For aches and pains, we always look at food first because food is often the number one thing causing inflammation which leads to pain—we’re talking cutting out sugar in all its forms, including bread and pasta. If you need help getting off sugar or processed carbs, we suggest meeting with one of our nutritionists who have some tips and tricks for making big changes stick.

If you’re eating right and still feeling achy, we’d suggest the following supplements.

Omega-3

Omega-3 can reduce inflammation in joints, arteries and the brain. For an adequate amount, we suggest taking two soft gels with breakfast and two with dinner.

OsteoVantiv

If it’s joints that are bothering you, we’d recommend OsteoVantiv. OsteoVantiv also has collagen within it, which helps to strengthen and make cartilage, ligaments and tendons.

Magnesium Glycinate

If you’re low on magnesium, you’re probably not sleeping well. If you’re not sleeping well, everything starts aching in your body. We recommend 400 to 800mg about a half hour before bedtime.
