What Jennifer Woodward Taught Me about Breast Implant Illness May 24, 2022

Show notes

This is an open and non-judgemental conversation from someone who has been through breast implant removal.

Jennifer Woodward is a certified Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist and a Board Certified Functional Wellness Coach who got breast implants when she was newly married at 19 and could never quite get to the level of health that she was wanting to achieve.

Jennifer knew something was off and felt led to do more research on breast implant illness.

What she learned through this process is that if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is and she couldn't be more right.

Improving Fascial Tissue with Collagen Peptides May 17, 2022

Show notes

I'm just going to say it: I believe that collagen peptides is the tool your fascial tissue needs to be stronger.

Without collagen peptides, you won't be able to assist your body in preventing aches and pains, decreasing inflammation, and living your healthiest life.

That's why I'm excited to share with you some research I found on collagen because I truly believe it's important for aging women to understand.

In this conversation, I go over:

How to enhance the function of your fascia
Why it's important, and
How collagen peptides rejuvenate the whole body

I LOVE geeking out over this amazing information with you to enhance your overall health.

I'm sure you'll learn a lot about how fascial tissue functions with the help of collagen peptides, so let's listen in now!

BIG news: I have released my very own supplement line. It features my go-to products that I include in my own health routine to optimally improve the function of my body. This product line includes collagen peptides, liposomal vitamin C, a multivitamin, magnesium, omegas, and branched amino acids.

Why going harder won't surpass the core of your health issues
Insight into her nighttime routine to prioritize sleep

*Sounds cool, right?! It is!*
