron)

- Prune Juice (non heme iron)

People More Likely to have an Iron Deficiency

- High intake of coffee or tea.

- Menstruating women (Women need more iron during, before, or after menstrual cycles )

How much Iron should I take per day?

Iron is complex and must involve several test. Simply looking at the hemoglobin and iron levels is not a good enough test for iron deficiency.

It’s important to not depend on taking iron supplements as the iron can accumulate in the body and cause toxicity. If this happens, the skin may turn gray and the person will be severely out of breath, lose weight, experience dizziness, have headaches and have low energy.

You will likely need to incorporate food and supplements. In order to avoid iron overload, get your iron mostly from food! When there is a deficiency, it generally takes about 3-6 months to overcome it with the aid of supplements and food.

Bonus: Adding food with vitamin c will boost your absorption of Iron. So if the average person gets .7 mg from a potato, someone who eats food with vitamin C will get closer to 1mg than someone who didn't. So, adding orange juice with steak will improve iron absorption.

The RDA for iron is 8 mg and nearly double for women. Even higher for pregnant women (About 25-30mg) depending on the case.

If you need creative help with getting more iron from food and supplements please schedule a call below. I can help you better if I know what food you eat and don't eat.

Understanding Vitamin K

Sun, 19 Nov 2023 23:49:33 GMT

Introduction

Vitamin K is an essential nutrient. We have only known about Vitamin K for about 100 years, but it's role is imperative to overall health. Around 1920 we learned that lacking in Vitamin K can cause serious issues!

It's important to note that there are (3) kinds of Vitamin K. Vitamin K1, K2 and K3.

What’s The Difference Between Vitamin K1 and K2 in the Body?

Vitamin K1 and K2 are fat-soluble and can be synthesized by your microflora in the gut. Vitamin K3 is menadione, a synthetic version that can be toxic to the kidneys and liver, is often given to babies at birth. Synthetic vitamin K toxicity occurs only with synthetic forms. The symptoms of toxicity are flushing, sweating. and chest constrictions. There is no toxic dose of vitamin K1 and K2.

A vegan diet can lack Vitamin K2 because it is mostly found in animal products. Unless you eat natto, which is a fermented soybean commonly eaten in Japan, you aren't getting much Vitamin K2. Not to mention, it also taste terrible...one of the worst things I have ever had. But, they eat it in large amounts in Japan!

Vitamin K1 helps clogged arteries. Vitamin K2 works w/ vitamin D in calcium metabolism. But it's important to understand that they both work together; they are holding hands the entire time.

Without vitamin K2, you can easily end up with plaque in the arteries and on teeth. It’s the most potent inhibitor of vascular calcification. The elasticity in your arteries improves with this vitamin, as does high blood pressure.

Here are additional functions of vitamin K

- Helps clean out calcified joints

- Helps fight oxidation

- Helps liver function

- Strong bones

- Reduces risk of plaque forming on arteries

*In one study, those who had consumed the most K2 had a 50% reduced risk of calcification and 50% reduced risk for heart attacks. (Rotterdam study) In the Gast study, vitamin K2 intake was the form of vitamin K that protected against cardiovascular events.

Signs you may be deficient in Vitamin K

- Miscarriages

- Plaque on arteries (high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease etc)

- Long menstrual cycles

- Clots in menstrual blood

- Kidney Stones

Foods Sources For Vitamin K

K1 is in leafy grasses. (Called phylloquinone, phtyomenadione, and phytonadione)

Anything that is green will have Vitamin K1. (Note: Cooking seems to increase Vitamin K. For example, cooking your spinach gives you more vitamin K than the amount found in raw spinach.)

Vitamin K2 is the animal source of the vitamin. It’s the main storage form in animals. It’s called menaquinone, MK-4, MK-7 (found in fermented foods from Bacillus bacteria, too)

- Milk

- Hard cheeses

- Cheese sourced from Europe where the animal eats grass

- Natto (fermented soy product mentioned earlier)

- Green leafy veggies (Vitamin K1)

- Kelp (Vitamin K1)

- Cabbage (Vitamin K1)

What Are Some Things That Cause Deficiencies?

- Aspirin

- Consuming mineral oils

- Low fat diets

- Overuse of X-Rays

- Poor gut bacteria

**Those taking antibiotics also need more Vitamin K

How Much Do I Need Daily ?

75-130 mcg/day is the minimum amount you need but this number can increase if you are deficient or have digestive issues. The average daily intake in diets is 300-500 mcg if they eat a varied diet. Problems occur when people have digestive issues or eat limiting diets such as being vegan, carnivore etc.

How Can You Increase Your Vitamin K?

- Eat more green leafy vegetables, cooking them with fat when you can

- Eat more fermented foods: cheeses, yogurts, sauerkraut

- Supplement with probiotics (Still combine these with some foods from above)

- Supplement with vitamin K combination products that are made from food and/or bacteria. (Still combine these with some foods from above)

- Consult with an experienced nutritionist who has a background in blood work.

**Note: The only test that gives doctors an indication of your vitamin K status is a test for clotting time. The issue is, the test is only done if there are spontaneous nosebleeds or it took too long to stop bleeding from a wound. Clotting function is a process controlled by homeostasis, and it has to be very disrupted in order to show up. All the other functions in the body are disrupted long before clotting is disrupted!

Fat Burners Explained

Mon, 20 Dec 2021 15:50:46 GMT

Many people ask me Adam, do fat burners work?

Short answer: Yes they do. The caveat is that you still need to be in a caloric deficit to lose weight and burn fat.

I would even say that most fat burners work. But its about ingredients, when you take them and current diet.

Understanding Different Types Fat Burners

Let's first understand how fat burners work inside the body: Most of them are either a diuretic , thermogenic , appetite suppressant or metabolism booster . Sometimes, you can find one that has all!

Appetite suppressants work by reducing your need/ want for food or making you feel full quicker. The problem is, when you stop taking appetite suppressants they will bring on your appetite back with a vengeance. So be careful

Diuretics are supplements that make you release water more efficiently. Either by sweat or urination. If you choose to use a diuretic make sure you are drinking more water than normal to decrease risk of dehydration. The weight you lose with diuretics is water weight which will likely come back. This is why I would recommend using a fat burner that is a diuretic and metabolism booster.

Metabolism boosters are fat burners that boost your metabolism & increase the number of calories you burn while resting. This is the best fat burner to use. That means you burn more calories, watching tv, sitting, driving to work than you do without it.

How do I know fat burners are safe?

Always go with the fat burner that has less ingredients. If you look on the back and you see 15-20 ingredients then you are risking your product being cheaply made and potentially unsafe.

In general, I recommend a fat burner to have 5 ingredients or less.

What are some good fat burners ?

3rd Place- Hydroxycut.

Hydroxycut has a lot of natural ingredients in it, including coffee and shitake mushrooms!

The reason it made the list is because most of the ingredients are natural, however it does have some synthetic ingredients. It has over 25 ingredients. ( Read above for my recommendation on ingredient number)

One of the cons of the product is that it is primarily caffeine-based which can trigger some anxious feelings in some people. This means you will need to avoid caffeine consumption while taking this product.

Also, since they are capsules the body will not absorb everything inside the capsule, especially if you have digestive issues. You need to take 4 pills per day in order to see the full benefits of this product and you can purchase a bottle for anywhere between $38-$45

Overall, I would give Hydroxycut a 7/10 . If they had more natural ingredients and les synthetic it would easily be an 8

2nd Place- Animal pak fat burners.

It comes with each day wrapped individually. So, one pack would have 8 pills you would need to take for the day...which I didn't like.

Personally, I don't like taking pills. Especially 8....They are hard to get down and the absorption rate is awful. Remember, you have to digest the capsule first before you get to the ingredients inside!

Also, it takes too long for me to take pills. I need water and a place to store the pills safely...

Just as with hydroxycut they have a mix of synthetic ingredients & natural ingredients. About 20 ingredients total.

If you don't mind taking 8 pills per day then you may want to try it!

You can purchase animal paks for $42-$50

1st Place - Clean Burn YP Extract

The reason it made number 1 was simple: It only has 3 ingredients. Which is extremely rare in the supplement industry for a fat burner.

The ingredients are proven to be thermogenic. The best part is that its a liquid extract unlike the animal pak and hydroxycut. Which means faster & easier digestion along with being easier to take.

Extracts are more powerful than pills because the contents have already been extracted.

One con in this supplement is the taste for some people. Since it is 100% herbal taste will not be great. The good news is; the amount you need to take is small. Just drop the liquid on your tongue. You can also add it to your water if you can deal with the taste.

You will need to cycle this fat burner. Take it for a period and then rest for a period. I would recommend only taking this fat burner for 2-3 weeks. Then take 1-2 weeks off and start again.

This fat burner does not have any caffeine, so you can drink coffee while on it. In fact, you can even add the droppers to your coffee for a powerful fat burning morning coffee.

You can purchase the clean burn YP in our store.

Now that you have a better understanding of fat burners, make a decision based on the factors important to you. Share this article with friends who may be interested in trying a fat burner.

Remember! No matter which supplement you pick you need to begin eating better and more importantly you must be in a caloric deficit to lose weight!

If you need help with being in a caloric deficit schedule a call with me for free and I will see if you are a good fit for my ultimate fat loss program!

Side Effects Of Your Prescription Drugs

183:802956456 (Adam Burton) — Tue, 24 Nov 2020 16:42:05 GMT

How are herbs alternative medicine when they were here first?

It’s so wild to me that people can be on medications for 25 years and never look up the side effects.

But if you mention an herb.. they will google the side effects.

This is the mental conditioning I speak of. They made us fear plants that grow out of the ground yet we willingly take drugs made in labs.

Something to think about:

According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, 2,461 people in the United States are killed by prescription drugs every WEEK.

This means that almost 10,000 people die each month from a “medicine” their own doctor prescribed to them.

Do you need to ask your doctor before taking herbs?

Tue, 27 Oct 2020 15:16:15 GMT

Why Do They Tell Us To Ask Your Doctor First?

The average doctor does not know how to use burdock root correctly. The average doctor does not know about Equisetum leaves.

Yet, they will tell you to avoid it. Why are we so quick to prescribe drugs that we know has no nutritional value?

Why are doctors let off the hook for prescribing drugs that are harming hundreds of thousands of people?

The worse part, most people who suffer don’t even think it’s the “medicine” when in reality the medicine is causing most of the symptoms, anxiety and pain they are feeling.

An FDA approved drug means absolutely nothing. Too many people die each year from prescription drugs for us to be silent about!

The more prescription drugs a person takes & the longer they take them, the more rapidly their health deteriorates. Any doctor will tell you this. But people are conditioned not to ask docs questions.

For context, according to The Journal of Patient Safety:

Between 210,000 and 440,000 people who go to the hospital for care “suffer some type of preventable harm that contributes to their death”

This includes misdiagnosis & medication. Medical errors are an under-recognized cause of death. Even properly prescribed drugs cause about 1.9 million hospitalizations per year.

If 200-400k people die from medical errors, this means more people die from medical errors than diabetes(83k) & stroke (149k) combined. Take this into consideration

Too much talk about masks. Not enough about the immune system

183:802956456 (Adam Burton) — Thu, 23 Jul 2020 15:16:21 GMT

This is a subtitle for your new post

A lot of talk about masks but not enough talk about improving the immune system.

Not enough talk about supplementing with raw elderberry daily.

Not enough talk about cellular repair.

Not enough talk about garlic extact being anti-viral.

Not enough talk about drinking real herbal tea daily.

Not enough talk about increasing iron in the diet to help the bodies immune system. Low iron means low oxygen. (The lungs need oxygen)

Do we really believe wearing a mask protects us more than building our immune system?

Once again they have convinced us to treat the SYMPTOM instead of the ROOT ISSUE.

Building Your Immune System For Covid - 19

183:802956456 (Adam Burton) — Thu, 23 Jul 2020 15:10:56 GMT

This is a subtitle for your new post

Honestly, I am kind of upset.

I don’t understand why people say washing your hands and sanitizing is the best way to prevent the spread of germs and getting sick.

It may be ONE way, but I am not sure if it is the BEST way.

The best way to stop the spread of germs and not getting sick is to boost your immune system.

As soon as you wash your hands, germs are IMMEDIATELY back on your hands. You have to touch a light switch, the door, your phone ...something! You’ll never be germ free

Why not focus on building the immune system? I mean... this is exactly what the system is built for. But it needs the right material to protect itself.

The immune system is the #1 factor for determining if you get sick. We should be working on building that up. Everyday we should be building the immune system via some type of herbal methods.

What Is A Holistic Nutritionist?

Thu, 16 Jul 2020 00:08:35 GMT

Most people don’t understand what it means to be a Holistic Nutritionist & herbalist. By the time a disease sets in and you receive a diagnosis, there has been an ongoing problem for a while.

In order for diseases to show up, a certain percentage of cells have to become dysfunctional. For example, in the case of heart disease, specifically hardening of the arteries, the amount of plaque must reach 90% or greater before it’s clinically diagnosed.

My job as a Holistic Nutritionist is to help your cells return to normal before it is too late. I accomplish this through a combination of nourishment and cellular detoxification strategies.

Nourishment involves using high-density food and supplements. Detoxification is using different herb combinations and nutrients to repair and support different organ systems in the body. The focus is more about repairing cells and less about cleansing.

Once cells are nourished, they will begin to start reproducing in a healthy way again. This will take time and my job is to make this process successful and worthwhile. Let’s stop treating the symptoms and instead eradicate the cause.

With love,

Adam The Nutritionist

Understanding Your Immune System

183:802956456 (Adam Burton) — Thu, 04 Jun 2020 17:07:05 GMT

This is a subtitle for your new post

Reminder: When babies crawl on the floor and put their hands in their mouth they are building their immune system.

When a baby comes out the womb it has almost no immune system but it is developed by touching and interacting with the elements around, touching their eyes, mouth etc

The more you expose your body to antigens, viruses and bacteria the stronger your immune system gets. (We’ve known this for years)

We are exposed to millions of bacteria and viruses daily. We shake hands, we touch doorknobs , light switches etc.

When you stop having this interaction with people and the outside world - the immune system goes down

So we are using Lysol wipes to kill the exact things we need to survive long-term. (If you have a normal functioning immune system you need interaction!)

As we come out of shelter and start back trading viruses and bacteria what do you think will happen with a lower immune system ? ��

Calories: 1100 , Carbs: 45, Protein: 90 grams and Fat: 40

Macronutrient breakdown: Carb: 20% Protein: 40% Fat: 40%

Analysis A: When you eat like person A sure you will lose weight in the beginning because the calories are lower. This is a recipe for adaptive thermogenesis... Also... look at the numbers. 60% of your total calories consumed, come from carbs. This is not a winning formula, especially when you want to tone up.

Analysis B : Notice woman B eats slightly more. BUT... the source of her calories are different. See, your body uses different nutrients differently. Your body uses protein for its job and it uses carbs for its job.

If you are eating low calorie but most of those calories, or even half of those calories are from carbs the body cannot use all of those carbs. They will be stored as fat. And the lower your calories the more fat you will store over time. Excess carbs turn into fat.

Hey! Hope you're having a wonderful Tuesday afternoon!

I woke up this morning with this heavy on my mind..

Did you know that it is estimated that about 350-500,000 people die each year from medical errors and prescription medication combined?

What's so crazy is that this is just the people who REPORT accidents. Imagine the ones who don't.

If so, this would make it the 3rd leading cause of death behind cancer..wow!

Your body is too precious to not check and go over the side effects on your own.

I want to leave you with 2 questions just to get you thinking a little bit.

1. We talk about certain diseases being apart of our DNA �� but we forget the part about how certain food �� can alter and damage your DNA ��. How is disease a coincidence when we know certain food can turn off or turn on a disease ?

2. How are we not more educated on herbs and holistic practices when we know some herbs have the power to protect, alter, and repair DNA? When the correct herb is used properly, they also have very little, if any of the side effects of the medicine we use now.

You can either respond with your opinion below in the comments or just think about the answer silently in your head.

In love with your health,
